Official says
audit bill
not answer
By Jeremy Fitzpatrick
Senior Reporter
Although UNL is already in compliance
with legislation in Congress that would
require athletic departments to perform
and make public a yearly audit, a UNL athletic
official said he does not support the proposed
law.
The legislation, offered by Rep. Paul Henry,
R-Mich., is part of the Higher
Education amendments of
1992.
It would amend House
Resolution 3553 to require
universities that offer ath
letic scholarships to conduct
an annual audit of the total
revenues and expenditures of their athletic
departments and make that information avail
able to anyone who requested it.
A1 Papik, assistant athletic director for
administrative services, admitted that the pub
lic image of college athletics is not good but
said he did not think more federal legislation

Proposal
would link
institutions
School would instruct
education administrators
By Sarah Scalet
Staff Reporter_
proposal to establish a professional school
in Nebraska to train public education
administrators is in its early stages,
UNL officials said.
Ward Sybouts, a University of Nebraska
Lincoln educational administration professor,
said the proposal, initiated by the UNL Depart
ment of Educational Administration, would
unite five Nebraska post-secondary institutions
into one statewide program. This program would
help students attain higher levels of specializa
tion, he said.
However, the school would not be located at
one central location. Instead, Sybouts said, the
proposal would create one school with staff
statewide.
Sybouts said he believes the program would
be the only one of its kind in the education field
nationwide although similar programs exist in
medicine, dentistry and law.

A Playboy magazine photographer said
only the blustery season, not women’s
liberation, might deter interested UNL
women from applying to pose for Playboy.
“We get more calls during a warmer time of
year,” said David Chan, a
Playboy photographer. “A lot
of people think that they can’t
come up when their skin looks
white — they don’t know
what a camera can do for
them.”
Chan and two other Play
boy representatives began
interviewing University of Ncbraska-Lincoln
women Monday for a spot in a Playboy picto
rial on women of the Big Eight. They will be
interviewing until Wednesday.
Out of about 100 UNL women they antici
pate interviewing, three or four will be featured
in the April issue of Playboy along with women
from other Big Eight schools.
Chan said that he hasn’t received any nega
tive feedback yet but that it’s bound to come.
“But I think that’s great,” he said. “You
have a right to express yourself very freely,
especially in a higher education institution.”
Chan, who last interviewed women for a
Big Eight conference issue in 1982, said more
independent attitudes among women have
contributed to, rather than detracted from, the
quality of the magazine.
Now, women make their decisions about
whether to pose based on their own beliefs of
right and wrong, Chan said. The naturalness of
Playboy’s photographs reflect it, he said.
“If people think it’s OK, they’ll come here.
If not, they won’t— that’s the liberated woman,”
Chan said.
One woman, a UNL junior who was inter
viewed Monday by Playboy, said that, among
other reasons, her “wild and crazy streak” led
her to apply.
“And I was told if I did come here, they
wouldn’t even look at me, and I don’t believe
that,” she said. “I don’t want to sound con
ceited, but I do think that people would want to
look.”

The woman, who did not want to be identi
fied, said that posing for Playboy would proba
bly give her a greater sense of herself.
Cindy Douglas, the assistant to the coordi
nator at the Women’s Resource Center, said a
woman’s decision to pose in magazines such as
Playboy is one that is encouraged by an oppres
sivc society. _

Residence hall
meals called
more nutritious
By Yvonne A. Sabatka
Staff Reporter
and Stacey McKenzie
Senior Editor_ _
The UNL residence halls used
to serve about 6(X) portions of
Turkey Americana — a deep
fat fried turkey and cheese combina
tion — during one meal.
But Turkey Americana isn’t as
popular with students as it used to be,
said Anne Dumper, administrative
dietitian for the Office of University
Housing at Ihc University of Nebraska
Lincoln.
Students arc becoming more health
conscious in their diets, she said, and
arc substituting
fried foods high in
fat, such as Tur
key Americana,
with baked chicken
or fish.
“Now we serve
about 250 or 300”
portions of the turkey dish in one
meal. Dumper said.
Students’ tastes in general have
changed,she said.
“We don’t serve as many casse
role-type items,” she said. “People
arc more into sandwiches and things
that arc quick and easy.”
Kathleen Lehr, a registered dieti
cian and nutritionist at die University
Health Center, said students arc trying
to eat healthier than in the past.
