This is December?
John McQuinn, a legal adviser for the Lincoln Police Department, chose to leave his coat
behind for a walk downtown Thursday afternoon.
Hall

four commuter students would share
desk and closet space. Beds would be
removed.
“They could operate out of an office
on campus ... for the lime lhai
they’re here,” Gricscn said.
The proposal, initially targeted to
UNL freshmen who commute from
home, would be a more affordable
alternative to living in the residence
halls, Griesen said.
The students probably would be
required to cal at least five meals a
week in the cafeteria, he said. How
ever, Gricscn said, the cost probably
still would be under $5(X) a semester
because it would be split between
four people.
“It would be more of an on-cam
pus experience, but one that’s more
affordable,” he said.
Griesen, who initiated the idea,
said living on campus was a belter
experience for students than living at
home.
“Research is clear that students
who live on campus get more out of
college than students who do not,” he
said.
In the fall of 1990, 639 entering
freshman at UNL were from the Lin
coln-arca high schools. Only a small
number of them live on campus, which
is something Gricscn said he would
like to change.
The proposal also would increase
occupancy and revenues of residence
halls, Gricscn said. In the past two
years, he said, the number of fresh
man has significantly declined be
cause of the decrease in the number of
Nebraska high school graduates.
The more occupants UNL has in
its residence halls, Gricsen said, the
less effect inflation has on rates.
However, the goal of the program
would not be to make money, he said.
“Even if this program just breaks
even ... it would be a positive thing
if we could help more students to
become more fully integrated into the
campus environment,” Gricscn said.
“I believe we need to do lots of differ
ent things to offer attractive packages
to students that will make more of
them live in our residence halls.”
Gricscn emphasized that the idea
is only in its beginning stages. How
ever, he said he hoped the proposal
would be initiated on a trial basis next
year with 30 to 40 students. If so, he
said he would like to have informa
tion about it published in January in
“The Good Life,” the booklet about
living in the residence halls.
Members of the enhancements
committee expressed concern about
whether full-time hall residents would
be receptive to the idea, Gricscn said.
These and any other concerns will be
explored.
For the idea to work, the students
would have lobe fully integrated with
floor life, Gricscn said.
“To have this work effectively,
these students would have to be part
of the gang," he said.

Limner said the economic impact
was only a rough estimate because
Miami was the home team and not as
many people would be pumping money
'into hotels, cabs, souvenirs antj res
taurants.
But before worrying about all the
money you’re going to spend at the
Orange Bowl, you have to get a ticket.
Joe Sclig, ticket manager of the
athletic ticket office, said that 60
University of Nebraska-Lincoln stu
dents paid the S30 for tickets before
Thursday’s4 p.m. deadline. UNL had
10,000 tickets available for students.
Next, you’ve got to get to Miami.
Laura Hcimann, an auto travel
counselor at the Lincoln branch of
AAA, recommended a route through
Kansas City, Si. Louis, Illinois, Ken
tucky, Nashville, Atlanta and finally
into Florida.
The inp, for drivers, is 1,619 miles.
Because Nebraska fans arc conscien
tious citizens and will drive 65 miles
per hour, the trip should take about 24
hours.
By bus the trip is a little longer, 40
hours, and a round-trip ticket is S222.
Flying would be the fastest, but a
round-trip ticket will run S271 and,
according to Bill Bennett, the presi
dent of Adventure Travel Inc., all
nights already are booked.
Limner docs suggest that students
make hotel reservations now for their
slay in Miami.
Students can get single and double
rooms in Miami s art-deco area from
S50 to S70 a night, she said.
Thcdislrict, built during the 1930s
and ’40s, is located across from the
beach and only 15 minutes from the
stadium.
The area is popular among young
people, Limner said, because of its
clubs, cafes, bars and jazz rooms.
“It gets extremely crowded, and
(there is) partying on the weekends
and at night,” she said.
While Husker fans were visiting
Miami, Miller said, he didn’t think
they would encounter as much hostil
ity compared to past years.
When Miami played Notre Dame,
he said Irish fans incited the Hurri
canes to a warlike altitude to the ex
tent that many wore fatigues to the
game.
But he said the atmosphere was
different this year.
“Because we’re expected to win
by so much,” he said, “most of the
fans are not fiercely geared up.”
