pend. After five years, his appoint
ment to the position will either be
maintained or reassigned.
Moser declined to predict his
chances for a renewal of the profes
sorship, but said he did not plan to
slow down.
Moser now is teaching three courses,
including an employment seminar for
graduating seniors. His research fo
cuses on forage and range growth and
physiology.
In addition to this research, Moser
is studying the seedling development
of grasses, tiller development and
protein utilization.
Although Moser is involved in many
aspects of his field, he said his loyal
ties laid with teaching.
“I like the combination of research
and teaching, but I really, thoroughly
enjoy teaching,” Moser said. “I like
the mix of students and each course
offers different approaches and di
versity.”
Moser’s introduction to an agri
cultural lifestyle began on his par
ent’s dairy farm west of Akron, Ohio,
but his interest in agriculture did not
come until later.
“After my freshman year in col
lege, I realized my interest was in
agriculture,” he said. “At that time I
was at Ohio University, but I trans
ferred to Ohio State because they
didn’t have an ag program at Ohio
U.”
Moser graduated from Ohio State
in 1962 with a bachelor’s degree in
agricultural education. A talk with a
fraternity brother led Moser to gradu

“It’s going to be very difficult to
put an exact financial impact on it,”
he said.
Kim Phelps, assistant vice chan
cellor of business and finance and
director of the budget, also said it
would be hard *o estimate the budget
ary impact of B1044.
If the bill { scs, he said, budget
cuts in areas un> lated to faculty could
be significant.
Phelps said the university had two
missions besides instruction: research
and public service.
“I think that the intention of the
bill is sound,” he said. “The difficulty
with the bill is that it assumes that all
faculty arc required to do classroom
teaching.”

The bill was passed Monday 46-0.
Gov. Ben Nelson now will have

ate school at Kansas State, where he
received his master’s degree in range
science in 1964.
He returned to Ohio State, where
he earned a doctorate degree in for
age physiology in 1967. He remained
at Ohio State for three years as a staff
member, but opportunity led him to
UNL.
“It was an opportunity to look good,
and Nebraska offers a broad range of
forage crops and rangeland,” he said.
Although his work at UNL keeps
him busy, Moser said, he still finds
time for leisure activities. In addition
to attending various UNL sporting
events, Moser said he enjoyed travel
ing with his family during the sum
mer.
Moser’s two children, Carrie, 25,
and B ill, 23, both have attended UNL.
Carrie spent three years at UNL and
then transferred to a medical center in
Omaha. She is a physical therapist.
Bill is studying biological sciences at
UNL.
Although his children havechosen
different career paths than himself,
Moser said he wasn’t disappointed
with their decisions.
“I have tried to adopt the same
method my parents used with me, and
that is to let my children make their
own decisions,” Moser said. “Each
person has to find where they fit.
“This is sometimes better than if
you’d been actively influenced.”
Active seems4o be Moser’s choice
word, as he skillfully maneuvers around
the subject of retirement and stresses
his plans to stay active.
“I don’t know what I want to do
after I retire,” he said. “I really hadn’t
thought that far ahead. ”
UNL waste handling studied
Storage building
needs upgrade,
manager says
By Mike Lewis
Staff Reporter
Storing UNL’s hazardous waste
on campus is more feasible than trans
porting it to an off-campus site, a
UNL official said.
Del Weed, manager of environ
mental health and safety at the Uni
versity of Nebraska-Lincoln, said no
other public facility in Lincoln or
Nebraska would take the waste.
“They wouldn’t accept it in the
form that we generate it,” he said.
Concern about the UNL hazard
ous waste building arose after the
federal Environmental Protection
Agency fined UNL about $58,000 in
October 1990 for improperly han
dling hazardous waste. Weed said
UNL paid a $38,500 fine after nego
tiating with the EPA.
University of Nebraska President
Martin Massengale recently requested
$419,000 from the Nebraska Legisla
ture to improve the 400-square-foot
waste storage building near 37th and
Merrill streets on East Campus or to
build another facility.
Weed said Industrial Services of
Lincoln could transport UNL’s haz
ardous waste in bulk, out of the slate,
but that would be too costly to do
frequently.
“It’s $2,000 just to have them step
on your doorstep, he said.
Industrial Services transported a
load of UNL’s hazardous waste to
Texas in January 1990, Weed said.
The EPA fine was imposed be
cause of inadequate aisle space in the
hazardous materials building and
inadequate tracking of some chemi
cals transported from City Campus to
East Campus, Weed said.
The building also has been cited
for inadequate ventilation and ex
haust, he said, but those were not
reasons for the fine.
Weed said UNL’s hazardous waste
could be divided into four main classes:
ignitablcs, toxics, corrosives and reac
tives. In a year, the university gener
ates about 20 tons of hazardous waste,
including solvents, pesticides and acids,
he said.
EPSCOR

asbestos from Burnett Hall.
The Legislature must match any
grants approved by the National Sci
ence Foundation in order for EPSCOR
to receive federal funding for Ne
braska’s three research projects.
Cunningham said he did not think
the grants would be threatened if money
for EPSCOR is held up in the Legis
lature.
Although a state appropriation can
never be guaranteed, he said, he thinks
“strong, good-faith agreement with
the state government to deliver this
match.”
