where know ledge is created and trans
mitted. This kind of university will
play a critical role in the next decade,”
Leitzel said.
“This is why UNL is interesting to
me.”
Leitzel also enjoys the atmosphere
at the university.
“A university is a special commu
nity. Everybody is learning. It’s an
exciting place to be,” Leitzel said.
She said that her most challenging
position is her current position at the
National Science Foundation.
“NSF has a high priority for im
proving student abilities in science
and math all across the board as well
as improving the accessibility of
women and minorities to the field. As
decentralized as education is in this
country, this is very challenging,”
Leitzel said.
When Leitzel assumes her post at
UNL on August 15, her duties will
include oversight of the Graduate
College and the International Affairs
Office. Leitzel will also oversee all
academic programs on campus ex
cept those in the Institute for Agricul
ture and Natural Resources.
Leitzel will receive an annual sal
ary of $128,000.
Chancellor Graham Spanier said
items high on his agenda for Leitzel
include an overhaul of general educa
tion on campus and budget and fiscal
issues.
Leitzel has written several text
books and won several awards includ
ing the Director’s Award for Manage
ment Excellence at the NSF last year.
But Leitzel’s most valued award is
her Distinguished Teaching Award
that she received at Ohio State.
“It’s the one I prize the most be
cause I very much value teaching,”
Leitzel said.
Leitzel received her bachelor’s
degree from Hanover Col lege in 1958,
a master’s degree from Brown Uni
versity in 1961 and her doctorate from
Indiana University in 1965. All three
were earned in mathematics.
Additionally, she has held several
leadership roles in the Mathematics
Association of America, and is a mem
ber of the American Association for
the Advancement of Science, the
National Council of Teachers of Math
ematics and Sigma Xi.
In her spare time, and Leitzel ad
mits she doesn’t have much of it, she
enjoys outdoor activities, such as hik
ing and swimming as well as and
spending time with her family.

lime as a graphic artisl at the Lincoln
Journal-Star.
Her abilities as an artist were dam
aged by the head injuries she received,
and she told of frustration in not being
able to see detail in her art work. She
said she feels the previous quality of
her work will come back gradually,
and she has no plans to seek another
career.
But, Mountain said, worst of all
has been her entire personality change
since the attack.
“I was very happy, and always
smiling. I looked at things optimisti
cally,” Mountain said.
She said she is regaining some of
her old optimism slowly, and smiling
more now. Mountain said that her co
workers had been especially under
standing during this time.
“You learn to know who your good
friends are, by the way they react and
the way they help you,” Mountain
said.
As for her husband, whom she
married after the attack, Mountain
praised him for his perseverance, in
the face of the changes brought on by
her injuries.
“He always slicks with me, even
when my personality is awful. 1 don’t
know if anyone else would have acted
as he did,” Mountain said.
Both expressed relief that the trial
process for Baldwin is nearly over.
She said the trial and surrounding
publicity have been a constant source
of stress for her.
“Fora while, I was afraid to be seen
in public, wondering if someone was
out to get me,” Mountain said.
She added that the couple still does
not go out much.
^ Both also expressed some linger
ing bitterness over the attack, though
it is lessening. Mountain said the an
ger is intermittent, but now she is
hoping to get better, ‘‘because I have
to.”
Her husband told reporters he has
learned to think of the beating as an
accident, not as an assault.
Despite the difficulties over the
past six months, the couple said they
are looking for the future to improve,
and are considering starting a family.
For the immediate future, the
couple are planning a honeymoon.

ings and other categories. Money for
the program needs was broken down
into broad categories for each of the
university’s four campuses and uni
versity-wide expenses.
“I look at the proposed budget and
I can identify someof the things we’ve
identified as high priority, but there
are things I don’t see,” regent Charles
Wilson of Lincoln said.
He said library services and stu
dent counseling were examples of
areas the regents had earlier identi
fied as priorities, yet they didn’t seem
to be specifically provided for in the
budget requests.
In other business, the regents ap
proved a $19 million contract for
construction of the Beadle Center for
Geneticsand Biomaterials Research
in Lincoln. The ccnier is expected to
house more than 235 researchers and
faculty members specializing in agri
cultural biotechnology.
The regen is also approved creation
of a center forAlbanian studies at
UNL.
