    ASUN changes parking board
Senate to appoint
all four members;
terms shortened
By Angie Brunkow
Staff Reporter
The Association of Students of the
University of Nebraska decided
Wednesday to take responsibility for
appointing all members of the Park
ing Advisory Board and to shorten the
terms that students serve on the board.
Under the previous system, ASUN
appointed three students to positions
on the board. Merlin Lawson, dean of
graduate studies, appointed a gradu
ate student for the final position.
Susan Oxley, chairwoman of
ASUN’s student life committee, said
only the three student positions that
were appointed by ASUN had been
filled in the last few years.
ASUN President Andrew Sigerson
said the graduate studies program did
■ mi |not actively seek
AbUN 10 aPPoinl mcm
bersas ASUN did.
JBut he said lhe
b°ard needed to
have full student
■■■■■ represcntaUon.
‘We need on
Parking Advisory Board as much rep
resentation as possible,” he said.
Oxley said that under the new sys
tem, the student positions also would
be limited to one-year terms so that
each new ASUN president could ap
point his or her own choices to the
board.
“Each president has his own ideas
and his own platform that he wants to
follow through,” she said.
But Sigcrson said that because of
the turnover rate of members on the
board, the chairperson would be
elected in the fall.
In other business, ASUN passed a
resolution recognizing Ned Hedges,
associate professor of English at the
University of Nebraska-Lincolri.
Hedges, who serves as AS&N’s
electoral commission adviser, re
ceived the Lake Award for Academic
Freedom, which is awarded to one
faculty member per year, Sigcrson
said.
Sigerson said Hedges had made
important contributions to both ASUN
and UNL.
Also, Speaker of the Senate An
drew Loudon said ASUN senators
would be visiting the University of
Kansas at Lawrence Friday to meet
with student government members
there.

or weeks or months later.
Any student who wants help can
obtain counseling and psychological
services at the health center, Portnoy
said. All meetings arc confidential, he
said, and the first three sessions are
free so financial concerns do not deter
students from seeking help.
Each counselor incorporates stress
management into the sessions, Portnoy
said.
He identified four areas of stress
symptoms: physical, cognitive, emo
tional and behavioral.
Physical symptoms of stress in
clude fatigue, nausea, sweating and
grinding teeth, Portnoy said.
Cognitive symptoms include poor
concentration, difficulties solving
problems arfd nightmares.
Loss of control, depression, anxi
cty and guilt are some emotional symp
toms, he said, and behavioral symp
toms includcchangcs in appetite, pac
ing and increased alcohol consump
lion.

Election

ing the vice presidential debate could
end up backfiring on him.
“That m ight be acceptable in some
circumstances, but I think it also gets
him into an awkward and embarrass
ing situation,” he said. “Calling the
nominee of the other major party in
this country lacking in truthfulness,
like Quaylc did four or five times
during the debate, raises the slakes to
the point that one wonders if there is
any payoff that you can get from that
kind of campaign.”
Sittig said he thought- Ross Perot
performed well during the first de
bate. But the presidential race is not
likely to be close enough for Perot to
have a significant effect, he said.
“Since I can’t anticipate or imag
ine how Perot is going to win, the next
best thing he can do is influence the
outcome,” he said., “But for him to
affect the outcome, ihe election has to
be closer than it is now.”
If Bush wanks to cut intoClinton’s
lead, he must take the initiative in
tonight’s debate to shift the focus to
new issues and to draw Clinton into
discussing them, Sittig said.
