Criticism Continued from Page 1 down and establish clear goals. He said the commission was having a hard time finding its niche because of a challenging agenda handed down from the Nebraska Legislature. “The Legislature gave the com mission some pretty high cxpccla The commission has been the tar get of strong criticism since it began operating this year after being estab lished by the Legislature and approved by Nebraska voters in 1990. The commission has the power to approve new academic programs and make recommendations to the Legis lature on budgets and capital con struction. Critics of the commission say it has created another “layer of bureau cracy” that demands too much time and detail from college and university employees. The commission was created to increase the effectiveness of the higher education system, Richmond said. But he said relations between it and col leges were doomed from the begin ning. The commission was unable to establish the proper relationships with higher education officials before tack ling the light agenda handed down to it from the Legislature, he said. The meeting between the governor and the commission has not yet been scheduled. Richmond said it would have to wait until the governor had a break in his schedule. After the crowd's gone home...

Recycling Continued from Page 1 degree. Applicants with liberal arts and social science degrees should be considered, members said, as well as those with administrative, science and engineering degrees. The new coordinator will work under the direct supervision of Jack Goebel, vice chancellor for business and finance. The coordinator will handle recycling policies on campus, recycling education and pickup and resale of recycled materials. Committee members suggested that the new coordinator supervise student interns or volunteers who would work with him or her in carry ing out recycling policies. The committee confirmed the for mation of both a new advisory board to provide feedback and suggestions to the new coordinator, as well as a smallcropcrationscommitieciowork with the coordinator to implement programs. The university will finance the re cycling position for the first year with plans for the program to become self supporting in following years. Committee members looked at the savings the university would reap front recycling and methods of financial support for the program. Small allo cations from the budget of each uni versity office, a 5-ccnt tax on pop sold on campus and donations from de partments based on savings realized from the program were mentioned. Committee members also dis cussed a plan to standardize the recy cling of Centrex directories on cam pus. The directories now arc recycled on an ad hoc basis.

Diabetes Continued from Page 1 Her disease nol only got Skrabal interested in her major, it also influ enced her to become a health aide for the University Health Center and to help form a new support group on campus for students with diabetes. The group, called Friends and Sup port: The Diabetes Network, will be gin meeting next semester. Skrabal said it was fun to talk to other students with diabetes who could relate to each other and provide sup port. That support builds the confi dence of those with the disease, she said. Making the health center a place that provides resources and support to students with diabetes is the goal of physician’s assistant Deb Vokal, who is in charge of a new diabetes educa tional program at the University of Ncbraska-Lincoln. The educational program helped start the support group, Vokal said. It also encouraged efforts to belter equip the health center to deal with newly diagnosed eases of diabetes, rather than referring them to off-campus medical professionals. A newly diagnosed patient needs intensive and immediate education, Vokal said. “People with diabetes have to man age their own disease,” Vokal said. Their ability to control it is not up to doctors, she said. When Vokal considered the need to step up educational efforts, she surveyed health center records and found about 40 diagnosed eases at UNL. Vokal said she thought there were more cases the health center did not know about. Nationally, the number of people with type 1 diabetes, which usually appears before the age of 20, is 1.4 million, according to the American Diabetes Association. The disease’s symptoms, which include sudden weight loss, fatigue, increased hun ger, thirst and frequent urination, oc cur over a short period of time. A person with type 1 diabetes must take insulin to survive. An estimated 11 million people have type 2 diabetes, which usually occurs in people who are 40 or older or arc overweight. Type 2 diabetes docs not require insulin for survival and usually can bdmddificd with diet.
