ASUN senator hears
dead week problems
By Mindy L. Leiter
Staff Reporter_____
If ASUN Sen. Leslie Strong gets
her way, students will gel a break
during dead week to prepare them
selves for finals.
During dead week, which starts
Monday and lasts through Dec. 11,
professors arc prohibited from giving
most exams and assigning papers, she
said.
Strong, who represents the Col
lege of Journalism in ASUN, will
handle questions and complaints about
dead week.
She will review complainLs and
contact professors about any viola
tions.
Basically I will look into thccom
plaint and sec if a violation has been
committed." she said. “If it has. then
I will contact the professor to correct
it. If not, I will contact the student and
tell them why there is no violation.”
Strong said her evaluation of the
complaints would be based on the
Association of Students of the Uni
versity of Nebraska policy.
The following rules arc included in
the ASUN Dead Week policy:
• Tests may not be given, with the
exception of library, practical or self
paced exams.
• No projects, papers or speeches
may be due during dead week that arc
not assigned in writing by at least the
eighth week of the semester.
• Final exams for full semester
classes arc to be given only at the
regularly scheduled time or another
time during finals week that is mutu
ally agreeable to all concerned.
• Students who have questions or
complaints about dead week can pick
up complaint forms at the ASUN of
fice or relay them to Dave Temple,
- it
I like to try and do
things on a one-on
one basis between
students and profes
sors. Most of the time,
things get resolved
that way.

Strong said most student com
plaints were about exams given dur
ing dead week.
“Someone will be having a lest
during dead week without the consent
of the entire class,” she said, “and
that’s a violation.”
Strong said she had received no
complaints about dead week viola
tions yet, but she expected they would
begin filtering in next week.
Unlortunatcly, it s kind ol alter
the fact,” she said. “I can’t fix it this
semester, but I can contact the profes
sors and tell them not to repeat the
violation next semester”
AS UN has placed classified ads in
the Daily Nebraskan and the Scarlet
to inform people about dead week,
she said.
Temple said he also would be happy
to work out dead week concerns with
students and faculty members.
Temple said he usually tried to get
students to talk to their professors
about their questions.
“I like to try and do things on a one
on-one basis between students and
professors,” he said. “Most of the
time, things gel resolved that way.’’
