Faculty gets updates on parking, computer plans lor UNL

“Green spaces” and new informa
tion systems will be the focus of the
UNL Academic Senate over the next
few months, members said at Tues
day’s meeting.
UNLChancellor
Graham Spanier
said at the meet
ing that the uni
versity was going
ahead with plans
-- _ to eliminate the
SENATE parking lot north
w *1 Qf the Nebraska
Union.
“We have to face up to the future of
the parking system on this campus,”
Spanier said.
Spanier said in an earlier speech
that he planned to turn the lot into a
green space to improve campus aes
thetics.
The elimination of the lot also is
part of apian to revamp the University
of Nebraska-Lincoln’s parking sys
tem.
The 146 permit holders displaced
from the lot will have priority for a
new parking arrangement in the cam
pus core, Spanier said.
In other business, the status of the
Student Information System, which
provides voice-response registration,
was discussed.
Beginning in January 1994 stu
dents will be able to drop and add
classes from any push-button phone,
said Donna Liss, project manager for
SIS. The system will be available for
fall class registration next spring.
The Committee on Campus Wide
Information Systems also is looking
into a computer degree audit system,
but has not purchased it yet, Liss said.
The program can be used to check
if a student has met all degree require
ments or to help students Figure cours
es when changing majors.
The program would leave more
time for interaction between students
and advisers, Liss said.
Even if the university finds it via
ble, the audit system wm not oe avail
able for at least two years.
Steve Dunbar, another CCWIS
committee member, said the commit
tee planned to have a version of a new
campuswide information system
working by Jan. 1,1994. The system
would allow university members to
gain access to campus, state and world
information from a personal comput
er.
Access to test grades, student tran
scripts and sample test questions, as
well as U.S. census information,elec
tronic mail and professional journals,
all could be gained through the sys
tem.

Cult

pies do whatever I told them to do,” he
Gholston said the church used mind
control, which is a common method
of cults.
“You just sense in your gut that if
I don’t do what they want me to do,
then they’re not going to look at me in
the same light,” he said.
That can be especially difficult for
someone who has developed deep
relationships within the group, he said.
Group members also fear that the
sins they’ve confessed to their discipler
may come back to haunt them, he
said.
Gholston said most former cult
members should seek counseling.
J an Larson, a member of Lincoln ’ s
support group for parents of children
who have been or are involved in a
cult, said she believed the church had
stopped growing. Larson’s son is a
former member of Lincoln Christian.
Faculty

opportunity to look at its goals for the
future,” he said. “We will lose some
very good faculty; but, on the other
hand, it lets us plan for younger faculty
with the backgrounds we want in
various programs.”
David Brinkerhoff, interim
associate vice chancellor for
Academic Affairs, agreed.
“It lets departments do some
reconfiguring, and in that way it’s a
positive,” he said.
While some faculty might leave
UNL to join other universities for
better opportunities, orinkernott said
the majority of those leaving would
retire.
Brinkerhoff said UNL might be a
step ahead of other schools with high
faculty turnover rates by being
prepared for the turnover.
“Most uni versities look at this on a
year-to-year basis, he said, “but it’s
good to look at the long range.”

Scholarship
Continued from Page 1
O’Connor said his company’s ser
vices were legitimate and meant to
help students.
But Beacon said the buyer should
beware and read guarantees on such
offers carefully, especially if no mon
ey-back refund was offered.
Beacon said students can obtain
the same scholarship information for
free.
“Oo over to the Educational Plan- «
ning Center,” located at 14th and O
streets. Beacon said. “You can sit
down at a computer and do a national
search for nothing. They’ll give you
the same list.”
By January, Beacon said the office
of Scholarships and Financial Aid
would have its own scholarship search
computer. The office is loading the
software and will have the names of
the 5,000 national scholarships and
many local scholarships.
But O’Connor said his company’s
services were a better investment.
“1 don’t see where you lose any
thing and you have a chance of gain

you can come out ahead with the
