Barrett, 21, a sophomore engineer ing major, allegedly assaulted a 20 year-old University of Nebraska-Lin coln student after a study session at her apartment on Oct. 21. Lincoln Police Sgt. Ann Heermann said the woman had several other students at the apartment to study for a test. Apparently she, Barrett, and an other woman fell asleep, Heermann said. The woman woke at 6 a.m. when Barrett allegedly had forced sexual intercourse with her. Cited with first-degree sexual as sault, Barrett was released from the Lancaster County jail on Oct. 27 after - paying 10 percent of a $ 10,000 bond. Assault Continued from Page 1 ing did not concern him unduly, the wounds did. He said he still experienced pain and had to limit his physical activity. But there is more than physical healing ahead, he said "I still have to go through some psychological realignment," he said. Ong returned to classes after miss ing one week. Adding to the stress of catching up, Ong said his concentra tion lasts for only the first 15 minutes of classes. “After that, my head starts wan dering,” Ong said. His thoughts wander back to the assault and ahead to the possible pun ishment of his attackers. Three suspects have been cited in the case, including one UNL student. The suspects’ names will not be re leased until the Lancaster County At Trial Continued from Page 1 a .223 rifle were stolen from his house, 1944 Lake St., on Sept. 17, 1992. Two guns of the same type were entered into evidence by the prosecu tion. Lyons said the guns stolen from his house were similar to those pros ecutors say were involved in the mur der. Lyons said he knew Scott Barney, but had never invited Barney into his house. Lyons said Barney saw the guns while he was cleaning them at a mutual friend’s house. The stolen .223 rifle was recov ered by Lincoln police at Barney’s father’s house. In other testimony, the manager of Maurices, a women’s clothing store, testified that Harms bought a green B.U.M. Equipment jacket at the store in July. Harms wore a similar jacket Sept. 22, 1992, the night she disappeared. Two of Harms’ friends testified about the type of clothing she 1 iked to wear.

Heyward said the screening com mittee consisted of FSU professors, students, alumni groups, staff mem bers and community members. The committee will trim the 10 candidatc list to a small number of candidates who will return for longer, in-depth interviews by the end of the week, Heyward said. The first round of interviews will be short, Heyward said. “The meetings arc just to meet the committee,” she said. “It’s a fast way to get this huge committee together. They’re from all over the state.” The second round of interviews will be a two-day process, she said. An FSU Board of Regents sub committee will make a final recom mendation for the full board to vote on. Heyward said she hoped to have the final selection made by Thanks giving.
