CB A auditorium christened
By Cami Walker

People don’t have weaknesses, but
non-strengths that turn into weakness
es when they become over-concerned,
a speaker said Wednesday.
Donald Clifton delivered this mes
sage during the first public event held
in the renovated auditorium of the
College of Business Administration.
Clifton, author of “Soar with your
Strengths,” spoke to students, faculty
and local business leaders at a chris
tening of the auditorium. Except for
some electronic equipment, which will
be installed soon, the auditorium is
complete.
Clifton told those in attendance to
try to develop talents and manage their
weaknesses. Leaders can bring out the
best in people, he said, by keeping
positive attitudes and recognizing suc
cess.
Wednesday night’s events were
sponsored by the CB A student devel
opment center. Before Clifton spoke,
students had an opportunity to mix
with Lincoln business leaders at an
open house and a reception afterwards.
CBA Dean Gary Schwendiman
deemed the building’s renovation the
best bargain ever received by the tax
payers of Nebraska because $500,000
was saved on construction costs.
Originally, $5.2 million was allo
cated for construction costs, but the
winning bid was $4.7 million, a sav
ings of $500,000.
There will be a year-long celebra
tion after the finished building is ded
icated this fall. Many guest speakers
will be brought to the college through
out the year, Schwendiman said.
He said classroom design was the
top priority when the project was in its
planning stages.
According to Mindy Schmitz, this
consideration paid off. Schmitz, a jun
ior actuarial science major, said the
auditorium offered a much better leam
ing environment for students.
Better lighting and acoustics, more
comfortable chairs and large-screen
monitors all provide a more comfort
able atmosphere, she said.
Tribal issues to be studied
By Paula Lavlgne
Senior Reporter
American Indian sovereignty, her
itage and multicultural education will
be the topics of the Winter Council
conference next week at UNL.
Eric Jolly, director of affirmative
action and diversity at the University
of Nebraska-Lincoln, discussed the
importance of upholding cultural val
ues at a preview of the council Wednes
day.
“We all have a culture that goes
back many generations, and it impacts
us,” he said. “The ways that our great
grandparents did things are ways that
we all can recognize.”
Jolly said the council would begin
with a panel discussion on recent is
sues of American Indian sovereignty
Jan. 28 at 1:30 p.m. at the Lied Center
for Performing Arts. Leaders of sever
al American Indian tribes will attend
the council.
“Under international law, for a state
to be a sovereign nation, it must have
a permanent population, defined terri
tory, a government that functions and
the ability to conduct relations with
other states,” Jolly said.
“According to these criteria, Amer
ican Indians have been sovereign states
for centuries but continue to be under
military law,” he said.
Jolly said the benefits and conse
quences of sovereignty would be de
bated during the discussion.
The following day will open with a
greeting by Elmer Blackbird, voca
tional director for the Omaha Tribe. A
multiculturalism workshop led by pro
fessional educators will follow.
In an effort to transmit cultural
values and traditions to younger Amer
ican Indians, a series of teaching cir
cles will be led by elder tribal leaders,
Jolly said.
Jolly said the council was not ex
clusively for Americans Indians. Ev
eryone is encouraged to attend. For
registration information contact the
Center for Great Plains Studies.
