As part of the sanctions, a UNL

with how the adviser had been work

Steve Zatcchka, the graduate ad
viser. said he felt odd but welcomed
the first day or two after he started.
“The first day 1 was greeted by two
guys to help me move in,” he said. “I
felt like 1 was being inducted into the
house.”
Zatcchka said the mood in the house
was upbeat, not down and out.
"1 found that the people are bond

“They are trying to get their feet

“A lot of what I see is not a bunch

said.
“I’ve got to do the job.” Zatechka
said. "I've been treaiing them like
adults, and they have been treating me
like an adult."
With that kind of communication,
he said, there have been no problems.
