UNL hit with lawsuits
Associated Press — Two lawsuits
have recently been filed against the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
UNL chemistry professor Victor
Day is suing his boss and the Board of
Regents, alleging his salary is about
half what his peers in the department
make. The other lawsuit was filed
Tuesday by Art Ode, former director
of the Nebraska Statewide Arbore
tum. Ode alleges that he was fired
because of his age.
Ode alleged his contract was ter
minated in 1993 despite excellent
performance evaluations and annual
salary increases. Ode, who is 57, was
replaced by a man in his 30’s. He also
alleges that Irv Omtvedt, vice-chan
cellor of UNL’s Institute of Agricul
ture and Natural Resources, gave him
a false performance evaluation in
1992. Omtvedt is named as a defen
dant in the suit along with the regents.
Omtvedt said that Ode’s employ
ment with the university was on a
contractual basis, and that the deci
sion not to renew the contract was
based partly on budgetary concerns.
In 1993, Ode earned $87,300. His
replacement earns about $50,000 a
year. Ode is asking to be reinstated.
According to uay siawsun.nenas
been paid an average of $41,124 a
year since 1990, while other profes
sors in the chemistry department
earned a median salary of $73,025.
The suit alleges that Pill-Soon
Song, chairman of UNL’s chemistry
department intentionally directed the
salary committee to retaliate against
plaintiff for his exercise of academic
freedom by conducting research
through a consulting company Day
owns.
The suit seeks $858,000 in com
pensatory, punitive and other damag
es and an unspecified amount for
emotional and mental distress.
Day, a tenured professor since
1979, also alleges that Song has pur
posely excluded from Day’s person
nel file information on academic re
search Day has done at his own con
sulting company.
He also alleges that Song lists Day
as an associate professor in personnel
files. Day is a full professor.
Song has declined to comment,
and John Wiltse, the attorney han
dling the case for the university, was
out of town and unavailable for com
ment.
Expo Vision highlights
possiblefuture careers
By Chris DeKalb
Staff Reporter__
On July 6-8 there will be some
new faces on the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln campuses.
Expo Visions ’94. a youth educa
tion program, is being held on both
city and east campus. The event is
sponsored by 4-H as a means of
helping youth throughout the state,
said Larry Hammer, program spe
cialist at the Nebraska Center for
Continuing Studies.
Events include 42 leamshops,
17 career tours and several special
programs. The activities focus on
various academic areas, including
law, engineering, journalism, avi
ation and zoology. Participating
students will also take a trip to
Omaha’s Old Market and to
Bellevue.
This is the fifth year for
ExpoVision.
ExpoVision events help people
who run 4-H programs achieve
their goals with young students.
Hammer said. Some of these goals
arc exploring a career, extending
talents, learning self-expression
and expanding horizons.
The 4-H organizations and the
Center for Continuing Education
devotes a lot of time on this project
according to Hammer.
“We work on it year round,” he
said. “We get serious about it in
December.”
This year the event has 284
students between the ages of 13
18. The number of students partic
ipating in this event has been slow
ly growing. This number of partic
ipants is equal to last year and more
than two years ago.
