Debate Continued from Page 1 Omaha and the state. An engineering college would fill a void in an otherwise attractive Omaha market, he said. Interested businesses now have to send theiremployccs down to Lincoln for schooling, he said. To avoid that, they could choose other markets like Chicago, St. Louis or Dcs Moines, Schulz said. And they arc. So far, the debate has been mostly within the university, but Schulz said that’s starting to change. “The entire Omaha metro area is becoming more and more interested in it as it goes along,” Schulz said. “I would say there’s a pretty good shot of it (a separate college) happening.” If the board approves the creation of a separate college* Loudon said, it would be sending a confusing mes sage to state senators. “We’ve got to look at the fact that funds are scarce in Nebraska,” Loudon said. “The fact is this is an issue where we (ASLTN senators) arc standing up and saying, ‘Hey, in January we’re going to have to go in front of the Legislature with a proposed budget— and it has to be a responsible one.’” She Loves Me As co-workers they clash, but as pen pals they swoon.

UNL sorority celebrates 100 years of sisterhood By Rebecca Oltmans Staff Reporter Two hundred sixty women, rep resenting alumnae from eight de cades, gathered last weekend for a banquet honoring one hundred years of sisterhood of the Kappa chapter of Delta Delta Delta. — 44 The support of a close-knit group within a larger organization is the same as it was 100 years ago. —Tri-Delta Alumna Lynn Roper -*t The sorority is the fourth oldest on campus. It was founded in 1894 with eight members. The reunion attendees spoke at the banquet about everything from rolling up the rugs for dances in the 30’s to the ending of Ivy Day. the school yearbook, alumna Lynn Roper said. “The chapter really mirrors the lives of young women through the years.” Roper said. The sorority was located in a variety of houses before the exist ing building at 16th and R streets was purchased in 1926 for$40,000. The metal fence and gates around the house were given to the house by General John Pershing— the only male honorary member. Three of Pershing’s sisters were Tri-Deltas. A lot of history has been wit nessed inside the house through the years. “A group gathered around the radio in the Tri-Delta house, lis tening to reports of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. (There was) gasoline rationing, sugar rationing and nylons were practically nonex istent,” alumna Jessie Lou Tyler Allen said. Some history of campus life has just started to change after decades ofcommon experience for students. Registration is described in a 1920 excerpt from the chapter’s history: “Registration at Nebraska pre sents a perfect chaos which finally evolves itself into hours of seem ingly endless lines. An official re port has not been made, but rumor has it that 7000 students registered this year.” Positive aspects of sorority life as well as membership have been steady throughout the years, Roper said. “The support of a close-knit group within a larger organization is the same as it was 100 years ago,” Roper said. Women attending the banquet came from as far away as Califor nia and Maine. Many have main tained close friendships forover 50 years, she said.
