Tuition Continued from Page A1 additional faculty. Other money would be allo cated to priorities set by NU President Dennis Smith and the chancellors of the four universi ties. Haack said that under a new system Smith created, all tuition revenue and other income were no longer for the individual cam puses but for all four campuses. In an April meeting before theNU Board of Regents, Smith outlined his changes in the way the NU budget was created and how resources would be allocat ed. Smith said the changes were in agreement with his concept of the “one university” system. —1(-— I’m still hoping for the old Powerball to come in. —Thamish sophomore chemical engineering student -ft Haack said Smith and the four university chancellors would allocate all resources to the individual campuses on a priority basis. “All the resources were put in the middle of the table, and then they were divided,” Haack said. “Where they went (from there) was a moot point. “It is a different process, and we will have to get used to it. It will iron out some of the prob lems we’ve had before (with budget shortfalls).” In the new system, Haack said, one campus would not ben efit more than others year after year, and one campus would not suffer more year after year. Smith also set aside a $750,000 fund from allocations to protect campuses against bud get shortfalls, Haack said. That money will be allocated to campuses with priority needs if it is not used to cover revenue shortfalls, he said.

Erickson lived in the residence halls his first two years at UNL, then moved off campus. Erickson said he came back this year because he was sick of his apart ment and his landlord. He now has his own room and gets a reduced return ing student rate. The housing department’s push to attract upperclassmen to the residence halls also brought back Russ Brannagan. a senior art major. Brannagan moved out of the halls and found an apartment during the sum mer that was just seven blocks from campus. He lefi that apartment last week. “It’s just more convenient (to stay in the halls),” he said. “You’re close to campus, and you have everything you need.” cfrfcPET LAd/0 Lincoln's Largest Floor Covering Outlet Room Size Remnants All Colors & Sizes 27th & Superior 467-6363 (South Of Walmart) Great Food at a Great Price 10 Sauces to Choose Prom Featuring Al You Can Eat • Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday evenings • Al the spaghetti you want covered with our original, thick Italan sauce (Bask: Sauce) • Piping hot garic/cheese bread • Salad Bar Party Room Avaiable 28 It 12th*ilxoln*JUst 2 Blocks from Campus “Simplify, simplify.” Henry David Thoreau “Hey, that’s not a bad idea.” AT&T AI&T Universal MasterCard.
