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.

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.
Halls

Michael Hager, University of Ne
braska-Lincoln housing director, said
enrollment in the residence halls was
at a 10-year high.
Students reserved more than 4,700
spaces in the halls last year, he said.
This year, students reserved more than
5,000 spaces, and the housing depart
ment turned away more than 100 up
perclassmen.

close to campus, and
you have everything
you need.
— Brannagan,
senior art major

One upperclassman who found a
spot was Paul Erickson, a junior ad
vertising major. 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.”
