ing.
With the makeup of the board in
cluding two new regents, O’Brien said
its actions would change.
“As a part of being on other boards
and committees, you will find that
introducing just one new member
changes the actions,” she said. “It
think it will be healthy—some things
will be different.”
After the meeting, Hassebrook and
Miller answered questions about is
sues the regents will face in future
meetings, including the governor’s
plan to appoint the regents and the
board’s own image.
Miller, who was outspoken in his
first meeting, said he was somewhat
disappointed by his first meeting, in
which regents voted down his pro
posal for a committee to cut costs. He
said several regents had made up their
minds about the proposal before the
meeting began.
“I wish people would come to the
board with open minds and have the
full debate there,” Miller said.
About the governor’s proposal to
appoint regents, Miller said there were
good cases for both sides.
He said appointing regents could
get some good people on the board
who would not have normally submit
ted themselves to the election process.
However, Miller said, the appoint
ment process could become a way for
the governor to reward political
friends.
“Just giving that power to the gov
ernor would be a mistake,” he said.
Hassebrook agreed, addingthat the
board made important policy deci
sions. He said those dissatisfied with
regents’ actions could vote against
them.
On the regents’ image of in-fight
ing, Miller and Hassebrook said they
both wanted to stay away from bicker
ing.
“I like debates and clashes of ideas,”
he said. “If I didn’t, I wouldn’t have
run.”
Hassebrook, however, was not as
kind when he said he would stay out of
the fray.
“I thought I was running for the
Board of Regents,” he said. “It looks
like I was elected to the board of
Ewing Oil.”

money was on-hand at the keno par
lor, but said there was money inside.
The extent of the damage was not
known, Hewitt said, but the computer
equipment used to run the games
would have to be replaced.
Several hoses were trained on the
front of the building, attempting to
control the flames shooting from the
roof. Firefighters also tore holes in the
side of the building to expose the
inside to the hoses.
As the building burned behind him,
Lincoln Fire Investigator Eric Shoen
said statements taken from workers
showed that the chemical extinguish
ing system was set off by the fire.
Shoen said the chemical extin
guishing system was designed to
handle grease and kitchen fires. How
ever, he said, the system failed to
control this one.
The failure of the system would be
one of the key elements to be investi
gated, Shoen said.

ommendations, but would not
interfere with day-to-day admin
istration.
“This is not a committee to
micro-manage,” he said. “This
is a committee that would meet
once a month.”
Several board members said
the committee would cross the
line between the regents and the
administrators. Several regents
also proposed that the regent’s
business affairs committee could
do what Miller proposed.
Regent Don Blank of
McCook said all of the regents
were in favor of administrative
efficiency, and that was why
there were chancellors and
presidents.
“We as regents can’t say we
aren’t concerned with this,” he
said. “But when we as regents
get involved in administration,
we have crossed the line.
“Our responsibility is to set
policy. It is important that we
maintain a separation of policy
and administration.”
NU President Dennis Smith,
the chief administrative officer
in the university system, said he
appreciated the help on process
redesign, but it wasn’t needed.
He said several groups in cen
tral administration were dedi
cated to improving efficiency.
Miller defended his proposal,
saying the committee would be
controlled and that it would re
port directly to the board. He
said, however, process redesign
was not an easy thing.
“Process redesign will be dis
ruptive,” Miller said. “Some
people will lose their jobs. Some
will oppose it.”
