Heart-Shaped Lecturer will kick off condom week By Andrew Lucas Staff Reporter Havingunprotected sex is like play ing Russian roulette, said Jonathan Richmond, director of the Office of Health and Safety for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Richmond will be giving a speech entitled “45 Minutes That Could Save Your Life” tonight at 7 in the Ne braska Union. Richmond’s speech will kick off National Condom week, which begins Tuesday. The speech will focus on youth education. “It’s not just to learn the informa tion but to change our behavior,” Richmond said. “I want to give you a couple challenges. One, talk among your friends in the same fashion you would talk about any life-threatening problem. Secondly, talk to your younger brothers and sisters. “We as a society have failed to bring this message home to our chil dren,” Richmond said. “Education is our best means of prevention; there fore go forth and teach.” Richmond has spoken on 25 col lege campuses in the last three years and will visit five more this year. He volunteers his time at universities on behalf of a program set up by the Chi * Phi National Fraternity. Richmond’s speech at the Univer- - sity ofNebraska-Lincoln is beingpre- - sented through a joint effort by the : University Health Center, the Kappa i Alpha Theta Sorority and Chi Phi i Fraternity. “Chi Phi is celebrating its 100th i anniversary on campus, Kappa Al- - pha Theta is celebrating its 125th i anniversary; along with the health j center, we wanted to do something ? that gave back to the university,” Chi Phi member Scott Henderson said. Berger Continued from Page 1 Berger was one of two UNL pro fessors nominated by other faculty members for the Outstanding Teach ing and Instructional Creativity Award. Winners of the award, which is a university-wide honor, will be named this spring. He also has been named as a char ter member of the university’s Acad emy of Distinguished Teachers. Berger said understanding history was a necessary skill for participating intelligently in society and making informed judgments. He said he was eager to equip students with that skill. Berger said he was old-fashioned in his lectures and not comfortable with technological advances, such as videos or simulation, which were be coming more common in lecture classes. A critical goal in his lectures, Berger said, is organizing what the textbook has to say in a manageable way. Since 1986, Berger has been the director of the University Honors Pro gram. Teaching honors classes is dif ferent from teaching introductory classes in two ways, he said. The class size is one important factor. For example, he said, about 150 students are in a normal History 101 class. In Berger’s History 101 honors class, 13 students are enrolled. Berger said the small classes al lowed students to discuss more theory, arguments and interpretation of his tory instead of simply receiving straight information, which he said he assumed honors students already ’ knew. Berger said he felt he was nomi nated for the OTICA award because he had been well-received by stu dents. Lloyd Ambrosius, chairman of the history department, said Berger was an excellent choice for the award. “He excites students and makes complex material easy to understand,” Ambrosius said. “He is a very caring teacher, and that is made obvious both in his teaching and in his dedi cation to the honors program.” Berger said, “I am truly honored to have been nominated and even more so because I appreciate and know how many talented teachers there are at * UNL.” ' I 17th & N Streets | No Appointments Necessary | 476-9466 i<jjgj$6 Off# J Oil Change Service NOW FOR $1895 ONLY (reg. $24.95) [•We change oil & oil filter up to 5 quarts. •We lubricate the chassis.

Reinhard was at a conference in Cartagena, Colombia, and could not be reached for comment. Hinman met with Reinhard and members of UNL’s NAGPRA com mittee last June. Committee mem bers told him about 75 to 80 remains were identified as Ponca, he said. Hinman said Reinhard was “quite interested in research.” “I told them I was not interested in research,” Hinman said. “I was inter ested in reburying the remains.” Permission for research can be granted only through a tribal resolu tion, Hinman said, and neither Reinhard nor the university received one from the Oklahoma tribe. Priscilla Grew, vice chancellor for research and a member of UNL’s NAGPRA committee, said she was not aware of the pending lawsuit. She said the university issued a moratorium -— a legal authorization to stop or delay — on research. Re search may have been done before the moratorium, she said. Grew said identification was the only work being done on Ponca re mains. Under NAGPRA, the univer sity must complete a complete inven tory of remains by Nov. 16, 1995. Fred Le Roy, chairman ofthe Ponca Tribe of Nebraska, said he also had never given permission to Reinhard to conduct research. Le Roy said he would have to confer with the Ponca Tribe of Okla homa, but said he wanted to' find a solution without legal action. The Oklahoma tribe, Hinman said, was known for its legal pursuits. He said he would add to the lawsuit a claim of illegal possession of prop erty. “When we met with them, we said, ‘How do you legally establish this property belongs to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln?”’ Hinman said. “This property could legally be estab lished to the Ponca tribe. They were illegally in possession of property that did not belong to them.” Under federal law, Native Ameri can tribes are sovereign. Hinman said the case would be similar if the uni versity stole burial remains from France, Canada or England. “We’re accusing them of grave robbery,” he said. “We told them as much.” The Ponca Tribe of Oklahoma was not the only tribe that responded to Reinhard’s research. Roger Echo-Hawk, the tribal his torian of the Pawnee Tribe of Okla homa, has worked as a consultant with archaeologists at UNL. Echo-Hawk drafted a letter on May 4,1994, signed by Pawnee Vice Presi dent Tom E. Knife Chief, that ad dressed Reinhard’s research. The letter requested an apology from Reinhard and three of his gradu- - ate assistants for conducting“destruc- - tive or invasive skeletal analysis of any kind” on ancestral remains.
