Many foods, cultures fill bazaar
By Andrew Lucas
Staff Reporter “
Foreign dialects, colorful flags,
crafts and distinct aromas filled the
first floor of the Nebraska Union Tues
day and Wednesday.
Students from 17 countries spon
sored 22 booths at the International
Bazaar. The International Student
Organization hosted of the bazaar.
Booths were sponsored by student
associations for different countries.
The Indian Students Association
booth served samosa, masala vada and
tandoori chicken. The food was a spicy
mixture of vegetables and flavoring.
Samosa, a fried hors d’oeuvre
stuffed with peas and potatoes, could
be served with the tandoori chicken,
said Sharada Bishu, a Lincoln resi
dent helping with the Indian Students
Associations booth.
Tandoori chicken is a traditional
style of preparing chicken by baking it
in an earthen oven with tomatoes, on
ions and garlic.
“Ifyou come to my country, we eat
bread,” said Ahmet Uludag, a gradu
ate student in agronomy and president
of the Turkish Students Association.
The Turkish booth also served an
appetizer called dolma. Dolma is meat
and rice wrapped in a grape leaf and
served in a tart sauce that gives it a
compact texture.
Most booths had information about
their countries and crafts for sale along
with food.
“It’s a good opportunity to learn
about other countries without having
to read a book,” said Muhammad

ASUN opposes motorcycle fee
By Melanie Brandert
Staff Reporter
ASUN senators voted Wednesday
night to approve student fee alloca
tions recommended by the Committee
for Fees Allocation for the University
Health Center, the Nebraska Unions
and the Campus Recreation Center.
Last month, CFA recommended a
1.36 percent increase for the unions,
an 18 percent increase for the recre
ation center and a 1.11 percent in
crease for the health center.
With the increases, Fund B student
fees will be $175.07 per student per
semester, up from $172.05.
CFA chairwoman Jennifer Cusick
told senators in the Association of
Students of the University of Nebraska
that some increases in the Fund B
users’ budgets were related to expenses
for rewiring buildings with a higher
level of wire.
Senators also voted to oppose a
proposed new parking permit fee of
$3 to $5 per month for drivers of
motorcycles and mopeds. Currently,
they do not pay for permits because of
the small amount of space needed for
their vehicles.
The proposal was introduced last
week by UNL Parking Services at a
Parking Advisory Committee meet
ing.
Daryl Swanson, chairman of the
committee, said Parking Services
Manager Tad McDowell had based
the parking permit proposal on fair
ness.
“He was raising it on the question
of whether or not it is fair to permit
motorcycles to be the only motorized,
licensed vehicle to park free on Uni
versity property,” he said.
Swanson said Parking Services
would earn a minimal amount of in
come if the proposed permit was ap
proved.
Dave Milligan, speaker of the sen
ate, said a parking permit fee should
not be charged to be “fair.”
“The spots (motorcycles) take up
are so small that they couldn’t be used
for cars anyway,” he said. “It just
seems silly to start this bureaucracy
that’s going to take up people’s time
away from other (issues) that are more
serious.”
Robert Caldwell, a College of Law
senator, said he would be strongly
opposed to the proposal.
“I think it would go against a
policy providing an incentive for
students to bring motorcycles to cam
pus,” he said.

Regents
Continued from Page 1
eight regents to be appointed.
Nelson said the eight-three mixture
was not worth implementing because
three appointed regents coul dn ’ t make
a difference. He said he would be
satisfied with a board that was half
appointed and half-elected.
Nelson has said any state agency
that uses 17 percent of Nebraska’s
total budget should be more account
able to the public. A governor-ap
pointed more would create this ac
countability, he said.
The committee has discussed sev
eral different combinations, but has
not advanced a specific version to the
floor.
Bohlke said the committee was con
cerned about expanding the board from
its present size of eight members.
“That’s not more efficient,” Bohlke
said.
Another concern of the committee,
she said, would be the transition be
tween the elected and appointed re
gents.
Sen. Jerome Warner of Waverly
said the challenge would be convinc
ing voters to accept an appointed board.
If the resolution advances through the
Legislature, it would need voter ap
proval before it was enacted.
“I don’t think it has a ghost of a
chance on the ballot,” Warner said.
Warner offered Tuesday a motion
to kill the resolution, but it failed.
However, he said Wednesday the bill
was likely to pass out of committee.
“I would be surprised if there were
not five votes to pass it,” he said.
Sen. Chris Beutler of Lincoln said a
majority of the committee felt there
was at least a small benefit to appoint
ing regents.
“If I were king, I would appoint
them all,” Beutler said.
Sen. Janis McKenzie of Harvard,
vice chairwoman of the committee,
said the resolution could more easily
be advanced to the floor of the Legis
lature because it was a constitutional
amendment, not a potential law.
