Graduation spirit here again
By Matt Woody
Senior Reporter
In her last week as an undergradu
ate, Pam Hansen is nervous and ex
cited — and having trouble study
ing.
Hansen, who will receive a
bachelor’s degree in criminal justice,
said she would attend commencement
ceremonies Saturday for more than
one reason.
“Partly because my mom would
kill me if I didn’t, and partly because
the ceremony will make it more real,”
she said.
This month’s commencement cer
emony will, begin Saturday at 9:30
a.m. at the Bob Devaney Sports Cen
ter.
James McShane, chairman of the
Academic Senate’s commencement
committee, said he expected the crowd
to rut tne Devaney Center.
“There are more happy people in
the Bob Devaney Sports Center at
commencement than we have on cam
pus at any time of year at any place,”
McShane said, “and it’s a deeper type
of satisfaction than going to any foot
balLgame.”
About 1,900 students will receive
degrees, and many more parents and
friends will attend, he said.
At least seven or eight at the
Devaney Center Saturday will be root
ing for Hansen. But Hansen isn’t leav
ing the university for good. She will
begin law school at the University of
Nebraska in August.
But Hansen’s focus Saturday will
be on graduating with her first degree.
The keynote speaker at the gradu
ation exercises will be Steven Sample,
president of the University of South
ern California in Los Angeles. He was
president of the State University of
New York at Buffalo from 1982 to
1991, before assuming the top post at
use.
Also at the ceremony, Val L. Fitch
and Kermit Hansen will receive hon
orary degrees from the NU Board of
Regents.
Fitch, a Merriman, Neb., native, is
the James S. McDonnell Distinguished
University Professor of Physics at
Princeton University. He shared the
1980 Nobel Prize for physics and
worked on the Manhattan Project dur
ing World War II.
Kai Wilken/DN
Kermit Hansen was a 2u-year mem
ber of the Board of Regents and, dur
ing his tenure, often attended classes.
He graduated from the University of
Nebraska in 1939.
New at this year’s ceremony is the
option for students to purchase a vid
eotape of the event. According to
Karen Underwood, UNL special
events coordinator, a video company
will tape the ceremony’s speaker, as
well as each graduating student’s walk
across the stage.
“The commencement committee
has discussed offering this service
for some time now,” Underwood
said. “We want to meet all students’
needs, especially those students
whose parents can’t come to com
mencement.”
Billboard makes UNL professor ‘cool’
By Angie Schendt
Staff Reporter
Those who know University of
Nebraska-Lincoln Professor George
Tuck may have thought they were
hallucinating on the way to work or
class last week.
Tuck, a news-editorial professor,
and his wife, Mary Lynn, are featured
on a billboard at the intersection of
48th and Vine streets.
“I have gotten a lot of razzing about
it,” Tuck said.
The billboard advertises Lincoln
Electric Systems. The couple is pic
tured on the right of the billboard
against a yellow background. To the
left of the couple are the words, “We’re
cool with our heat pump.” A strip
identifying Tuck and his wife runs
across the top of the sign.
Tuck said his wife had received
calls from people who had seen it, and
he had received calls from former and
present students.
The comments have all been in
good fun, he said.
“The rough stuff has been from my
colleagues.”
The billboard can be spotted at
several locations, including the one
on Vine Street and one by Lincoln
High School. The billboards went on
display last week and should be up for
a few more weeks.
Tuck said the company approached
him to do the advertisement.
7 have gotten a lot of
razzing about it. ”

UNL news-editorial professor
“They asked at a meeting for some
one who had a heat pump and was
willing to talk about it,” he said.
The billboard might become one of
a series featuring people wtm receive
services from Lincoln Electric Sys
tems, he said.
Tuck said the experience had been
fun, but would he do another billboard?
“I hope not,” he said. , *

property taxes or abortion.
Bohlke said she wished the Legis
lature would eliminate legislative reso
lutions, which often recognized a spe
cial day or congratulated a person for
an achievement.
She would like to recapture the
minutes spent on resolutions, she said,
especially as the pace begins to pick
up near the session’s end.
“They take up time that could be
better spent,” she said.
Overall, Lindsay said he was satis
fied with the session. But there was
one thing he would have changed.
“I would’ve liked to see our salary
doubled,” he joked.
