“We’ve made a lot of gains in terms
of equality,” she said, “but we’re not
there yet.”
One group that ismonitoringequal
ity at UNL is the Chancellor’s Com
mission on the Status of Women.
The commission acts as a liaison
between the campus community and
the chancellor.
Claudia Price-Decker, former
chairperson, said the commission tried
to bring changes to benefit women.
Recent issues include equalizing
faculty salaries and developing a new
sexual harassment policy.
Women’s issues also have been
made an academic study through the
. Women’s Siudies program.
> Barbara DiBemard, director, said
the program taught students about the
historical and contemporary contri
butions to and by women in society.
“We look at the assumptions about
women in all academic disciplines,”
she said. “We evaluate those assump
tions and decide if they need to be
changed.”
About 30 people chose to major in
Women’s Studies, a program within
the College of Arts and Sciences, she
said; however, most of the people who
take the courses are not Women’s
Studies majors.
The courses fill minority require
ments for other majors, she said, and
have been accepted as part of the new
integrated studies and comprehensive
education program.
There are also several women’s
groups represented outside the
Women’s Studies program, includ
ing:
9 Women in Communication (Col
lege of Journalism and Mass Commu
nications).
• Undergraduate Women in Busi
ness (College of Business Adminis
tration).
• Women Investigating Science
and Environments (started by a grant
from the National Science Founda
tion operating within the university).
• Graduate-Women in Science
(College of Arts and Sciences). '
• Letras Femeninas (Department
of Modem Languages and Literature).
• Society for Women in Engineer
ing (College of Engineering).
The Chancellor’s Commission on
the Status of Women wants to pull all
the influential women on campus and
in the community together for a Dec.
7 conference in the Nebraska Union
called.“Breaking the Glass Ceiling.”
Speakers will include the Rev. Jane
Henan, Nebraska’s only female Epis
copal rector; Cecilia Huerta, director
of the Mexican-American Associa
tion; Lincoln Police Lt. Kim Koluch;
Joan Leitzel, interim chancellor and
Lt. Gov. Kim Robak.

Griesen said. “We’d like her to do
this.” ‘ '
But the Broyhills have only one
interest — that the memory of Lynn
Broyhill is not taken lightly and is
preserved on campus.
“The fami ly really wants a fountain
or something of equal magnitude,”
said Craig Broyhill, Lynn Broyhill’s
brother.
Ideally, the Broyhills would like to
see another fountain constructed iden
tical to the current one, he said. But
they realize that’s an unlikely sce
nario.
Craig Broyhill said the family is
encouraged by the recent increase in
communication with the university.
“They keep saying they want to
include us in everything,” he said. “I
hope they follow through with that.”
. Griesen said the university would
not “leave the Broyhills out in the
cold.”
There is also concern about how
the new construction will affect stu
dents, he said. Since the Union and the
fountain tend to act as a hub for stu
dent life, he said, the expansion must
be carefully planned.
