Judge Lindsey Milier-Lerman was the first woman to sit on a session of the Nebraska Supreme
Court.
Judge
Continued from Page 1
But being a woman has not stopped
her from climbing every rung of her
ladder.
“I haven’t hit a wall,” she said,
“although I’m aware that they arc in
existence.”
Millcr-Lerman said she was able
to overcome a major obstacle early in
her career.
When she started work at an
Omaha law firm in 1975, she asked if
she could work part-time so she could
care for her two small children. The
law firm agreed to it, she said.
Later, Miller-Lerman became a
partner at that same law firm—while
still working part-time.
“That’s not a traditional profile,”
she said.
But, it hasn’t always been that
easy. Being a woman in a male-domi
nated field has made the judge face
discrimination.
Miller-Lerman said she remem
bered one incident about 10 years ago
when she encountered discrimina
tion while presenting a case.
“The judge asked me to stand up
and twirl around and then he said,
‘My compliments to your tailor.’ I
didn’t remark on it at the time be
cause I was there representing my
client, but it was reported to some of
his colleagues.”
Discrimination existed when her
career first began, she said, because
there were not many women in law.
“Either the other counsel or the
other players were unaccustomed to
women as advocates,” she said.
But Miller-Lerman said she was
optimistic about women’s roles in
law — both now and in the future.
“Things are coming around and
the issues are more subtle,” she said.
“There’s also a greater gender aware
ness and increasing study of it. I’m
optimistic because of the attention
within the profession.”
Yet the issue of discrimination
still remains, at least to some extent,
she said.
“In a curious way we need to ask
,ourselves: ‘Why aren’t there two
women judges on the Nebraska Court
of Appeals?”’ she said.
Although Miller-Lerman could be
seen as a role model for young women,
she said she doesn’t think of herself
as one.
“I don’t look in a mirror like that,”
she said. “I have had women and
young ladies tell me that I am one. I
hope they are right.”
Miller-Lerman said she wanted to
be a positive influence for both young
women and young men.
“I think what I do is helpful for
men and women, especially girls,”
she said. “I want to give them a con
crete image.”
Hot Dogs
Continued from Page 1
has sold hot dogs since 1963 at home
games and is famous for throwing the
hot dogs to fans in the stands.
“In all my years here, I have al
ways sold out by halftime,” Potter
said in a telephone interview from
Lexington. “Last year, with these new
hot dogs, I would still be trying to sell
them in the fourth quarter.”
Potter said he had received many
crowd complaints about the hot dogs.
He said the new hot dogs weren’t as
accepted by the crowd. Sometimes,
he said, people would throw half
eaten hot dogs back to him and would
criticize him for their quality.
“I was very concerned about my
career as a hot dog seller,” Potter
said.
Roode said Fairbury would return
with a new promotion for the 1995
season. Fairbury will place a coupon
in 100 of the roughly 21,000 hot dog
wrappers sold at each home game.
The coupon will be redeemable for a
free package of Fairbury hot dogs
sold at local grocery stores.
In other Memorial Stadium
changes:
• Joe Selig, assistant athletic di
rector for facilities and events, said a
lighted National Championships sign
for the 1970,1971 and 1994 national
titles will be in place for the first
home game against Arizona State.
• HuskerVision will feature new
graphics, new sound effects and a few
surprises at Saturday’s game.
Jeff Schmahl, game day producer,
said changes had been in the works
since last summer.
“We felt like we had a really good
first year,” Schmahl said, “but we
never want to become complacent.”
HuskerVision also will feature new
photos of the football team and possi
bly movie clips, he said.
