State power may increase
JBy Doug Peters
Senior Editor
Moves to balance state and federal govern
ments’ power are picking up steam, Gov. Ben
Nelson said Monday.
“This train is rolling down the track at a fairly
significant rate of speed,” he said.
Nelson made his comments from Cincinnati,
where he is leading the National Conference on
Federalism.
By bringing together state leaders from five
organizations, Nelson said, the conference will be
instrumental in making changes in the way federal
government deals with state governments.
The governor voiced his frustration with the
lack of balance between federal and state gov
ernments, saying today’s government wasn’t
what America’s founders had in mind when
they drafted the Constitution. He said state
governments were meant to function as partners
of the federal government, rather than playing a
subservient role.
“If you go back and look at the Federalist
Papers,” he said, “and take a look at the Bill of
Rights and all the amendments and then take a
look at where we are... it seems as though 200
years have resulted in a completely different
relationship than we had envisioned.”
Nelson listed four possible remedies to the
lack of governmental balance.
First, he said, a federal act could give states
a more effective role in federal government
obligations.
Second, states could have the power to re
quire Congress to reconsider laws that no longer
have the support of the American people.
Third, Nelson said, a balance might be
achieved by allowing states to propose specific
constitutional amendments.
Finally, statutory remedies and/or constitu
tional reform could resolve the problem of
conditions attached to federal spending man
dates, Nelson said.
Although progress has been made in control
ling unfunded federal mandates and shifting
financial burdens to the states, he said, more
steps need to be taken.
“We’re not going to be benefited as a coun
try if in the balancing of the federal budget, they
bust the budgets of the state and local govern
ments,” he said.
Residents get new lunch option
By Nancy Zywiec
Staff Reporter
The Dining Service at Harper-Schramm
Smith Residence Hall Complex offers an alter
native to eating lunch in the dining room.
Beginning this semester, residents can get a
“grab-and-go” lunch Monday through Friday
during regular lunch hours, 10:45 a.m. to 1:15
p.m.
Virginia Bechtold, food service manager,
said students liked the new service because it
allowed them to grab lunch between classes and
eat at a later time or outside on a nice day.
“It seemed to be a popular request,” Bechtold
said.
Some items residents can choose from in
elude: hamburgers, deli sandwiches, the choice
of the day, desserts, yogurt and beverages,
Bechtold said.
Between two and 250 residents take advan
tage of the alternative lunch daily, she said, and
the number keeps rising.
The grab-and-go breakfast program began
last year in all residence hall dining services,
she said. Residents can grab rolls, muffins, juice
and coffee during regular breakfast hours, 6:45
a.m. to 9:45 a.m.
Also during those hours, residents could
make a sack lunch that they can eat later,
Bechtold said.
Bechtold said she was not sure if grab-and
go lunches would continue or expand, but the
program will be assessed at the end of the year.
