ASUN meets to evaluate
goals, student advising
By Kasey Kerber
Staff Reporter
The Association of Students of the
University of Nebraska held a short
meeting Wednesday night to re-exam
ine platform goals and discuss student
advising.
Advising, an is
sue ASUN has
dealt with since
November, once
again was brought
into the open.
“We had hoped
that this would be
over before
break,” ASUN
President
Shawntell Hurtgen
said.
“But the Admissions and Advising
Committee wants more input from stu
dents than just the list of concerns we
presented to them.”
One senator representing each col
lege was selected to meet with the Ad
missions and Advising Committee in
the near future. Hurtgen said she ex
pected action on the issue to be taken
by no later than the second week of
February.
Hurtgen also brought out a list of
platform goals and checked off the ones
ASUN had achieved.
Accomplished ASUN platform
goals include: getting more metered
parking on East Campus, increasing
relations with minority groups and
small organizations by establishing the
President’s Round Table and opening a
24-hour study area in the union.
The remaining platform goals in
cluded: increasing core class availabil
ity, improving facilities for equal usage
by handicapped people, making student
input available during the renewal poli
cies of deans, standardizing teacher
evaluations throughout all colleges, and
maintaining lab and student fees at the
level of or below the rate of inflation.
In further action, a committee was
announced to gather student input on
the possibility of UNL’s modem pool
being turned over to a commercial pro
vider.

had not been told to refuse the cou
pon. Coles would not comment fur
ther.
Both stores accepted the coupon.
Dan Murphy,, assistant grocery
manager at Super Saver supermarket,
said he hadn’t heard of the law, either.
The law is unjust to retailers and com
panies, he said.
“That just seems unheard of that a
law could do that,” Murphy said.
He said he would look into the law,
so the store could form a policy to
abide by it.
Not only did the store accept the
Skoal coupon, it also sold Silver Creek
chewing tobacco at a two-for-one dis
count. «
Bob Henry, manager of the Cam
pus Comer convenience store at 17th
and R streets, said the law hurt con
sumers.
Prices of smokeless tobacco remain
high — $3 to $4 per canister — be
cause companies and sellers can’t of
fer incentives, he said.
Henry has been refusing the cou
pons since learning of the law by ac
cident. When a Skoal representative
delivered the new product, Henry
asked jokingly if he could have a free
sample.
The representative refused and ex
plained the Nebraska law to him. Al
though Henry said he didn’t agree with
it, he passed the information on to his
cashiers after speaking with the Daily
Nebraskan about the law.
“I think it’s a bogus law. Half the
people in the state don’t even know
about it,” Henry said.
Henry had not originally notified
his employees of the law because he
didn’t think any coupons were ever is
sued in Nebraska, he said. Although a
clerk said she had accepted a Skoal
coupon, Henry said he never had been
fined.
Tickets
Continued from Page 1
I just upped my requests,” he said.
Michael Mulnix, executive direc
tor for university relations, said not
everyone who requested additional
tickets received them.
“It all depends on the amount of
tickets,” Mulnix said. “We tried to
keep it as low as possible. There were
no written rules or procedures, but
maybe that needs to be discussed.”
The largest request for additional
tickets from the chancellor’s office
was eight tickets ordered by Harvey
Perlman, interim senior vice chancel
lor for academic affairs.
Mulnix said all the additional tick
ets requested by chancellor’s office
members were used for their families.
Herb Howe, associate to the chan
cellor, said the free tickets and trip for
administrators was justified.
“We arc expected to represent the
university while we are there,” Howe
said. “We visit with university donors
and supporters of the university.”
