scat through driver’s education,”
she said. “It’s time to tell them what
to do in the back scat.”
Abstinence, however, remains
-the safest way to prevent diseases
and unwanted pregnancies, Elders
said. Therefore, masturbation must
be included in the health care cur
riculum.
“We should teach young people
about all phases of sex,” she said.
“That they’ll get hair on their hands,
go bl ind, go crazy—al 1 those things
arc lies. Seventy percent of women
and 90 percent of men masturbate
— and the others lie.”
Another problem of the current
care system, Elders said, is that
many patients in rural areas don’t
have access to doctors.
States such as Nebraska and Ar
kansas have too many doctors in
the cities, while most residents live
in rural areas, she said.
The health care system, how
ever, should encourage young doc
tors to become general ists. and work
in small communities, Elders said.
To achieve that, every U.S. citi
zen must have health insurance, she
said.
Employersmust be required, she
said, to pay insurance for all their
workers.
Returning hall residents
could earn scholarship
Plans are in the works for a scholar
ship for returning residence hall stu
dents.
The scholarship, which would be
sponsored by the University of Ne
braska-Lincoln Residence Hall Asso
ciation, is still pending approval by
RHA, but the tentative amount is $500.
“The purpose of the scholarship is
to retain student leaders within the
halls,” said Eric Vander Woude, RHA
president.
It would be directly applied to the
recipient’s room and board fees.
The RHA executive committee
came up with the idea and received
suggestions about it from members of
the senate at Sunday night’s meeting.
Students maintaining a 2.5 grade
point average and returning to the
residence halls can apply, Vandcr
Woude said.
According to the rules in the resi
dence hall applications, applicants
would need to be in good disciplinary
standing with the Office of University
Housing.
They also would need to submit
two letters of recommendation, one
from someone within the residence
hall system other than their roommate,
and tne other one from someone out
side the halls.J
Student assistants would not be eli
gible.
Vander Woude said RHA had not
decided if the application process
would begin later this spring or in the
fall.
