Students fight possible veto
Governor's action
could leave UNL
$5 million short
By Kasey Kerber
Staff Reporter
A SUN and RHA have joined forces
against Gov. Ben Nelson in an effort to
keep student tuition from rising.
The action is aimed at Nelson’s
threat to veto a bill allotting $5 million
to the University of Nebraska for sal
ary increases.
The figure had been $7 million, but
it was reduced to $5 million as a com
promise between legislators and the
governor. Even with the lowered
amount, Nelson still may veto the bill.
If the bill is vetoed, which could
occur early this week, the University
of Nebraska, which is committed to
the salary increases, would be faced
with raising $5 million.
In a joint effort, the Residence Hall
Association and Association of Stu
dents of the University of Nebraska
recently sent out letters to every stu
dent living in the residence halls. They
encouraged students to write letters to
legislators and encourage their par
ents to join in the cause.
“The letters pretty much inform stu
dents of the current situation and ask
for their help to work toward changing
it,” said Eric Marintzer, A SUN presi
dent.
Marintzer said he believed students
knew the issue existed, but they were
not fully aware of what would result
from a $5 million shortfall.
James Gricsen, vice chancellor for
student affairs, said the consequences
could be drastic.
“In prior rounds of student funding
cuts, we’ve had to eliminate two deans
and become a much flatter institution,”
Gricscn said.
Fees expected to increase
By Todd Anderson
Staff Reporter
Students concerned about Gov.
Ben Nelson’s potential veto of funds
earmarked for university salary in
creases should stop by the Inno
cents Society booth in the Union
today.
A $5 million appropriation in
the state’s main budget bill is under
threat of being slashed by Nelson’s
red pen. University officials have
said they are locked into the raises
the money would fund.
If the measure is vetoed by
Nelson, UNLstudents’ tuition may
increase to support the salary in
creases — as much as 5 percent or
6 percent above any other increase.
Brian Bucschcrofthc Innocents
Society said the measure would
have a major impact on student
tuition. He said the booth would
help to increase awareness of the
issue and provide a petition for stu
dents to sign.
The petition will be sent to stale
legislators to encourage them to
override Nelson’s veto, Bucscher
said.
State senators need a two-thirds
majority to override the veto.
Most students are not as aware
of the issue as they should be, he
“This is an issue that
directly affects
students. If students
were more aivare of
(the issue), then they '
would be more
concerned. ”
BRIAN BUE8CHER
Innocents Society member
said, but a possible tuition increase
was something students should be
interested in.
Buescher said it was important
for the Innocents to get involved in
issues like these to help out the
student body.
“This is an issue that directly
affects students,” lie said. “If stu
dents were more aware of (the is
sue), then they would be more con
cerned.”
The Innocents Society also will
send letters to legislators.
“Our focus is on the legislators,”
he said.
Gricscn said past funding cuts also
have forced the merging of university
programs and an increase in such stu
dent fees as registration and gradua
lion fees.
If Nelson were to veto the bill, this
would be the second straight year the
governor has vetoed a bill allotting
funds to the University of Nebraska.
Last year, Nelson’s veto was overrid
den by the lawmakers.
“I don’t think there’s any evidence
that education is specifically bcingtar
geted by the Legislature,” Gricscn said.
“Yet if the governor vetoes this bill, it
would probably reflect his disagree
ment with the budget and the legisla
tors that have proposed it.”
