After more than three weeks of de
liberation, ASUN Will vote tonight on
guidelines for the Outstanding Educa
tor award.
Academic Committee chairman
Bronson Riley said “little quirky
things” held up getting the guidelines
completed and into legislation.
Previously, Riley said, the Associa
tion of the Students of the University
of Nebraska had no clear, written
guidelines for the award.
“Right now we’ve got a founda
tion,” Riley said.
To get the Outstanding Educator
congratulatory letter, Riley said, a can
didate must receive 15 or more votes,
as opposed to the one vote that quali
fied them in previous years.
The 15-vote requirement will nar
row the field of recipients, Riley said.
In previous years, there were “pages
and pages” of candidates.
Last weekend, ASUN president
Eric Marintzer and Committee for Fees
Allocation chairman John Weichmann
attended the Big 12 Student Govern
ment Conference in Columbia, Mo.
The conference resulted in die for
mation of the Big 12 Student Govern
ment Alliance, an association devel
oped to lobby government on “issues
of mutual concern,” Marintzer said.
He said the alliance would give
many students the Opportunity to work
together.
“This is important because collec
tively, we represent over 300,000 stu
dents,” Marintzer said.
Also during tonight’s 6:30 p.m.
meeting, Homecoming chairwoman
Andy Vuko will address the senate re
garding the Homecoming week festivi
ties.
Vuko said she hoped to build ex
citement and “make sure that everyone
knows this is it. This is the week we’ve
been planning for for six months.”

When we all work together, great things can happen.
