NU regents approve more garage funds REGENTS from page 1 year sooner,” she said. The improvements project was originally going to cost $36.1 million. The project will be completed by June 1999. Regent Charles Wilson of Lincoln said the plan would keep the project within that budget, avoiding problems that NU has faced with the Lied TVansplant Center, where construction es timates exceeded the predicted cost of the project. Board members also moved to help avoid another problem: the passage of ballot initia tives 411 and 412. The regents voted to endorse a statement signed by higher education administrators that opposes the initiatives, saying funding for higher education would be cut if they passed. Regent Rosemary Skrupa of Omaha said it was not the board’s place to take a stance on legislation. **We*ll have tnhrimnn everv rieoislative hill\ that affects the university’s status, and that’s a very dangerous thing to do,” Skrapa said. “I can’t recall when we started endorsing constitu tional amendments.” Regent Drew Miller of Papillion said the board should take a stance “just for this one spe cial case.” 3 In other regents news, the board: —Reversetfthe denial of tenure by the UNL Department of Chemistry for assistant chemis try professor Jody Redepenning. — Approved spending an additional $775,600 for repairs and improvements to the Nebraska Unions and University Bookstore. — Approved the purchase of 300 digital parking meters at UNL for $50,000 with sur plus parking revenue funds. Most meters at UNL were bought in 1959 and require frequent re pairs, Jones said. — Allotted $300,000 to buy land and the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity house at 420 Uni versity Terrace.

Stars lose opener, still shine in Lincoln’s eyes STARS from page 1 ally are great for just the Stars’ first game.” Hie Lancers brought a large contingent of fans who sat in the north section of the arena. Fans in the general admission seats included Dan Dittman, a UNL sophomore from Omaha. ‘I’m from Omaha, but tonight I’m rooting for the Stars,” Dittman said. Many other students from Omaha, who were long-time Lancer fans, woe quick to turn on their old team. “The Stars are going to catch on quick, it’s a lot better than Lancer games,” UNL sophomore Kyle Vohl said. The only complaint was a 15 to 20-minute wait for the men’s bathroom. The long bathroom lines might be a result of the Stars offering six beers on tap at the arena. “The concessions are great,” JLJNL senior Randy Puschsaid. “ft’s a lot cheaper than Tex-, pected. It’s great to have this kihdtff selection.? I’U definitely come to another game.” ■ y Concession stand worker Jaque Ratliff said jeer and hot dogs were the biggest sellers. “We’ve been very busy, but customers have jeen very nice,” Ratliff said. “No one’s been jutofline.” The ‘Ice Box” is the converted State Fair Coliseum.
