switched lanes and bowled with a dif
ferent group of children.
“I just wanted to bowl well to help
out the kids I was bowling with, and I
didn’t want to disappoint them with a
low score,” Sonnenfeld said.
Sonnenfeld didn’t disappoint. He
started out with a 300, something he’d
done only seven times before.
After the groups switched lanes for
the second game, the strikes just kept
coming.
As the pins continued to fall 10 at a
time, the crowd of onlookers behind
Sonnenfeld continued to grow.
“I had never had two 300s in a row
before, so that was pretty cool. As I
kept going, I just tried to stay relaxed,”
Sonnenfeld said. .
Sonnenfeld said that after two 300
point games in a row, other bowlers
wanted him to bowl on their team.
By the time the 10th frame in the
.third game rolled around, the crowd
was cheering after every frame.
“During the last three shots every
one was watching and cheering,” he
said. “Before the last one, everything
just stopped as I stepped onto the ap
proach.
“I knew it was a good shot when
the ball left my hand, and then when
the pins fell the entire place erupted.”
His teammates rushed forward and
hoisted him upon their shoulders to
celebrate. After the celebration sub
sided Sonnenfeld signed autographs
for all the tournament participants.
All of Sonnenfeld’s teammates
agreed this could not have happened
to a nicer guy.
“It was amazing to watch history
being made,” UNL bowler Chad Oachs
said. “I didn’t think it was possible. It
Since then, SonnenfelS lias been
caught up in a whirlwind of attention
from local and national media and
bowling groups.
“My phone has been ringing con
stantly since 6 o’clock Sunday night,”
he said. “I’ve had calls from all over.
When I came here (Sun Valley Lanes)
at three, the press was here waiting.”
In addition to the local news,
Sonnenfeld’s story was covered by
CNN and USA Today. Sonnenfeld said
he hoped the attention his feat has
earned will bring more coverage to his
team and his sport.
“Bowling deserves the same respect
as football or any other sport,”
Sonnenfeld said.
And even after setting this record
there are still other goals Jeremy wants
to accomplish in bowling.
“I have always wanted to bowl for
Team USA and represent our country
in competition,” Sonnenfeld said.
Despite the prospect of large sums
of money for becoming a professional
bowler, Sonnenfeld is planning on
completing his degree. He said he
would continue to bowl for the
university’s national championship
team.
“The team is great,” he said. “Ev
eryone really supported me, and we are
all good friends. It was neat to be able
to share that moment with them.”
Though he’s received calls from as
far away as New Zealand, the 20-year
old native of Sioux Falls, S.D., still has
to find the time to go to class and do
his homework like everyone else.
“The press coverage has been in
sane,” Sonnenfeld said. “I just have to
try to live my life as before. Tomor
row aftemobn I’ll be back at practice
doing drills.”

The statement’s highlights are:..
■ An ASUN demand that stu
dent organizations include in then
constitutions statements that they do
not discriminate “on the basis of a
person’s age, race, national origin,
color, gender, sexual orientation,
creed, handicap or place of resi
dence.” f' -
■ A RHA reaffirmation that it
shall not discriminate “on the basis
of a person’s age, race, national ori
gin, color, gender, creed or sexual
orientation.”
■ An EFC and Panhellenic As
sociation reaffirmation that they re
will not be based on racial or ethnic
status.”
The statement’s other reaffirma
tions and calls to action by student
organizations are: combatting racism
in any form, becoming more aware
of die sensitivities and concerns of mi
norities, and embracing cultural di
versity in the university community
and student organizations.
Marintzer said the four organi
zations have been practicing the
values in the statement. He said the

Marintzer, Hart), Johi&on and

Activities may include inviting
members of minority groups to ,

Bethea, director of the Lied Center
for Performing Arts, discussed the
possibility of similar speaking engage
ments at the center.
Schwartzkopf said she and

Karstens and fraternity chapter ad

Schwartzkopf said. “I envision in

amounts of research funding, he said.
Improving the trend of a better un
dergraduate education also would be on
the front burner, as he said large research
land-grant universities like UNL must be
<r student-centered universities intent on
* meeting the needs of all students.
This means the campus should be
open to women and minorities — and
not just legally open, he said, adding
that there must be an atmosphere where
all students are valued and have an
opportunity to achieve.
Edwards said it was important to
extend this environment through the
ranks of faculty and staff.
“We need to make sure women and
§ minorities are represented in all ranks,
including the senior ranks,” Edwards
said.
Edwards said he also would work
to create a greater collaboration among
colleges and departments on both City
and East campuses. The campuses have
a lot to learn from each other, and UNL
will be a stronger institution if the two
have a stronger bond, he said.
Moeser said Edwards plans to visit
the campus often beginning March 15
before he assumes his position one
month later. His appointment as senior
vice chancellor will be subject to the
approval of the NU Board of Regents.

fects and what it would accom
plish.
Rich Webster, public informa
tion officer for the NDEQ, said
UNL’s application was ranked
among the top third of all appli
cations received.
“The committee that reviews
the applications obviously felt that
it was a well-designed proposition
that would have a fairly good im
pact,” Webster said.
UNL could use four or five
cardboard compactors, Ekart
said, but the money awarded by
me grani omy allows ror two.
“We didn’t get as much money
as we wanted, but we did get
more than we expected,” he said.
The compactors will be used
to save space and time when load
ing trucks with cardboard waste
generated mostly from the food
service and maintenance depart
ments.
Currently, UNL has one card
board compactor used for recy
cling at Selleck Hall where results
have shown an increase in effi
ciency compared to sites without
compactors.
“We have large objects that
take a long time to load if they
are not compacted,” Ekart said.
“It will also save five to 10 min
utes per trip. Take that over 200
times, and it’s a great savings.”
Although the compactors will
be a great benefit to the efficiency
of the recycling program, he said,
it will be difficult for students to
participate directly in cardboard
recycling.
Ekart suggested that if stu
dents want to recycle their card
board boxes, they should not
throw them down the chutes or
in the trash, but should ask a
maintenance or custodial em
ployee.
