Where they stand 1 s
KEG
What do you see as the No. 1 issue concerning students?
KEG: Administrative accountability. Making sure administration
is more communicative and responsive to students concerns.
ADVANCE: Any issue dealing with money coming out of
students' pockets. Excessive'technology fees," the deferred
maintenance bin and keeping student student fees at a minimal
level.
How do you think the dissolution of the modem pool should have been handled?
KEG: The people affected by the decision should have been
included. Pliers could have been distributed and an open
forum could have been held.
ADVANCE: Prevention of the problem could have been handled
with better representation on the Campus-Wide Information
Services Committee.
i
What is your stance on the beverage alliance?
KEG: From this point, ensuring that the financial gains from
the alliance go to lowering student fees and offsetting the rise
in tuition are a priority.
ADVANCE: Financial gains from the alliance go toward
improving technology in such areas like a 24-hour computer
lab on East Campus and making improvements to the computer
labs in the residence halls. Enhancement of the honors program
also would be considered a plus.
What is your stance on the legislative bill exempting students from jury duty?
ADVANCE and KEG: A college education is more important than jury duty. Such a service to the community can later be
repaid.
What is your stance on the legislative bill that would double the allowed security deposit and
give landlords a stronger legal recourse?
KEG: Ifs too much of a financial hardship on students to pay
two-months-down deposit as opposed to the current
requirement of one-month's security deposit. Even tenants
who are not students will resent the bill.
ADVANCE: The party is against the "increased power" it
seems to give the landlords in legal situations, and also is
against the increase in security deposits from one month to
two months.
With the Sigma Chi cross burning creating a rift between students and administration, how
do you think administration should have dealt with the situation?
KEG: For Sigma Chi to be put on probation by the national
house was probably not enough. Members of the fraternity
need to be required to attend classes on racial sensitivity.
ADVANCE: The administration acted too late. By waiting to
take action, it was almost as if they condoned the fraternity's
action. Now racism needs to be dealt with on a larger scope.
j
What is your stance on parking?
KEG: Increased student representation on the Parking Services
Advisory Board is a goal. To add two to three student
representatives to the board would better handle students’
concerns with parking.
ADVANCE: The party would increase the publicity that ASUN
does have a student representative on the Parking Services
Advisory Board because a lot of students are not aware of
this.
How would you increase senatorial representation in colleges?
KEG: Going to the deans of each individual college is a step
in the right direction. A dean would be able to recommend
students who might be willing to serve on ASUN.
ADVANCE: The graduate college, dental college and continuing
studies college need specific attention. To increase
representation in these colleges, the ASUN president needs
to go to the colleges and tell college members what ASUN is
about and try to get them involved.

ASUN holds last debate
DEBATE from page 1
ability to work hard was necessary to
win the regents’ respect.
But Scott Brauer, presidential can
didate for KEG, said that being in
formed and working hard was not
enough- Representing the students’
concerns also was important, he said.
“If I show the regents that I’m go
ing to blow off the student body, I’m
not going to gain their respect,”
Brauer said. “But by voicing their con
cerns on every issue, I’ll be doing just
that.”
Another issue dealt with making
students more aware than they are now
of politics on and off campus.
Malcolm Kass, second vice-presi
dential candidate for ADVANCE, said
getting students involved in ASUN’s
committees was a good start.
Heather Olsen, second vice-presi
dential candidate for KEG, said vot
ing was the most important step to
being politically active.
Monday’s debate, sponsored by the
College Republicans and Young
Democrats, was the last before the first
vote is cast Wednesday.
Voting booths will open at 8 a.m.
in both Nebraska Unions and at the
Lee and Helene Sapp Recreation Cen
ter. Polls open at noon in the Sandoz
Lounge and the Neihardt Gold Parol
and at 4 p.m. in the Harper food ser
vice building. All polls close at 8 pjn.
Dorm safety called adequate
SAFETY from page 1
the NU Board of Regents, former NU
football player Christian Peter and
1991 football recruit Ken Bello.
Redmond filed a civil suit against
the university four years after Peter
allegedly raped her twice during Sep
tember 1991 in Smith and Harper resi
dence halls.
Ken Bello, who never played for
the Huskers, allegedly touched
Redmond during the second assault.
The civil suit said the university
had failed to provide an environment
free from sexual harassment and dis
crimination, as required in Title IX of
the 1972 Education Amendments.
Zatechka said the university
worked hard to ensure the safety of
the campus and residence halls. In
1991, before the rapes allegedly oc
curred, security measures were stepped
up at UNL as a result of a national
campus crime and safety act.
In 1991 and 1992, die university
installed blue light emergency phones
on campus and hired more campus
security officers to patrol residence
halls, he said.
Other safety measures include 24
hour desk coverage at the residence
halls and locked halls between mid
night and 6:30 a.m. Peep holes are
installed in all residence hall room
doors.
UNL also pays $220,000 for cam
pus security officers who constantly
patrol dorms at night, Zatechka said, i
Because of these efforts, personal
safety often relies on the individual, i
he said. Zatechka said he believed vic
tims should never be blamed for as
saults, and UNL housing took all com- =
plaints of assault filed by or against
dorm residents seriously.
Richard Wood, NU general coun
sel, said other university members had
expressed concern that cases similar
to Redmond’s could be filed against
NU and require other expensive settle
ments or legal action.
“I don’t think the case has any
precedential value,” Wood said.
