in that Giosano reported being
choked by Bertram, then getting
scared and grabbing the butcher
knife.

Bertram reported no choking.
The reports have been referred
to the county attorney, Heermann

Greek Week gets started
with AIDS lecture at Lied
AIDS from page 1
“People know the risks and dan
gers of alcohol and sex. They have to
make their own decisions,” Goldman
said.
The presentation swayed from the
serious, using humor to present its
concepts.
“We didn’t come here to make you
sad,” Sullivan told the audience. “That
would be a bad way to spend the
evening. We want to make you laugh.”
They discussed everything from
condom use to a list Sullivan called
“TJ.’s Scale of Drunken Hominess.”
The scale discussed the four stages of
drunkenness and which inhibitions are
forgotten in each.
The humor and open approach, the
n=- - =
pair said, were more effective.
Blake Wentz, a sophomore ac
counting major, agreed. Wentz is
member of Theta Xi fraternity.
“When I first heard about it,
thought that I would hear the same oli
drab and statistics,” Wentz said. “Be
I thought it was really educational,
think a lot of people will remembe
it.”
Dusty Vaughan, a freshman ii
general studies, agreed and said th
performance was informative and en
tertaining.
“It was a lot better than the othe
things. I could relate to it better tha
if a 40-year-old man came and talk©
to us about it,” said Vaughan, also
member of Theta Xi.

Another bill would put $100 mil
lion of the surplus into a fund that
would be spent — either on schools
or local government — after the lids
go into effect, Kilpatrick said.
These lids and property taxes
might seem far off for college students
because most don’t own property, said
Bill Lock, an analyst in Warner’s of
fice. But because the state’s money will
most likely be going to help schools
and local governments, others in line
for the money might have to miss out,
he said.
“The university is making a pitch
for more state money,” Lock said.
“They’re all competing for the same
money, and one could fall by the way
side.”

Sen. Dan Lynch of Omaha, chair

to see the money going to renovation

Now would be the “best time” to

If schools consolidate, they will not
need as much money; and the bill pro
