Mother posts bond to release Dunagan DUNAGAN from page 1 “He is more than welcome back at Pius High School,” Hansen said Wednesday. Lancaster County Chief Deputy Attorney John Colbom said Dunagan was “a bright young man.” Dunagan’s bond had originally been set at 10 percent of $500,000 by Lancaster County Court Judge James L.

He said when some of the final reallocation goals were not met in August, he felt some what responsible. “At that point it was discovered we had undershot the goal by quite a bit,” Wubbels said. “It became increasingly clear that it was a source of grief for the chancellor. I shouldn’t haw missed the mark that wide.” James Roark, chairman of the UNK chemistry department, will take over the position temporarily. Wubbels said he had no comment regarding whether or not his resigna tion preempted a possible termina tion from the university. Johnston did not return calls from the Daily Nebraskan Thursday night.

Activities scheduled j for Coming Out Week By Dawn Dietrich • Staff Reporter The Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender Resource Center wants to use 1997 Coming Out Week to show homosexual students that there is a support system for them at UNL. A week of activities at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, highlighted with a talk by a popular gay television actor, will lead up to Coming Out Day on Friday. National Coming Out Day com memorates the 1987 march on Washington for lesbian and gay rights. “We want to promote visibility,” Alison Knudson, president of GLBT, said. Knudson said she thinks that “tibe more of us who are out, the bet ter stereotypes will come with it” GLBT has events planned throughout the week to aid in its mis sion. It starts today with an open house in the GLBT Resource Center, Nebraska Union Room 234. The week’s main event is a visit from actor Wilson Cruz, who played - ll.

The Human Rights Campaign will have political activist Donna Red Wing speak about “On the Road to Equality.” Red Wing is the campaign’s women’s advocate of the year and will speak Thursday in the Culture Center from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. GLBT provides support, counsel ing and a safe environment for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered individuals. It also educates and informs students about human sexu ality, Knudson said. Knudson said one of GLBT’s goals was to support students.
