J would like to see made at UNL on Tuesday during the first staff meeting since he

Edwards grew up in a small
town in North Dakota, and
attended Griryiell College in
Grinnell, Iowa.
‘After graduating from
Grinnell with a degree in eco
nomics, Edwards attended
Harvard University in
Cambridge, Mass., for graduate
school.
He taught at the University
of Massachusetts before former
UNL Chancedor James Moeser
hired him in 1997.
Moeser, who is now chancel
lor of the University of North
Carobna in Chapel Hid, said he
was “delighted” to know
Edwards was back at work.
“Rick Edwards was the sin
gle best appointment I made at
the University of Nebraska,”
Moeser said.
Moeser said Edwards came
highly recommended for the
job, and he continued to
impress Moeser when the two
worked together.
“He's a superb senior vice
chancedor,” Moeser said. “The
university is so fortunate to have
him-back.”

SERIES from pagel
"I’m afraid this will hurt
recruitment,” he said.
“Now is a big decision time for
high school students (to choose a
college,)” he said.
Despite the possible negative
effects on recruitment, Schafer
said overall, he thought the series
was beneficial.
"I think when citizens of
Nebraska read about our budget
requests, and other issues we face,
it will give them a good perspec
tive on where we need to go in the
future,” he said.
, The series can also benefit
students who’ve been reading
along, he said.
“(The series) shows students
that they need to take an active
role in where the university is
going, even if it’s just to make their
degree worth more in the future,”
he said.
One possible source of confu
sion in the series was a list of
UNL’s "high-quality programs”,
printed in Tuesday^ World
Herald.
The list identified 20 pro
grams that are “highly regarded
within the academic community
nationally.”
Interim Chancellor Harvey
Perlman told UNL’s Academic
Senate the list was not related to
the university’s ongoing prioriti
zation process.
“That list was not created after
elaborate thought,” he said
Tuesday.
Folsom said The World
Herald got the list from UNL’s
Public Relations office.
The list was obtained before
UNL publicly began its prioritiza
tion process, so it isn’t an indica
tion of how the ranking of pro
grams is going, she said.
Folsom said The World
Herald has received a “mixed
bag” of reactions so far.
University officials have been
complimentary about the bal
ance and accuracy of the series,
she said.
The public, though, has more
of a split opinion.
Some people have been
defensive of the charge the uni
versity is simply mediocre,
Folsom said, while others have
been pleased with the series.
“What we hoped to do was
begin a dialogue within the state
about the quality of the universi
ty," she said.
“It’s still too early to tell how
effective it was.”
