Miller says comment
was out of context
MiUii from page 1
about standardized testing sim
ply because he thought it was an
important point that needed to
be brought to light
A possible solution to the
minority recruiting dilemma is
for colleges not to be ranked by
standardized test scores because
of die cultural bias that exists in
these tests, Miller said,
His comments were taken
out of context in the Daily
Nebraskan, Miller charged,
which reported on the regents
meeting, including Miller's com
ments, on its front page Monday.
The paper tried to twist his
words to stir a controversy, he said.
The Omaha World-Herald
and the Lincoln Journal Star
reported on the Miller controver
sy on their front pages
Wednesday.
Regardless, Clements said,
what Miller said was attributed to
him, it offended people and he
needs to explain himself
“The point is that students,
faculty and staff are up in arms,
and they need an explanation
and an apology,’' she said.
Since the Daily Nebraskan
story, NU President Dennis
Smith issued a statement on the
university's support for minority
recruiting.
Miller said that he will discuss
this issue with anyone.
Til always talk to anyone
who wants to talk to me," he said.
Death penalty decision deferred
BY JILL CONNER
Day two of the motions
hearing for Randy Reeves ended
with the judge deferring her
decision of whether the death
penalty should be considered in
the sentencing to a later date.
The hearings Tuesday and
Wednesday were to hear
motions filed before Lancaster
County District Judge Karen
Flowers stating the death penal
ty should be disposed of during
Reeves’ re-sentencing.
The motions say the family
members of Reeves’ murder vic
tims, Janet Mesner and Victoria
Lamm, would only experience
more pain, and death by elec
trocution is unconstitutional.
Reeves, 45, was sentenced to
death for the 1980 murders of
Lamm and Mesner at the
Quaker meeting house in
Lincoln.
In 1999, two days before his
scheduled execution, a high
court found the Nebraska
Supreme Court at fault when it
had re-sentenced Reeves in
1990.
Reeves' re-sentencing is now
scheduled for May 29.
Ihesday, die court heard tes
timony from family and friends
of the two women.
Mildred Mesner, mother of
Janet Mesner, testified the death
of Reeves would only cause her
more pain - pain her family
couldn’t bear.
Wednesday, defense attor
neys Paula Hutchinson and Tim
Ford called upon Jerry Soucie,
an attorney for the Nebraska
Commission for Public
Advocacy.
Soucie, who testified
Tuesday, also talked about his
involvement with a study which
alleges that death by electrocu
tion is unconstitutional.
The electrocution research
was used in the Scotts Bluff
County case of State v. Raymond
Mata Jr., in which Judge Robert
Hippe found the Nebraska "four
jolt*’ electrocution procedure to
be unconstitutional.
The Mata case is presently
appealed to the Nebraska
Supreme Court
Soucie said he will present
the study at the Nebraska
Legislature, which is consider
ing a bill that would eliminate
the death penalty.
The defense did not submit
the study to the judge as an
exhibit because it was not com
plete, Lancaster County
Attorney Gary Lacey said. But
Reeves’ attorneys will be
allowed to supplement the
record with the study in the
future, said Lacey.
The defense also submitted
a map of legislative districts and
the judicial districts of
Nebraska.
Lacey said he didn’t know
why these two articles of infor
mation were offered to Flowers.
"The judge took part of the
motions under consideration
and deferred her decision until a
later time," Lacey said.

advertising dollars.
A new program, which will
add $20 to student bills,
approved by the Residence Hall
Association, will bring three
commercial newspapers into

The Daily Nebraskan is
going to have to compete for
advertising dollars with the
Lincoln Journal Star and other
newspapers that will now be
able to reach a greater student

Despite any shortfalls the
newspaper might encounter,
Speaker Jason Mashek then pro
posed an amendment to the bill
to fully fund the newspaper, cut

$9,513. “This is a fair amount,”
he said.
The amendment failed.

amendment foiled 5-13.
McCune said he was “dis

thwarting the democratic

adding stalling tactics.
"I think we are just playing a

Vicki Geiser,

amendment that would cut the
Daily Nebraskan’s budget to

Nathan Fueist, Campus life
Committee chairman and
ASUN president-elect, objected
to the $9,000 amendment The
senate voted and decided to let
the amendment stay on the

Immediately, Gamez asked
to table the bill until the next
