invited to interview for the position this month. Bolarid is Professor of En-glish in New Hampshire. Nichols is Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences in Texas. Interviews willbe conducted March 24 through 31. In addition to the informa-tion booth, UPC sponsored an AIDS quilt contest. Gerlach hopes that the entries received this year will become part of a larger quilt next year. The cul-minating event for the week was held Thursday evening in the Administration Audito-rium when Henry Nichols came to talk to NSU students about AIDS. Nichols, twenty years old contracted HIV when he was ten years old through contami-nated blood he received dur-ing a transfusion. This is now extremely rare, as blood is screened thoroughly for the HIV virus. Nichols decided speak out abou t his experiences and tour the country in part to com-plete his community service project for becoming an Eagle Scout. Gerlach felt NSU students would find it easy to relate to Nichols as a peer, and that their response to his struggles would result in a better under-standing of all people who are not dying, but living with AIDS.

Assistant House Democratic Leader Vince Green of Vermillion says it is not fair to ask the universities to handle more students without giving them the faculty needed to teach those students. He says state government can afford to spend the extra money on the universities. House Republican Leader Larry Gabriel of Cottonwood says the higher education system must join the rest of state government in trying to become more efficient. Higher education officials have said the lack of funding could mean that student tuition will be increased by 20 percent or the univer-sities will be unable to provide services needed by the nearly 22,000 students.
