THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
LETTER FROM THE EDITOR Dear readers, In the windowsill of my office, resting on top of a copy of Webster’s New World College Dictionary sitting next to the 16-year-old plant that was gifted to The Daily Nebraskan at its centennial celebration in 2001, there’s a coffee mug. It reads – in all caps – “I love the smell of newsprint in the morning.” It’s a familiar smell for those of us who spend our weeknights in the bowels of the Nebraska Union producing a bi-weekly print newspaper that we still call The Daily Nebraskan. But maybe not for much longer. On June 13, 1901, The Daily Nebraskan appeared on newsprint for the first time. Today, April 27, 2017, it does so again, likely for the last time. Last week, the Publications Board voted unanimously to discontinue bi-weekly printing of The Daily Nebraskan newspaper, instead opting for a more robust online presence supplemented by a monthly magazine. When I realized that my last print night in the depths of the Nebraska Union would be the last print night of its kind, I couldn’t help
but feel the sense of nostalgia creeping up on me. As a graduating senior, I’ve been checking off a lot of “lasts” recently: Last student bill notification, last final paper, last all-nighter (I hope). The last print issue of The Daily Nebraskan. I was determined to make it special. Then I realized something: They’ve all been special. And whether or not it’s published on newsprint, the smell of newsprint will never escape this office. That’s because the smell of newsprint is more than ink on paper. It’s a sweet smell of accomplishment after a two-month project finally shows up on campus newsstands in the morning. It’s a fresh smell of dozens of student stories and opinions appearing, week by week, in the pale blue cabinets that house the current year’s issues. It’s a musty smell of more than a century’s worth of campus history collecting in bright red bound volumes in the DN archive room. The smell of newsprint will always remind
me of the friends and the memories I’ve made here – and the lessons I’ve learned. The smell of newsprint might fade, but I know – and you should, too – that the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s only independent student newspaper isn’t going anywhere. It’ll just smell a little different in the future. Cheers.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Print shift made with future, finance in mind Jessica Larkins dn staff writer
After 116 years, The Daily Nebraskan will no longer print newspapers and instead will publish a monthly magazine. The major shift in format and frequency of print issues, which shifted from daily to biweekly in fall 2014, will take place in the fall. Publications Board members voted to change the print format during the April 18 meeting after considering dwindling print readership and contentious debates about The Daily Nebraskan’s funding by the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska. Matt Waite, a Publications Board member and professor of practice of journalism at UNL, said the Board has discussed changing the way The Daily Nebraskan does print in the past few years, but never “pulled the trigger” until now. “The simple fact of the matter is that college students don’t read print,” Waite said. The Daily Nebraskan was once the fifth largest daily newspaper in the state. After switching to printing twice a week in 2014,
Waite said it wasn’t the “magic bullet” to continue printing while not losing any money. The Daily Nebraskan needed to change the way it does print. However, Waite said he hopes he never sees the day when print is taken away entirely. “Before that meeting, I could very easily have envisioned a day where The Daily Nebraskan didn’t publish another thing on dead trees,” he said. “There’s educational value in publishing a print product. As a publications board, we have to remember that this is an educational experience for students.” Aidan Connolly, the incoming editor-inchief of The Daily Nebraskan, said he’s optimistic about the upcoming change to a magazine format. He said readers can expect more feature and in-depth stories in the magazine. “Converting to the magazine is an investment,” Connolly said. “We need to make an investment to benefit our readers.” Without full funding, however, an investment like this might not have been possible, according to both Waite and Connolly. This spring, the Committee for Fee Allocations and ASUN debated for months about
The Daily Nebraskan’s funding. On Feb. 16, CFA rejected The DN’s student fee allocation request of $134,882 and instead recommended a $114,650 allocation. Eric Rodene, an ASUN senator and a member of the CFA subcommittee that lowered The DN’s funding, said as a CFA member, he wanted to send a message to The Daily Nebraskan that it had to try and find alternative sources of revenue to become profitable again. “CFA needed to do something to indicate to The DN that [it] needs to do something to address this issue,” Rodene said. “The only tool we had to do that was to change the allocation.” ASUN senators discussed the student publication’s funding during its March 8 senate meeting and ultimately decided pass The Daily Nebraskan’s initial budget request of $134,882. Former ASUN president Spencer Hartman then vetoed the fee allocation. Hartman said he wanted to bring the fee allocation back down to CFA’s recommendation of $114,650. The Daily Nebraskan brought the case to UNL
Student Court, saying the president does not have the constitutional authority to reduce a line item within an appropriation of funding, according to ASUN bylaws. Ultimately, the Court ruled in favor of The DN and the publication was granted full funding. Greg Dittman, an ASUN senator and also a member of The Daily Nebraskan’s CFA subcommittee, said in an email that he saw the switch to a magazine as a step in the right direction. He added it is still too early to tell how big of a role the switch will play in the funding decision for next year. “The CFA’s main concern still exists since the cutting of expenses does not equate to the pursuance of alternative revenue streams,” he said. Connolly said having full funding gives the staff and the Publications Board the peace of mind to switch from a newspaper to a magazine. He said he’s proud of the work the staff has put in so far to make this transition possible. “This isn’t going to be an easy project,” Connolly said. “But I think it will be worth it.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
Amidst change, DN a UNL staple for 116 years Kayla Kyle dn staff writer
The first issue of The Daily Nebraskan, published 116 years ago, included stories on alumni banquets and advertisements for wool skirts and suits. It was four pages in length and, in addition to stories, featured a column from its editorial board stating The Daily Nebraskan did not have an editorial policy “because everyone would forget it anyway.” And while some things have changed – today’s Daily Nebraskan, the last standard print issue standard print issue, features no skirt advertisements, and The DN now has a policy handbook that spans 23 pages – the publication continues to cover similar campus events. When The Daily Nebraskan first published, the University Alumni Association was celebrating its 25th annual banquet. They will be celebrating their 141st banquet this year. Carrie Myers, the coordinator of the alumni banquet, said the banquet has always been a way to celebrate alumni of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. It takes place every year on the Thursday before graduation. “What’s great about this program is that
we learn about alumni doing cool things and then are able to feature them in magazines,” Myers said. Myers said that the banquet has changed as new technology has developed through the years. “I think probably over the last number of years, technology has changed so much and we’ve been able to do more with the way we talk about our alumni so it’s not alumni standing up and saying, ‘Thank you for this award,’ like a lot of events,” she said. “Instead we actually have our MC actually interview each alumni and ask them about their experience. In that way, it’s evolved over the years.” The 1901 issue also said that having an editorial policy wasn’t worth publishing and wouldn’t interest readers. “It is not necessary to have an editorial policy. No one would remember it or even give it any consideration,” the column said. The Daily Nebraskan now has a handbook, which is updated every two years, that broadly describes its policy. The Daily Nebraskan promised to improve the paper every issue in their 1901 paper. Today, this is still a

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Campuses across country shift from print Alli Dickey dn staff writer
Next fall The Daily Nebraskan will switch to a monthly magazine print format, in step with a national trend of campus newspapers moving away from printing daily papers. The change comes as more and more publications are seeing less print readership and more online shares of articles. Schools in the Big Ten and bordering the University of Nebraska-Lincoln have taken different approaches to handling this issue. The University Daily Kansan at the University of Kansas changed from printing four times a week to printing twice a week in 2015. Lara Korte, the editor-in-chief, said The University Daily Kansan decided to focus on going digital first, which means the stories post online when they happen rather than waiting for the print edition. Korte said the quicker hourly deadlines invigorated the newsroom and brought more viewers to their site in the past two years. “In the digital revolution, platforms develop at a rapid rate,” she said. “We are trying to focus on what works and what works best.” Korte said she thinks switching from a daily print edition was a positive and necessary change for The University Daily Kansan. The Diamondback, the University of Maryland’s campus newspaper, switched from daily printing to weekly in 2015. Danielle Ohl, the editor-in-chief for the past school year, said it was a necessary change to keep the newspaper financially stable. he said although they have suffered a loss in visibility because there are less physical papers
out, it was a positive change. “Going from daily to weekly opened up our evenings and our headspace,” she said. “We were able to dedicate significantly more time to digital expansion and audience engagement as well as special projects.” Since the change, The Diamondback was able to start a podcast and a special investigations desk. They also reached 1 million sessions for the first time. “If we can keep innovating and keep trying to meet readers where they need the news, I’ll be happy,” she said. Although many campus newspapers have had to move away from daily printing, some, such as The University of Iowa’s The Daily Iowan, continues to print every weekday. Lily Abromeit, The Daily Iowan editor-inchief, said the newspaper has been able to print daily because of its funding from alumni, donors and ad sales. But the paper has had to cut back on the number of pages. Although The Daily Iowan still prints daily, it has moved to a digital-first approach as well. Abromeit said they are focusing on getting things online first. However, she said she thinks the newspaper still gets a lot of value out of print publications. “With print publications, we think about each story differently, what’s most important, how will we display it,” she said. “It is more difficult but it is still feasible.” New Mexico State University’s publication, The Round Up, is taking the opposite approach by changing from a semiweekly publication to exclusively online. “One average article online is being read as much as print is being picked up all over
file photo | dn campus,” said Albert Luna, the editor-in-chief. The Round Up previously changed from a daily newspaper to a monthly magazine. However, the magazine was met with intense criticism because it was not relevant and had more to do with national news than NMSU news, Luna said. He said it makes sense to switch to online and save money, which is what they will do in July. “People view it as a, ‘We saw the storm coming’ before other universities,” Luna said.
“We want to be first to the party.” UNL will be the first of the Big Ten schools bordering Nebraska to switch to a monthly magazine. Although the newspaper format will be remembered fondly, The Daily Nebraskan looks to usher in a new era of innovation in a digital world. NEWS@THEDAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
FIRST ISSUE: FROM PAGE 3 priority for the writers and editors. Aidan Connolly, the future editor-in-chief of The Daily Nebraskan, said that they still strive for constant improvement despite challenges. “I think it is always a goal to improve,” Connolly said. “We enjoy receiving feedback from people and trying new things as the culture changes but it’s not the easiest thing to do.While we always strive to improve and become better, it might not always seem like it
because those changes can be internal and we do a lot of things that people wouldn’t see on a day-to-day basis.” With the new magazine format, Connolly said what began in 1901 will just continue to build. “It will be a completely different format of printing as it will be in all color, glossy pages, and it will only print once a month,” Connolly said. “The content will be different, we’ll have
longer stories and more creative layouts.” Connolly said that The Daily Nebraskan format will change as the industry changes and print issues like ones published in 1901 won’t be available anymore. “In the future, it’s still possible that we could go without a print issue and The DN would just function online,” he said. “There are so many new things to do online that it would still be a cool opportunity.”
Connolly said he’s hopeful that students will be receptive to the changes in The Daily Nebraskan. “I only hope we’ll go up from here,” Connolly said. “I see The DN continuing to be a presence on campus.” NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM

DN alums reflect on print experiences Mia Everding dn staff writer
As The Daily Nebraskan prints its final newspaper, editors who served at the helm of the student newspaper and in journalism jobs beyond are reflecting on the impact of their time on staff. To them, it is a reminder that the changing world of media affects organizations big and small, and is a shift that dates back years, even decades. Jane Hirt, a former reporter, copy editor and managing editor of The Daily Nebraskan from 1986 to 1989, said her work at the newspaper was where she got to put classroom learning to practice. “Throughout my career, I’ve thought back to skills I learned at The DN,” Hirt said. She said The DN persuaded her to choose journalism as a career that included working at the Chicago Tribune for 25 years
as a copy editor, copy desk chief, national/ foreign news editor and finally managing editor from 2008 to 2014. It’s a career that has seen changes in the newspaper industry that have both grown and complicated the reality of a daily newspaper. Hirt said that while the field of journalism is changing, this may not necessarily a bad thing. “Print will last as long as people are willing to pay for it,” she said. “Print is dwindling, but the audience is exploding.” With international and national newspapers available online, Hirt said online readers are increasing in number. She also said newspapers like The Daily Nebraskan have to adjust print format in order to match students’ demand. “I remember putting out newspapers [at The DN] every night,” Hirt said. “But now [The DN] puts out news on social media platforms.” Hirt said that doesn’t change the duty or message of The Daily Nebraskan, only its delivery system. The obligation, and fun, of being at the center of everything at UNL should always be a goal. She remembered one time, she said, the vice chancellor of Student Affairs came down to the office, asking to talk with an editor. The vice chancellor said there was a measles outbreak on campus. “The editor turned to him and said, ‘Oh yeah, we already knew that,’” Hirt said. By being so plugged in on happenings on campus, Hirt said she was really shown what journalism could be. Dionne Searcey, a 1993 graduate, was a staff reporter, opinion editor, supplement reporter and senior reporter during her time at The Daily Nebraskan. She said she covered a variety of topics as a writer, including the murder of UNL student Candi Harms and the consequent trial of the killer. Searcey also covered the “drudgery” of a bureaucratic beat. Searcey said how important it was that The Daily Nebraskan was independent of the journalism school, as sitting in the classroom was so different from actually creating stories. For example, in class Searcey said professors can watch over students’ shoulders to make sure everything is perfect. However, at The Daily Nebraskan, she said it was good to make mistakes and be held accountable for them. “There’s no to blame for your mistakes except for you,” Searcey said.
“Print is dwindling, but the audience is exploding.”

As for the changes coming to The Daily Nebraskan, Searcey said she is a huge fan of print and is always sad to see the end of any print publications. However, she said The New York Times, where Searcey works, is struggling with the same problem of decreasing print readership. Searcey said that while she is sad about
the changing print format The Daily Nebraskan will take, she thinks it is an opportunity for the staff to pick and choose the most important projects to print in the monthly magazine. NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN

Student voices on DN shift to magazine Elsie Stormberg dn staff writer
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s student-run newspaper The Daily Nebraskan is changing the format of its paper. Once a daily broadsheet newspaper, now a twice-a-week tabloid-style copy, the publication will print in the 2017-2018 school year as a monthly newsmagazinestyle paper. The Daily Nebraskan asked students their thoughts on the alterations and how it will benefit the future of the paper. NEWS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
“I think it’s a good change. Honestly, I do see a lot of the papers around and I’ve picked up and read a few of them but I think having it be a monthly thing, the quality will go up.”
“I feel like it might be a good idea because you’ll get more content in a month rather than two times a week, so I feel like if you put one out once a month it will have deeper stories in it.”

“I’m personally not disappointed because I didn’t read it. But for journalists and people that are trying to get started in that line of work, I think it’s a bummer because I think it’s good to have as many ways to write as they can.”
“As someone who did journalism in high school, I really enjoy reading The Daily Nebraskan and I like reading the newspaper format. I’m a little disappointed but I see their reasoning in why they’re switching and I think Daily Nebraskan people are trying to keep up with modern times and keep up with what readers want.”

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Through highs and lows, DN withstood test of time “Let us determine to make a paper of which we feel proud,” read the first article on page two of the first issue of The Hesperian Student, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s very first student newspaper. The article, titled “Our Paper,” was written by W.L. Sweet and his team of editors, who would kickstart a student newspaper tradition which would document UNL’s history and its students’ perspectives on the world for 145 years.
1872
The Hesperian was first published as a monthly paper in February 1872 and featured local news as well as original literature and editorials on 19th century living. Writers (who were often uncredited) often pondered the importance of education in the world they lived in. Often times the general consensus about education was it was to be used as a tool used to elevate one’s place in life. “It is a worthy act for a man to rise in his sphere, but when he attempts to rise out of it he becomes ridiculous,” wrote one author. “Education has the general result of making him capable of estimating his own ability, teaching him how to live, and how to be useful as a citizen.”
1917
1901 Eventually The Hesperian and The Nebraskan would combine into one newspaper, The Daily Nebraskan, with its first issue printed on June 13, 1901. During its first years, the paper was edited by six individuals while eight reporters wrote the entirety of the daily newspaper. Each issue cost 3 cents per copy. For much of The Daily Nebraskan’s early years, the front page was reserved for Nebraska football game notes and detailed descriptions during the fall semester. The debate club saw its fair share of coverage, but most of the newspaper was made up of ad space.
1917 proved to be a pivotal year for The Daily Nebraskan, beginning in January when Eva Miller was selected to be the first female editor-in-chief of the paper. At the time, Miller was the only female college newspaper editor in the country, according to Dan Shattil, current general manager of The Daily Nebraskan. That same year, the United States entered World War I in April after German submarines continued to attack American ships unprovoked. On April 17, 1917, the paper published an editorial stating it would not publish stories critical of the war and would focus on stories dedicated to preparing students for the war.
19 17
1932 During the middle of the 1932 presidential election, Daily Nebraskan reporter Mary Quigley was granted an interview with presidential candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt. Though the interview was constantly interrupted by other local politicians, Roosevelt wished “a good luck” to the students at UNL.
1892
1914-1915
1918
1933
1892 also marked the beginning of The Nebraskan, a rival student newspaper established by Frank Riley, who coined the paper’s nickname “the rag” in 1894. Students at the time referred to Riley as “Rag Riley” and The Nebraskan as “The Rag.” Students would continue to call the paper by this nickname almost all the way through the 20th century.
When World War I broke out in 1914 and continued into 1915, The Daily Nebraskan featured numerous articles about the war in Europe. Often times professors wrote editorials either denouncing or actively encouraging the United States to enter the war in Europe. Other professors such as H.B. Alexander, a former professor of philosophy, pondered the purpose of war and how it would affect the generations moving forward. This all occurred despite then-President Woodrow Wilson’s public urges for Americans to remain neutral.
In October 1918, the United States government ordered The Daily Nebraskan to be taken over by Capt. Edmund J. MacIvor, who would have complete management control over the paper’s operation. MacIvor ordered the paper to act as a bulletin for the Student Army Training Corps, a precursor to UNL’s Reserve Officers’ Training Corps program. All students in the SATC were required to subscribe to The Daily Nebraskan. The very next issue featured a front page profile about MacIvor titled “Nebraska’s War Leader.”
The paper felt the effects of the Great Depression in 1932 and had to switch from a broadsheet newspaper format to a tabloid style. Due to budget cuts, the staff was reduced and wages were cut by 10 percent. The student council proposed an activity tax on every student to be paid with at the same time as their annual university fees payments. The paper wrote an editorial in favor of this approach as it would drastically reduce the cost of student-funded activities and allow many student organizations to be completely independent.
That same year the influenza pandemic forced then-Nebraska Gov. Keith Neville to enforce a citywide quarantine for two weeks. All classes and activities at UNL were cancelled, but The Daily Nebraskan continued publishing.
The activity tax was heavily favored in a referendum by a two to one margin in 1933.
1892 Famed Nebraska author Willa Cather found her beginnings as an editor for the literary section of The Hesperian in 1892. Cather would become the newspaper’s managing editor the very next year and would stay on until she graduated in 1895.

1936 An April 29, 1936 issue of the newspaper featured on The Daily Nebraskan earliest acts of rebellion against the university. The paper featured several editorials over the course of the previous year teasing the idea of paying student athletes. The student body had planned a forum on “subsidization of athletes” until the student council postponed it indefinitely, saying they were unable to get a qualified speaker for the forum. Possibly feeling frustrated at perceived incompetence in the student council, The Daily Nebraskan management decided to run a blank editorial column. In its place was a sarcastic funeral notice for the “death” of the student forum. The paper listed several key members of the student council as the forum’s pallbearers. The memorial’s speakers were labeled “faculty witches -- scaring poor students into becoming ‘Yes-Men.’”
Because of the United States’ involvement in the war, less students were enrolling, and The Daily Nebraskan saw a staff shortage in 1943. Because of this, the newspaper was only printed three times a week and saw a mostly female staff.
The Association of Students of the University of Nebraska proposes legislature which would allow alcohol in the dorms.

It fails in 1973 after the Regents strike it down and the Residence Hall Association calls the proposal “grossly unjustified.”

In 1952, a history professor was investigated by the committee for using a textbook titled “The State of Asia,” which the Nebraska Legion’s UnAmerican Activities Committee investigated after anonymous students reported the professor for pushing communist literature. The Daily Nebraskan ran editorials denouncing this and interviewed students in the class. One editorial asked the questions “Are we free to think? Are we free to read? Are we free to have our own opinions? Are we free to examine, to analyze and then to choose what we find to be right?”

1940 In the spring of 1940, The Daily Nebraskan started its own radio show on the KFOR radio station. Eight Daily Nebraskan staffers passed an audition to broadcast campus news on The Daily Nebraskan radio program. The Daily Nebraskan also began posting daily news bulletins about World War II in 1940.
1964 The Daily Nebraskan endorses Barry Goldwater for president, a controversial decision and a rare example of the paper endorsing a candidate.
1992 The Daily Nebraskan published a front-page story and photo of football player Scott Baldwin being hogtied naked by Lincoln policemen. The story was met with mixed to negative reactions, accusations of racism. Then-editorin-chief Jana Petersen said she faced death threats and several football players showed up at her office after the story ran. Longtime Nebraska football coach Tom Osborne also spoke publicly about the decision to run the photo, saying it lacked sensitivity.

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
General manager finds home at DN David Stover dn staff writer
In the basement of the University of Nebraska Student Union, Dan Shattil has never felt too far from home. From his son Matthew to his wife Emily, Dan’s enjoyed lunches and visits with his immediate family over his 34-year career at The Daily Nebraskan. But in the time he’s seen students pass through the doors of The DN in the basement of the Nebraska Union as eager writers, stay on as editors and leave for jobs in the journalism field and beyond, he’s also built a legacy. Shattil, The Daily Nebraskan’s general manager, has been one major reason behind the newspaper’s success over the years despite its recent dip in print readership from approximately 93 to 14 percent. Before Shattil’s arrival, the newspaper was without a general manager and did not have computers but manual typewriters. “Reporters wrote the stories, and they had to triple space on paper,” Shattil said. “All the pages were rubber cemented together, and the section editors and copy editors would edit in between the lines.” Shattil’s first action was to implement new forms of technology into the workplace. He met with The Daily Nebraskan Publications Board and presented it with a funding proposal for new computers. His proposal was denied in 1983 because the Publications Board, Shatill said, was concerned the computers would be too intimidating for the staff. “Computers were still novelty in the newspaper business,” he said. The Publications Board allocated Shattil funds for 10 new electronic typewriters. But new typewriters could not triple space, only single or double space, which posed problems. Shattil eventually upgraded the newsroom with eight new typewriters that had memory, which allowed them to save text. But he remained persistent. Three years later he allocated the funds to purchase the newsroom IBM PCs. Shattil said the state-of-the-art PCs for designers were Macintoshes. As a result, Daily Nebraskan designers used the program PageMaker on their PCs to design the configuration of the print editions. “We were one of the first newspapers to
do design work on PCs as opposed to Macs,” Shattil said. The Daily Nebraskan was a test model for IBM because most newspapers at the time were using Macs, and as a result, IBM publicized what The Daily Nebraskan was doing to encourage other newspapers to follow suit. Macs and IBM PCs programs were different and could not cross functionally to synthesize the information for the respective programs. The Daily Nebraskan’s loyalty to IBM resulted in free technical support. With the increased consumption of the internet in the late ‘90s, The Daily Nebraskan became the first newspaper in the state to produce online content. “[Shattil] was one of those people who wasn’t resistant to change,” former Daily Nebraskan editor in chief Chris Heady said. “If anything, he wanted more of it all the time.” Since The Daily Nebraskan’s beginning it was printed every weekday, but transitioned to three days a week during the Great Depression. After it ended, The Daily Nebraskan transitioned back to print five days a week until three years ago. Former editor in chief Jacy Marmaduke and The Daily Nebraskan Publications Board elected to print its publication on Mondays and Thursdays. “I think it had been a long time coming because print advertising was declining,” Marmaduke said. “It felt like a waste of time for something that did not have a super high readership and was not making as much advertising money as it used to.” The Daily Nebraskan’s decision to go away from print was made in conjunction with complaints regarding low print advertising revenue and professors’ complaints regarding leftover newspapers being left behind by students in classrooms. Shattil said leftover newspapers are no longer a problem because students have transitioned to reading the newspaper on their electronic devices. When The Daily Nebraskan transitioned from printing five days a week to two days a week, Marmaduke and Shattil would meet every Monday to discuss the newspaper’s performance. “There is a reason we’ve never lost a student election to my knowledge,” Marmaduke said. “I think a lot of that is because of Dan
“[Shattil] was one of those people who wasn’t resistant to change.”

OPINION
THURSDAY, APRIL 27, 2017 DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
Editor’s note: As part of our final print issue in our traditional format, we dug into our archives and found this staff editorial from November 6th, 1980 following the election of Ronald Reagan as president which you’ll find to the left. To the right, you’ll find a column from November 10th, 2016 as a reaction to the election of Donald Trump. The two columns each reflect the opinions of University of Nebraska-Lincoln students following the electoral victories of two Republican candidates and thus present an interesting compare/contrast opportunity. We hope you enjoy the reading.
1980: Voters endorse consumption Editor’s note: Parts of the following editorial are based on a June 26, 1980 Summer Nebraskan column, originally written by the current Daily Nebraskan editor. Ronald Reagan’s Tuesday victory presents no new challenges for America during the next four years. The challenges already are there, and Reagan and the Republican Senate must deal with them. If a democracy always is right when it makes its majority decisions, we were wrong in our liberal views, at least concerning the presidential race. But this newspaper seriously questions if the values we have tried to convey really are the wrong ones. The country definitely wanted conservatism. Whether that was the right choice, and whether that desire is in our long-term interest won’t be revealed for several years. This country’s turn toward right-wing hawkishness developed rapidly after the seizure of hostages in Iran and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. It manifested itself as early as the primaries, when California’s 43rd congressional district made its Democratic nominee Tom Metzger, California Grand Dragon of the Ku Klux Klan. Harold Covington, the leader of the U.S. Nazi Party, won 43 percent of the Republican primary vote for attorney general of North Carolina. Now we’re going to make America great again. The evident view is that building every nuclear and conventional weapon we can dream up will make us great… again. It is overly simplistic to believe that changes in international affairs since World War II were caused by a lack of American military strength, or that increasing that strength will make the world the way it was, or the way we’d like it to be. Domestically, social justice and all those other noble-sounding goals found in our constitution are not the current goals of the majority. The majority is much more concerned with making payments on two cars, getting loans for home improvements, eating affordable steak every night and being
able to get credit cards. No, no, America need not conserve. We can go on overconsuming until there’s nothing left to consume, and if we’ve got enough guns, nobody will stop us while we’re at it. And if we have to take it away from someone else, that’s their problem for not having the weapons to stop us. After all, we’re the chosen people. God has blessed us; it says so on our coins, and Ronald Reagan says so, so it must be true. Oh yes, we are moral. That’s why the gap between the rich and the poor in the world has more than doubled since we began our wonderful, altruistic overseas investment schemes. That’s why bellies bloat all across the Third World while some Americans make money on an industry dedicated to taking fat off Americans. We’re moral because millionaires can give $1,000 to CARE and pretend they’ve done their part. What exactly did we do to deserve our grand life style? Well, we conquered the Indians and imported blacks to pick cotton for the shirts on our backs. We used the only atomic weapons ever used against a population and 25 years later napalmed unarmed, illiterate Asians. It’s easy to see why we deserve this lifestyle. But most of all, we believe in majority rule. If we really believe in majority rule and the equality of all men and women, we should be very afraid, because 70 percent of the world has only 30 percent of the wealth. They are the majority, and they don’t like us. Ronald Reagan said this spring in Grand Island “It’s time that the United States let the world know that we don’t care whether they like us or not; we’re going to be respected.” They’ve never liked us, and they can’t possibly respect us. That’s what we deserve. They are afraid of us. That’s what America has decided it wants to reinforce.
2016: Trump represents the closing of America Greg Tracey dn staff columnist
This was not an election about the Supreme Court. This was an election between open and closed. This election, ultimately, was not about making America great again but about the repudiation of everything that made America great to begin with. In 1997, Tony Blair had a vision. A couple years earlier he had become the leader of the Labour Party in the United Kingdom. He ran on a platform formed around the idea of “third-way economics.” [a1] A similar movement began in the United States under Bill Clinton and continued with George W. Bush’s brand of compassionate conservatism. This line of thinking endorsed classical liberal policies, espoused by storied economists such as Adam Smith and David Ricardo, such as free trade and free markets. Yet, it provides a safety net for those who “lose” with globalism. This year both major political parties failed by going against free trade, which is what drove America’s economic growth to begin with. Comparative advantage brought us to heights unheard of and unsurpassed in human history. The sky was the limit. Now, we plan to drop out of free trade agreements and enter trade wars with countries like China and Mexico. Thus lies the path to ruin, not prosperity Mr. Trump may be the obvious one to blame, yet he is not the only one. Both he and Bernie Sanders played on the fears of factory workers in the Rust Belt. Fears that they would lose everything they had. Fears that they were being left behind. [a2] Fears that were exploited for political gain. Trump may become president, but he cannot give workers their jobs back magically. Anyone can give a man a shovel and pay him to dig holes, but such an existence is arbitrary and meaningless. It was up to the moderates to step up and rebuke Mr. Trump and Mr. Sanders in their folly. John Kasich and Jeb Bush did
their best, but ultimately failed. Hillary Clinton rolled over and adopted Sanders’ most radical, ill-conceived proposals. The stage was set for a contest between anti-trade, anti-growth candidates. Not only would they close the country to trade, they would close it to people as well. “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” became, “They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with them.” Besides being a fundamental part of who we are as Americans, accepting immigrants is essential to any country, both as a source of new ideas and for replenishing the workforce. But this is nativism—2016 version—and to hell with reason. The picture looks bleak moving forward. Now that he’s won, Trump and his supporters have the GOP in their grip for at least four years. No matter what people say about her, Clinton is a moderate-to-conservative Democrat. Her loss leaves the field wide open for Sanders or Elizabeth Warren to seize power in the Democratic Party and drag it further to the left. Further from free trade. Further from prosperity. Given the sorry state of things, a new alternative must be formed. No doubt you will say third parties will never work. People tell us that we must learn to live with a two-party system, no matter how jaded it is. However, the time has never been riper for a third party to seize the moment. Past third party movements have been either fringe efforts, such as the Libertarian or Green Parties, or a rich candidate like Ross Perot. The one cannot gain momentum and the other cannot sustain anything. That is not the situation this time. Prominent conservatives like John Kasich, Mitt Romney, and Ben Sasse who refused to get on the so-called Trump Train of hate and intolerance must muster the political will to create a new party. They could ex-

THE DAILY NEBRASKAN
Bands you saw in DN before in concert Ben Buchnat assistant arts & entertainment editor
The Daily Nebraskan A&E staff has talked to a lot of bands and music acts over the years. Back when the paper printed every day, the staff would talk to countless bands, most not making it past local or regional markets. Bands are still covered in The DN today but not in the capacity and frequency they were in the daily newspaper. In honor of this last print edition as a newspaper, let’s take a look back at bands you heard first about from the DN.
Maroon 5 Then: When DN staff writer Tessa Jeffers talked to former University of Nebraska-Lincoln student James Valentine about his new band in October 2003, Maroon 5 was on the verge of breaking out. Their first record, “Songs About Jane,” was close to going gold and the album’s first single, “Harder To Breathe,” was getting solid radio play. Valentine, who was only one semester away from a degree in advertising at UNL before moving to Los Angeles in 2001, had been on the road for more than a year backing “Songs About Jane.” Up to that point, Maroon 5 had been opening for acts such as John Mayer, the Counting Crows and Sheryl Crow. But in the year of touring, Maroon 5 hadn’t played Valentine’s home state of Nebraska due to the venue the Music Box closing. “I’ve been kicking and screaming to get a Nebraska show,” Valentine said in the original interview. “I’d love to come play in my hometown.” They were starting to gain critical acclaim and radio play when The DN talked to Valentine, but they hadn’t quite hit the mainstream yet. Now: Maroon 5 is one of the biggest bands in the world with five platinum albums and seven platinum singles, according to the RIAA. Less than a month after the interview ran in the DN, “Harder to Breathe” peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 18 in November 2003. The band then released “This Love” as a single in January 2004. That song became
the band’s first top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number five in April of the same year. Since “This Love” peaked in the top 10, Maroon 5 has had 11 more top 10 singles. With songs off later albums like “Makes Me Wonder,” “Moves Like Jagger” and “One More Night” all hitting number one. Maroon 5’s last album “V” was released in 2014, but the band has an album slated for release this year. The forthcoming record has two singles, “Don’t Wanna Know” featuring Kendrick Lamar and “Cold” featuring Future. The band last played Lincoln in October 2016 at Pinnacle Bank Arena, while James Valentine recently returned to his hometown to play with the Nebraska Jazz Orchestra at the Lied Center earlier this month.
Arcade Fire Then: Arcade Fire, or “The Arcade Fire” as The DN’s Billy Defrain called them, had just released their debut album “Funeral” in September 2004, two months before the DN caught them at a November show in Omaha. The group was just starting to get media attention, which was odd for lead singer Win Butler. “Having the media mediate a relationship between us and the audience is strange, but I’m getting used to it,” Butler said at the time. Arcade Fire was also first starting to deal with the competitive nature of the music industry, something which Butler described as “crap.” While not having huge sales numbers, “Funeral” was doing very well critically in its early months. Pitchfork had just given the record a 9.2 out of 10 and other outlets like AllMusic and Drowned In Sound also gave it positive reviews at the time. Now: “Funeral” kept growing through positive word of mouth, and the band’s next album, 2007’s “Neon Bible,” peaked at number two on the Billboard Top 200 album chart. However, the band’s biggest moment came in 2011, when their 2010 album “The Suburbs” won the Grammy for Album of the Year over Eminem, Lady Gaga and Katy Perry. Arcade Fire last released an album in 2013, with “Reflektor.” The band hasn’t been back to Nebraska since that 2004 show, but keyboard player and
file photo | dn multi-instrumentalist Will Butler played a solo show in Omaha in 2015. The band is rumored to be releasing their next record this year.
Bright Eyes Then: While Bright Eyes had been around for a few years before The DN’s Jeff Randall talked to frontman Conor Oberst in March 1999, the project had yet to make a ton of noise outside of Nebraska. Oberst was only 18 and a freshman at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. His first band Commander Venus, featuring members of Cursive and The Faint, had broken up two years earlier. At this point in 1999, Bright Eyes had only two albums, “A Collection of Songs Written and Recorded 1995-1997” and “Letting Off The Happiness.” But Oberst already knew how the music business works, and he wasn’t a fan of its state in 1999. “I try to avoid it as much as possible.” Oberst said. Oberst wasn’t trying to make money or get famous. His main motivation was simple, to
make an album he was proud of, according to the interview. Now: Bright Eyes broke through three years later with 2002’s “Lifted,” which gave the band their first national television performance on the “Late Show with David Letterman” and spots on best-of lists in publications like Rolling Stone. The group hit a commercial peak with 2005’s “I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning” and 2007’s “Cassadaga.” “I’m Wide Awake, It’s Morning” and one of its singles, “First Day of My Life,” would eventually go gold in the U.S. Bright Eyes last released an album in 2011 and has been on hiatus since. However, frontman Conor Oberst has been releasing music regularly, with his last album being this year’s “Salutations.” Looking forward to the continued focus on online and the new magazine format of The Daily Nebraskan, perhaps one of the bands The DN covers will garner just as much fame as Maroon 5 or Arcade Fire. You’ll just have to keep reading to find out. ARTS@DAILYNEBRASKAN.COM
2016: FROM PAGE 11 pand the current Libertarian or Constitutional Parties, or make a totally new party. Funding will not be an issue. Many notable Republican donors refused to back Trump and would be willing to fund a third party. We have a unique opportunity to create something new. Free
trade, liberal immigration, compassionate care for those who are hurt by globalization— there’s nothing we can’t achieve if we act now. And who knows? Maybe this will all turn out to be unnecessary. Maybe Donald Trump will flip-flop—after all, he’s done that
a few times. Maybe Paul Ryan will rein him in and all will be well in America. But I’ve been optimistic to no avail for too long. My Republican Party died the day Donald Trump won the nomination. We need to make America a beacon of hope again. It’s
time to act before any more time is lost and #MakeAmericaSaneAgain. GREG TRACEY IS A FRESHMAN GLOBAL STUDIES MAJOR. REACH HIM AT OPINION@DAILYNEBRASKAN. COM OR VIA @DNOPINION.
