Editorial Note:This is a partial transcription of the Board of Regents minutes. It highlights only the relevant material, which is that concerning the protest against Steve Hokuf's suspension and the vote on whether to reinstate him.
Editorial Note:This article provides explanation of the raid from Wimberly's point of view. He noted that he and Eliason were discussing a course of action when the raid occurred. Also, Wimberly and Eliason were the only chaperones who actually showed up at the party, perhaps leaving them with more responsibility than they should have had.
Editorial Note:Note that the article says the raiding officers "broke in" during the raid. This differs from other accounts. It also mentions, like almost all other articles, that the instructors are not accused.
This article was printed before the six students involved in the Beer Apartment raid were actually suspended. Note that authorities say that Hokuf has no connection to the case as far as they are concerned. Also note the high level of interest in this case from fraternity officials and state legislators.
This article details how important Hokuf was to the residents of Crete. It also states that Hokuf was suspended simply because he was a tenant of the "Beer Apartment."
Editorial Note:This is another article about the hearing concerning the charges brought against the five students arrested in the Beer Apartment raid. Note that Judge Maggi regrets the publicity of the case, something that the Daily Nebraskan is upset with as well.
Editorial Note:This article came one day after Steve Hokuf was told that he was not implicated in the Beer Apartment Raid. Apparently the questioning sessions with Dean Thompson resulted in a confession, or Hokuf was simply suspended because he was one of the apartment's renters.
