Geitner Simmons, editorial page editor of the Omaha World-Herald, praises the University of
Nebraska Press in a June 19 column titled “Beacon of Knowledge.” An excerpt follows:

"Year after year, the University of Nebraska Press continues its impressive work
to inform and enliven cultural and intellectual life not just in Nebraska but also nationwide. Nebraskans should be aware that theirs is one of the largest university presses in the nation and a respected leader in its field. . . . The University of Nebraska Press deserves credit for keeping classic works in print. . . . 
Since Omaha is hosting the College World Series, it is an appropriate occasion to note that one of the University of Nebraska Press specialties is the publication of sports
books, with a particular focus on baseball. . . . The
University of Nebraska Press deserves plaudits for its expansion into new areas of study. . . . Nebraskans can take pride in the impressive intellectual
contributions being made by the University of Nebraska Press."
