The Student Union and Edu
cational Activities (SU EdAc)
Budget Board Sunday tentatively
cut one budget—forensics— $2,200,
held a long discussion on the
merits of proposed ASUO pro
grams, and planned another long
session for this morning as part
of the process of balancing its
budget.
The Budget Board governs
budgets for the operation of the
Student Union, ASUO Board,
Publications Hoard, and other
smaller programs. Its money
comes from the operation of the
building, profits from programs,
and student fees. It is advisory
to University President Arthur
S. Flemming.
This is the problem the Budg
et Board faces:
It has, from fees and profits
from SU operation $08,733 to
use for programs. It also has
about $10,000 in extra profit
from this year’s SU operation,
for a total of $108,733. But the
requests for programs total $148,

that he took exception to this
with the Viet Nam issue. He said
that the situation had become so
crucial to the students and af
fected them so vitally that stu
dent government should respond
to the wishes of the students.
When the question of the Uni
versity membership in NSA came
up, opinions divided again Gragg
stated NSA was "undemocratic
and unrepresentative.” He main
tained it was against the Greek
system.
Empey, Hammond and Miss
Knupp challenged Gragg's stand
by. strongly supporting NSA. Em
pey cited it was beneficial, built
interested, and initiated important
programs Miss Knupp agreed and
cited the example of the pov
erty conference as an idea that
sprang from the NSA. Hammonds
stated it provided a "forum to
get leaders together.”
The program closed with Ham
mond urging every student to
vote Wednesday. Four more Sen
ate candidates will be interview

CO-OP BOARD
JUNIOR POSITION
In other words, somewhere the
Budget Board must cut $40,150
out of programs.
The budget was about $3,100
higher than that but the Bally
Board’s budget will now fall un
der the athletic department.
The cut in the forensics budg
et was aimed primarily at $1,
500 for symposiums. The motion
made by ASUO President Steve
Goldschmidt, recommended to
President Flemming that this
program be financed out of the
general University budget.
Under the symposium program
students travel around the state
discussing various topics before
high school and service club au
diences. Several budget board
members indicated they felt that
this program was worthwhile but
legitimately belonged in the gen
eral University budget.
The other $700 was cut on a
motion by Gene Sokolski. Sokol
ski suggested that the debate
team might cut out two of their
California trips. There are pres
ently four trips planned.
The Board also discussed cut
ting the music department's budg
et for new programs, recommend
ing that some of these expenses,
such as teaching assistants for a
planned glee club, might be tak
en out of the general University
budget.
They did not make a decision
on the music budget but Bob Colt
man planned to contact Dean
Robert Trotter before the next
meeting.
Most of the discussion, how
ever, revolved around the ASUO
budget, although no decisions
were made on it.
ASUO has asked for a $31,874
subsidy this year, compared to
$9,30(1 last year.

To further the trend for more
involvement, he favors holding
Senate meetings in dorms and
houses. For off-campus students
the senate should arrange for
central off-campus meeting places
and meet with them, he said. He
favors the publication of a Sen
ate newsletter to reach all the
students.
Kingslien supports the Univer
sity's participation in NSA be
cause of the benefits he says the
students aren't informed about.
Some of these benefits include the
following: the ability of our Sen

other member schools on pro

William C. Jones, dean of ad
ministration and chairman of the
Budget Board, noted that the
four student members were all
ASUO officers (three senators and
Goldschmidt), fie said he plann
ed therefore to raise questions
about the ASUO budget which
he did not feel would be raised
otherwise.
"I wonder if the students would
be willing to spend this much
money on the ASUO,” Jones said.
“I would raise the question of
whether the best of this cam
pus are served by spending this
much money.”
Speaking slowly, carefully,
Jones said he was "impressed by

I DC Endorses NSA
Inter-Dorm Council unanimous
ly approved a motion Monday
night to endorse continued ASUO
affiliation with the National Stu
dent's Association. Passage of the
motion followed a defense and
clarification of NSA organization
and activity by Steve Goldschmidt,
ASUO president, and Tom Clark,
ASUO vice-president.
Democrat to Speak

candidate for the nomination for
Congress from the Fourth district
will speak to members of the
Sierra Club and other interested
individuals on the topic of con
servation issues at 12 noon today
in the Student Union.
the fantastic Jack of interest on
this campus in student govern
ment. The reason seems to be
that there isn’t very much for
the student government to do on
this campus. Despite all the fuss
and furor I don’t think the stu
dent government really has very
much to scrap with the faculty
about.”
Therefore, Jones said, he would
"have to vote against most of
the requests the ASUO has made.”
He objected to three specific
requests in the budget: salaries,
$10,000 for a speaker program,
and $5,000 for two research as
sistants. Goldschmidt asked for
$12,494 in salaries, compared to
$1,834 last year. This includes
$1,355 apiece for ASUO presi
dent and vice president and the
addition of a full-time civil serv
ice secretary.
Jones said he objected to the
salaries because "I don’t think
students ought to make a full
time job out of being president

fore he takes a stand on any
issue. He also said that the Sen
ate shouldn’t involve itself with
od-campus issues.
Pruitt contends that the Senate
should take stands on off-campus
issues because students are in
volved not only in University life
but in the life of the entire com
munity. “For myself,” he con
tinued, "I can't draw a line saying
this is where the campus ends and
the world begins."
He added that he didn't know
exactly which students it is his
duty as a senator-at-large to rep
resent—the 1,200 student who
actually voted for him or the en
tire student body.
He added that when students
voted for him. they were aware
of his philosophy and views about
the responsibilities of student
l leaders. He said he viewed each
| vote for him as an endorsement
I of his political philosophy.
He said that if students don’t
[like the Senate or the composi
tion of the Senate, they have only
themselves to blame. "You elected
the people on the Senate,” he
said.
Taylor emphasized that all the
work on Pruitt’s proposal was

Goldschmidt replied that this
did not make the two offices a
full lime job, that it instead
would merely pay students what
it cost them to go to school while
in office. Goldschmidt said that
unless salaries for student lead
ers are raised, students are be
ing barred from these positions
because of a lack of Financial re
sources.
