In a letter from Richard Hill of the sociology department the committee expressed its “deep concerns” about the plans to reorganize the Student Educational Programs minority projects. The committee stated that they felt a “critical need to include minority persons in the planning cf programs designed to increase their educational opportunities.” The committee reported that the sociology department objected to the proposed plan for three reasons: — that the proposal did not involve joint planning, — too much money is allocated to the administrative component and, — the program is insufficent to meet the needs of minority students. The committee urged Clark to return the proposal the Faculty Education Opportunity Committee so that “current objectives of minority students and program staff” can be met. Marshall-Fitzpatrick ticket fined $50 Doug Marshall and Cathy Fitzpatrick, former ASUO presidential and vice presidential candidates, were fined $50 by the elections court for exceeding the allowable campaign ex penditures as shown by their report and for undervaluing a performance by the band “Coal.” Marshall-Fitzpatrick, through counsel Dave Gwyther filed a “no loco contenda" (sic, nolo contendere) plea to all elections law violations. This means that Marshall-Fitzpatrick will not contest the charges. The case was heard by court official Fred Kowolowski who levied the fine and also ruled “that if the defendants do wish to contest the judgement or the authority of the court they may do so by filing a written objection with the elections court (i.e., on or before May 15, 1973), in which case the judgement will be withdrawn and all complaints may be presented in their en tirety.” Chicanos to meet to decide EOS position Chicanos on campus will meet Monday to discuss which position they will take in dealing with the newly formed Educational Op portunities Services (EOS). According to Alfonso Cabrera, chairman of MEChA, “Our students feel strongly that they will not participate in EOS. We will not be put into a situation of compromise on their (EOS) grounds and their rules.’’ Cabrera cited three alternatives the Chicanos will choose from on Monday: —“to keep SESAMEX as it is, with the provision that Chicanos from Project Continuation and Project Life merge with SESAMEX.” —“to move all Chicanos out of campus and to not participate with any of the new structure; and to inform all Chicanos not to apply for any position under the new structure.” —“to move off campus and to create our own educational center and not be under the corruption and melt function of the University’s little ‘Watergate’ incident.” Cabrera stated that if position two is chosen any Chicano par taking in the new structure would “only be a minority and not a representation of the majority of Chicano6 on campus.” In a recent letter sent to John Sherwood, chairman of the Educational Opportunities Commission, Rafella Belcher, director of Project Life, Felipe Canedo, director of SESAMEX, and Cabrera stated they were in agreement that SESAMEX should be continued and funded as it is. They also agreed “that the present Project Life students be in corporated into the as-yet-undetermined center of SESAMEX or whatever it may be called. “It is also understood,” the letter continued, “that organizationally the structure will continue to advocate, recruit, and do academic as well as personal advising, and all functions directly related to our Mexican population.” SELL <YOU^ tfye ^Emefaldy
