ASUO programs this year, includ

cacy (OSA) and the Survival
Center, offered their goals for dis

budget hearing.

The OSA asked that its five divi
sions be continued next year.
Those five areas are. the
director's office and legal ser
vices, student defender, legal re
search, research and develop
ment and retainer divisions.
Janet Gillaspie, Survival Center
director, proposed four goals for
consideration, including improv
ing environmental education op
portunities at the University, in
creasing political awareness con
cerning environmental issues, ef
fectively organizing environmen
tal information resources and
operating the office in a more effi
cient manner.
The first goal was easily ac
cepted, 6-0. An “ideological prob
lem,” according to IFC Chairer
Doug Benson, arose concerning
the second objective, increasing
political awareness.

Benson feared that through
funding the IFC would be endors
ing certain political issues. He in
dicated funding political involve
ment for various programs would
be recurring throughout the hear
ings and feared setting a danger
ous precedent. The vote was 5-1,
with Benson dissenting.
The last two goals were quickly
and unanimously passed.
The political support issue also
came up in discussion of the Off
Campus Housing Office’s goals.
The objective of implementing a
legislative lobbying effort for
housing-related issues, however,
passed 6-0. Benson questioned
whether student students should
be paying for a benefit derived by
the entire community.
Efficient office management,
community and campus educa
tion and a landlord/tenant com
OSA, five others approved
plaint system were passed as ac
ceptable goals for Off-Campus
Housing, 6-0. The vote was 5-1 for
a goal to research issus to relieve
lanlord/tenant problemms. Janet
Eggleston dissented.
All Music Steering Committee
objectives were passed unanim
ously. Committee member Ray
Morse presented four goals: offer
ing guest artists, providing public
ity for those artists, partially spon
soring a chamber music series
and partially funding an opdta
workshop class.
Committee members argued
that artists brought in would not be
duplications of possible Cultural
Forum performers. Jeff Warren
warned against too much centrali
zation of activities in support of the
measue.
There was some question
about funding part of a class, as in
the opera workshop case. Benson
felt students involved in the class
should take the financial respon
sibility.
The Hawaii Club had only one
goal, which was approved 5-1,
with Eggleston dissenting. Hawaii
Club members volunteer all time
and effort for other club activities,
but asked the IFC to support the
annual club Luau.
Eggleston called it a "nice thing,
but I don’t think we should pay for
it.” Other IFC members compared
it to various IFC-supported cul
tural nights.
The Condon Society, a geology
interest group, was the last prog
ram heard Sunday night. Their
goal to expand their current lec
ture series was passed 6-0.
A goal to provide field trips was
heavily debated, yet passed 4-2,
with Ted Walker and Eggleston
casting the negative votes. Com
mittee members questioned the
benefit of geology field trips to the
general student body. The goal
was approved with the stipulation
that all information from the trips
be made availabe to the student
population.
The last Condon Society goal,
r
to provide an office and phone,
was approved, 5-1. Jeff Warren
dissented.
Monday night, at 8 p.m. in the
EMU, Room 101, the hearings
continue. On Monday’s schedule
are the Women’s Resource and
Referral Center, the Chinese Stu
dent Association and the Drug In
formation Center. IFC members
encourage all interested students
to attend and participate.
