The Oregon Student Lobby
Board of Directors outlined
plans Saturday for today’s
Legislative work session of the
Joint Ways and Means Commit

Education's budget.
Jim Bernau. OSL executive
director, says the Lobby will ask
the committee to use funds
already cut from the base bud
get to finance SB 451. an ins
tructional improvement plan
The board also generally
supported the program section
of the budget and placed
priority on library and women s
athletic program improvements
The board decided that any
money cut from the program
budget should go toward tuition
relief, Bernau says, adding that
the lobby also suggests using
the $4 8 million in cuts recom
mended by the Legislative Fis

increases The board has set 7
percent as the limit for tuition
increases The office has
recommended a 9.8 percent
increase for 1979-80 and 9 4
percent for 1980-81.
The board also opposes
proposed increases in applica

increases, which would
generate an estimated 2.1
million, are unjustified. Bernau
says
The board will try to amend a
bill in the Legislature to outlaw
the commission's action, and
wait for the attorney general's
opinion on the move. If those
courses of action fail, the OSL
will ask for a court injunction
against the lowered wage and
