Speedy incidental fee meeting
ends in additional budget cuts
The Incidental Fee Committee took just four
minutes to conduct its business at a Tuesday
meeting.
Women in Science, an organization that
brings together women interested in careers in
science, received $461, a 5 percent decrease
from last year's budget. The IFC unanimously
passed every item of the group’s budget, cutting
only $12 from the original request.
An executive reserve note was attached to
the group’s largest expense — a $300 expenditure
for six seminar speakers. The note, which means
next year’s ASUO president must approve each
expenditure of “honoraria” funds, was attached
because the group had not used any of the money
allocated for speakers this year.
Two budget hearings were cancelled
because representatives did not show up
The hearing on the Amazon Community
Tenants’ budget was cancelled because no
representatives of the group were present, and
the ESCAPE program hearing was postponed
because Julie Bell, the IFC member acting as a
tag for the group, did not attend the meeting.
ESCAPE director Jim Doty said he was "fairly
upset’’ at the delay, but he hopes to bring a large
group of supporters to the Feb. 25 meeting.
The ASUO Executive office has recommend
ed a 10 percent cut in the group’s budget. Doty
said the program will try to limit the decrease to
the requested 5 percent.
The IFC utilized its extra time to report on
expenditures during the budgeting process so far
this year.
After budgeting for 31 groups, the IFC has
allocated $22,730 more than it did last year at the
same time. The increase concerned several com
mittee members.
"We re not scrutinizing enough,” said com
mittee member Kathy Stebner. She recommend
ed the IFC begin to question budget requests
more closely.
But committee member Jim Edmundson
pointed out the members “are not full-time ex
ecutives.” He suggested the IFC reconsider in
dividual budgets at the end of the process if the
total is over or under the desired goal.
