Katcha Phinney As I finish my year as a sophomore and Resident Assistant here at the University of Oregon, I realize the time and dedica tion it takes to perform and excel both as a student and a leader. When I undertake a job that requires an extensive amount of work and time, I commit myself fully to that position. I know the I.F.C. Committee is such a job. I will work earnestly to ensure that arbi trary decisions are not made with I.F.C. funds, while continuing to promote growth in campus organizations. Whichever your choice, please award yourself the opportunity to vote. Pamela Jordan I.F.C. is a seven member board which allocates student funds to approximately sixty organizations on campus. Because this committee distributes student mon ies its members must take the time to fairly distribute these funds. Money is increasingly harder to come by these days. It is important that thought and consideration are put into these alloca tions and that organizational budgets brought before the I.F.C. are not cut arbitrarily as they have been in the past. If elected, I as a member of I.F.C. will take the time to see that student funds are distributed to organizations that best benefit the student-body as a whole and are most representative of student inter ests. I work well with people, I am responsi ble and straightforward and will do a good job. Please VOTE! Cathi Bulone Manna doesn’t grow on trees so God created the Incidental Fee Committee. We all pay incidental fees. Two million dollars worth as a matter of fact. It stands to reason that the people we choose to allocate that level of loot to should be something more than mediocre. We need experienced, qualified, fiscally knowledgeable individuals. The I.F.C. should not be a political circus or an egomaniacal tug-of-war for the spotlight. No matter who you are or what your academic focus, your life has been and will continue to be, touched by the deci sions of the I.F.C. Pretty frightening, huh? Considering the fact that a lot of people gladly fork that money over hav ing absolutely no idea where it goes or who sends it there. As to priorities for funding: I have none. I intend to operate with no perconceived notions. An em phasis on equitable allocation cannot help but result. Put the pursestrings in the hands of someone who really knows how to han dle them. If you're interested in support ing a candidate with sound, reasonable judgement and an ability to listen objec tively, my name is Cathi Bulone. I am running for I.F.C. Please my candidacy. John Miche And now for something completely different: Are you tired of the same old student government filled with petty little snobs who are just looking to justify their own existence? Are you angered by the Ath letic Departments continued squander ing of student funds, as if our pockets were filled with gold? Are you distressed by the Board of Higher Education’s im potence when dealing with the State Legislature? Well, I am, and as a member of the I.F.C. it is my hope to effect a positive change in the future policies of these organizations. Let's be honest with ourselves. All we are really interested in is Sex, Drugs, and Rock n Roll. As an Incidental Fee Com mittee person it is my intention to promote to the fullest of my abilities these three admirable pursuits. If you are not interested in at least one of these items there is something seriously wrong with you for which you should seek im mediate professional help. In short, when you’re out at the polls throwing your votes away, do me a favor and throw one of yours in my direction. Jon Bernstein The main function of the Incidental Fee Committee (IFC) is the responsible allocation of student funds. In our financially troubled times we need to see that our dollars fund programs as ef ficiently as possible, to broaden our cultural and recreational opportunities. There are many criteria which should be passed before funds are allocated for a program. These are: • How many students are affected dir ectly or indirectly by the program • Is there more than one program providing the same service. • Is the service useful. • Has the program worked well previously, meeting its goals and sticking to its budget. • Is the program willing to raise funds for itself in addition to its IFC support. To make sure that each program is within this guideline, there is much re search and evaluation to do. I am ready to commit myself to spend the time necessary to make our budget a viable one. I am not be able to save the world or stop inflation, but I may be able to save you some money and help our programs back onto their feet. REMEMBER JON BERNSTEIN FOR IFC Student University Affairs Board 1 Law No filed candidates 2 Journalism Cheryl Steinhaus Involvement and enthusiasm. These are two important elements in a quality candidate, and ones I feel I possess. My past year at the university has been spent facilitating a publicity campaign for the E S C A P E, program, and I am currently writing on the Emerald staff. This SUAB position will enable me to contribute to the university in a governmental capaci ty Through my involvement in the Senate and my willingness to voice my views on behalf of journalism students, I will be benefiting you. My past experiences with student organizations have helped me develop the communication skills necessary for a position of this kind. It is essential that there is open communica tion between students and their repre sentative. Most important, I will enthusiastically support the interests and concerns of journalism students. This can be ac complished by taking advantage of the opportunity to work with the faculty in decision-making and policy setting. Your vote for Cheryl Steinhaus will assure you of effective representation in the Univer sity Senate. I welcome your support on April 15 and 16. David Kosse No statement submitted. 3, 4 Business/ Economics (2 positions) Tamae Moriyasu Feeling uninformed? Realizing the im portance of understanding the major issues of the Business/Economic department, I will keep abreast of them and represent you well in the Student University Affairs Board. In the wake of the present budget cuts, we will need a strong representative in the Business/Economic department, to insure a high academic standard. As a sophomore in the Business school, I have a vested interest in seeing the department maintain a superior quality of education. I realize the responsibilities inherent in this position, and I will be a reliable, dedicated, and informed leader. Keith Johnson Higher education is in trouble. This is a time for strong leadership from qualified and dedicated student government. S.U.A.B. is a vital part of that student government. If elected I will voice student interests to the administration and faculty. Now, more than ever, S.U.A.B. needs members who are qualified and I am sure that I can meet the challenge. As a senior I know how the system works, and am familiar with the problems students face. As to my qualifications, I am majoring in both Finance and Econ omics and my senior standing gives me the academic experience necessary for the job. This term my Finance degree requir ements will be completed and I will con tinue studying toward my Economics degree. I will only be carrying a load of about 12 hours a term from now on, and that means I will have one of the most important assets necessary for this job and that is time. Desire and time can accomplish a lot. 6 CSPA/Education No filed candidates. 7 HPER/Dance/ Gerontology No filed candidates. 8 Biology/Chemistry/ Pre-Health Kevin Conover No statement submitted. 9 Computer Science/ Math/Geology/Physics Geoffrey Nlcholls No statement submitted. 10 Allied Arts/ Architecture No filed candidates. 12 Psychology/ Anthropology/ Sociology Suzanne Bergere As a candidate for the position of representative for the Student University Affairs Board, I feel that there are several qualifications such a candidate must possess. She must be aware of the is sues and concerns of the university as well as the needs and concerns of the students. A S.U.A.B. representative is the voice of the students. Therefore, she must be unbiased in her votes to the Senate and Assembly. She must voice only her constituents’ concerns and must place aside any of her own beliefs she possesses. I feel that I do possess these qualities which I have mentioned. As a previous member of S.U.A.B., I was involved in lobbying efforts at our state capitol to defend the issue of higher education. I was also involved in the vote for deferring the mathematics proficiency requirement due to budge tary reasons until 1983. The students’ concerns are my first priority and I intend to fulfill that priority in the best way that I can. 13 Political Science David Newell During the past academic year I have been the Director of the Information and Grievance Center for the Student University Affairs Board. While working in this capacity, I have worked with the ASUO, Faculty, and the Administration. With S.U.A.B., I have also been involved with the University Senate, and Universi ty Assembly. This experience, combined with my dedication and desire for this position, make me I believe, to be the best candidate for this post. I will ap preciate your support at the polls. Thank you. David R.
