Contreras says
ASUO supports prep fans
By Steve Hooks

University students may subsidize high
school students who attend University athletic
events, says one ASUO official The athletic
department business manager disagrees
The Incidental Fee Committee allocated
$544,000 of students' tees to the athletic depart
ment for the 1982 fiscal year, says Alan Conteras,
acting ASUO vice president of program adminis
tration. The money reduces the ticket prices
University students pay to attend sporting events
The athletic department ticket office says
high school students, as well as grade school
students, get into games for the same price as
University students
If the athletic department extends the same
discount to high school students, the $544,000
may subsidize this, Contreras says
This is not true, according to Mike Easterly,
athletic department business manager Reduced
general admission ticket prices for high school
and grade school students have been a long
standing policy of the athletic department, he
says
Reduced general admission ticket prices are
not subsidized through incidental fees and are
treated separately from University student tickets,
Easterly says
"The figures never talk to each other," he
says
“It is technically correct that our subsidy is
not tied to the price of tickets for high school
students," Contreras says "But anytime the
athletic department is offering a discount to
somebody other than U of O students, it's in effect
raising the amount U of O students must put into
the athletic department "
Currently, $12 per student per term goes to
the athletic department, he says
Administrators of Eugene, Springfield, and
Bethel school districts say their districts do not
pay the athletic department a subsidy to reduce
ticket prices for high school students One was
surprised to learn a University ticket discount was
available for high school students
College students are entitled to discounts to
high school sports events, says Charles Hamby,
business administrator for the Eugene schools
This is "standard throughout the state," he adds
This reciprocal deal "still does not change
the fundamental problem," Contreras says The
financially troubled athletic department is giving
high school students discounts at University
students' expense, and "wouldn't give any dis
count in the first place if it didn't get the subsidy,"
he says
"I don’t see why I should pay so they (the high
school students) can have a good deal," Con
treras says “Why, with all the griping about
balancing the (athletic department) budget, are
they letting high school students in at a reduced
rate?”
How many high school students actually take
advantage of the discount may influence the
athletic department’s future share of the ASUO
budget, Contreras claims The ASUO would find
out the dollar amount lost from high school
discounts and base decisions on those statistics,
he says
Any changes would be effected only after
recommendations from Rich Wilkins, ASUO
president, are sent to the IFC, Contreras said

vous yet, she says
"The question of attracting
new students is critical to us."
Ramey says, adding reasons
why she thinks the housing
department will weather the
storm
The expenses of living off
campus and the establishment
of some halls reserved for up
perclassmen or graduate
students are factors keeping
more and more upperclassmen
in the dorms, she says
A good selection of halls and
food will keep the dorms
attractive. Ramey says, along
with a concerted effort to find
out how students think the
quality of dorm life can be im
proved
Selling dormitory life to
students is "a matter of market
ing and service,” Ramey says
"We don’t try to spoil the
students but we keep in mind
the student is our customer "
Occupancy projections were
above actual figures for both fali
and winter terms, but they have
yet to cause serious concern,
she says Only 2,981 students
lived in residence halls during
the fall term of a projected
I
3,057, while winter residents
numbered 2,918, falling short of
a 3,026 projection
Underrealizations so far
amount to only 1-percent of the
year's budget, Ramey says
‘ It's a trend we certainly have
to keep our eye on ''
Economizing is the way to
deal with any upcoming prob
lems. Ramey says
Students moving out or leav
ing the University during the
year will cause more single-oc
cupancy rooms, but little in
come is lost because single
rooms cost more, she says
Another selling point of the
"residence halls"— as housing
and Residence Hall Govern
ance Committee members
now call dormitories — is that
not all education takes place in
the classroom," Ramey says
The University recognizes
this, and places 13 housing
department officials at the
faculty level, she says The rest
of the staff are state civil service
employees
Because of the nature of the
department's funding, Ramey
says there is a "constant re
sponsibility to run a good ship "
