Time crunch made
4 IFCers bow out
By Rich Burr
Otth*Em»raM
Time constraints and other school activities were reasons why
tour of six eligible IFC incumbents did not run for office next year
The time constraints imposed on third-year law students was
the main reason he did not run, IFC chairer Karsten Rasmussen
said.
“The only office I would have run for would have been ASUO
president," he says. "I was encouraged by many people within the
ASUO and outside to run."
"The temptation to run was very great," Rasmussen adds
"There are many things that need to be done."
But he could not be both an ASUO president and a third-year
law student without one aspect being adversely affected, he says
“It makes no sense to sacrifice my academic position any more
than it already has," Rasmussen says. "I don’t think the people
(running for IFC next year) understand the pressures that go along
with this job."
For two other IFC members who are also law students, election
to Student Bar Association leadership positions influenced their
decisions not to run
The SBA presidency will take much of his time next year, Steve
Baldwin said.
"In all candor, I would not have run for IFC again," he says
Since he had learned all the intricacies of the job, the personal
satisfaction derived from doing the work would have diminished,
Baldwin says
Since she was elected SBA business officer, Cathi Bulone
decided to forego re-election The position will take up as much
time as the IFC, she says
Because of previous involvement with the Student University
Affairs Board and IFC, the SBA position was "kind of like coming
home for me.” Bulone says The position is more plausible because
it is related to her major, she adds
David Gibson says he did not run for re-election because he is
campaigning for fraternity candidates to enhance his possibilities
for a vice presidential position
A busy schedule and a desire to avoid “sb/t-flinging” during the
IFC elections were reasons she did not run, Sheila Schain says
Center plans open house
An open house at the Environmental Studies Center is
planned from noon to 5 p.m. today in observance of the Earth
Week celebration.
The center, in 104 Condon Hall, contains approximately
6,000 books and 200 periodicals

Mellow for Kouns,
if only for 2 hours
By Dane Claussen
Otlht emmrmtd
As the hours speedily ticked toward the ASUO general elec
tions today and tomorrow, some ex-candidates made eleventh
hour endorsements and Gus Palmitessa, ASUO elections director,
changed the location ot several polling booths
Debbie Mellow, who finished third in the ASUO presidential
primary, told the Emerald Tuesday she was swinging her support to
Kevin Kouns But, less than two hours later, she decided to
withdraw support for either presidential candidate
Kouns and C.J Balfe have platforms with which Mellow says
she cannot totally agree And there are the alleged campaign
violations. Mellow added
“Kevin Kouns would have a much more open office and would
actually do things for students,” Mellow said in her earlier Kouns
endorsement statement
Kouns, a junior in sociology and women's studies running on
the Students for a Progressive Agenda platform, finished a close
second to Balfe in last week's primary voting
"I think the choice continues to get clearer between C.J and
the SPA,” Kouns said when Mellow announced support for his
campaign "I think the more constituent groups we can pull in, the
better we ll do." he added
"I think she's going against her platform," Balfe said after
hearing of Mellow's support for Kouns
“I am very surprised and disappointed that Debbie has
changed her mind,” Kouns said upon hearing of Mellow's change
of support "I am also surprised at the method by which I was
informed of her decision," he added Kouns was informed of
Mellow's withdrawal of support by an Emerald reporter
"It is unfortunate that she did not think through her decision
before making a public commitment," Kouns said
Also Tuesday, the "Gang of Four" endorsed Incidental Fee
Committee candidates Marc Spence and Bob Mead
The "Gang" consists of four IFC candidates who did not make
it onto the general elections ballot — Mike Cross. Eric Stillwell,
David Ridenour and Doug Green Cross did receive enough votes
to get into the general election, but was disqualified for failing to
submit a campaign finances statement on time
In other election news, Palmitessa announced polling booth
changes Polling booths located at the music school and Agate St
bike crossing during the primary will be located at the education
school and Oregon Hall respectively during the general election
In addition, new booths will be located in Carson and Hamilton
dormitory lobbies, he said
