Club sports face
budget problems
Each University club sport
may have to raise 15 percent
of its EMU budget or risk an
$1,100 cut, said Dan Cohen,
EMU budget committee
member, at a committee
meeting Tuesday.
The suggestion would serve
as an incentive for clubs to
raise more of their own funds
and rely on EMU funding less.
Sports clubs meeting the 15
percent requirement would
receive $1,100, Cohen said.
The suggestion will be
discussed at a future meeting.
Other subjects covered by
the budget committee includ
ed longer hours for the
Skylight Refectory, and an up
date on the Main Desk and the
Recreation Center.
The committee is planning
to move the popcorn machine
at the Main Desk to the
Skylight Refectory and to in
crease the Refectory's hours
during finals week. “This is
expected to bring in more
revenue to the Skylight, which
is losing eight to 10 percent of
its possible sales because
students use it as a place to
study all day long, rather than
for eating,” said EMU director
Adell McMillan.
The Main Desk has operated
at a deficit for the past two
years, losing more than
$13,000 over the 1981-82
school year, said board
member John Dulcich.
The deficit was offset by
food services revenue, he
added.
Hours can’t be cut to save
money, because the desk
serves as an information con
tact center and must stay
open while the EMU building
is open, McMillan said. Main
Desk revenue has gone up in
this past year even though it
still operates at a deficit, she
added
Bookstore considers
10-percent discount
Sales at the University bookstore in January ended a four
month slide by increasing .34 percent over the same period last
year, said bookstore manager Jim Williams at Tuesday's board
of directors meeting.
Increased sales of used textbooks, art equipment, elec
tronics, University merchandise and sporting goods offset a
continued decline in new book sales, the manager’s report said.
The 11-percent discount on new texts totaled $77,000 for
the first 24 days of the month, which is one-fourth of last year's
discount, Williams said. But he added the 50 cent restocking fee
has cut the number of texts returned by students by 20 percent
so far this term.
The board is still considering a new 10-percent discount on
all books for the fiscal year beginning in July.
The discount could be a one-year experiment to gauge stu
dent response "in spite of the reduced text discount and what
might be perceived as an increased hassle in having to present a
student body card to receive the discount," director Muriel
Jackson said.
The bookstore will publish a full-page annual report of
1981-82 in the Feb 16 Emerald to show how the bookstore has
used profits to increase student services, said Sara Yamahiro,
the store's advertising and public relations manager who
prepared the report
