Government EMU or the athletic depart ment’s ticket subsidy. "I think they set up arbitrary guidelines and stick to them," said another student who re quested anonymity. Some students who think the IFC does a good job said they occasionally disagree with committee decisions but believe the committee does a good job overall. SUAB is the least-known student government organiza tion. According to the survey, 70 percent of the students do not know if the board does a good job, while the remaining 30 percent said SUAB does a good job. "They keep us quite inform ed,” said Thomas Hemenway, a rhetoric and communication senior. "They generally have the students interests at heart.” The ASUO president's of fice does a good job ac cording to 40 percent of the surveyed students. Fifteen percent think the office does a poor job, and 45 percent are undecided. Two undecided students said they do not know who the ASUO president is, while a third student said he didn’t know the president has a cam pus office. Some students who thought the ASUO president’s office does a good job said they bas ed their answer on the presi dent’s ability to avoid trouble. "He seems to have avoided any major controversies,” said Larry Adams, a first-year law student. “That’s the best you can expect.” The office needs to publicize itself more and en courage more students to come in and talk, said Lisa Goff, a chemistry junior. The survey results did not surprise ASUO Pres. C.J. Balfe. “I think it’s very represen tative, even if it’s unscien tific,” Balfe said Monday. The ASUO has publicized its services in Emerald articles and advertisements, including weekly program ads, but students still are uninformed, he said. “It’s harder than hell to get them to understand what we do,” Balfe said. The president said he is “fresh out of ideas” on how to publicize student government. IFC Chairer Betzy Fry said most governing bodies that handle money are criticized. Students do not understand the budgeting process, Fry said. "Most program directors do not understand the budgeting process," she said. And if the program directors do not understand the process, most students wouldn’t either, Fry said. SUAB Chairer Dan Allen said the SUAB results show ing apparent satisfaction with the board’s performance sur prised him. He expected some dissatisfaction. Students apparently are becoming more informed about the SUAB’s functions, although no previous polls ex ist to compare the Emerald’s results with, Allen said. But the board will keep try ing to make their services known to the large number of students who do know about SUAB, he said. “We’re in the same board with everyone else in student government," Allen said. Tax hearing to be held I The House Revenue com mittee will hold a public meeting at Harris Hall in downtown Eugene tonight at 7:30 p.m. The hearing will probably focus on tax reform, especially the sales tax and property tax relief, according to Terry Drake, an economist with the committee. He says the testimony may move toward the general fund budget because of community in terest in the University. Drake says the committee has been traveling around the state to try to get input from citizens about tax reform. At the Bookstore: You'll never have to pay phone rent again!
