minutes IFC The Incidental Fee Committee Thursday ap proved a ballot measure that will appear on the ASUO’s April 24 and 25 general election ballot. The measure calls for the extension of the ASUO’s constitutionally mandated annual limita tion on incidental fee expenditure increases. The ballot measure provides for the extension of the limitation to the Athletic Department and the EMU House and Administrative committees. Currently, the ASUO Constitution requires that the fee committee’s budget not increase by more than 7 percent in any fiscal year. The in crease is calculated by adding the budgets of the majority of IFC-funded programs. The Athletic department and the two EMU committees are the only three programs exempted from the expenditure assessment. IFC member Adam Apalategui, who was the measure’s chief sponsor, believes passage of the measure would “place the three groups on the same footing as all other IFC-funded organizations.” The measure passed the committee by a vote of 6-0. Apalategui’s proposal will appear on the general election ballot as soon as the ASUO Con stitution Court confirm’s the measure’s language. In other IFC business, the committee finaliz ed the language for the ballot measure related to the funding of the Oregon Daily Emerald. The committee voted in February to place the funding of the Emerald’s budget before the stu dent body. Also, the Black Student Union returned $500 to the IFC because it was unable to secure a lec It turer for that amount. The BSU had planned to have Gil Nobel speak at the University. Elections Board Members of the ASUO Elections Board decid ed Friday that William Sean Roberts and Phillip Grayson, candidates for the respective positions of ASUO president and vice president, will have to run under their given names. Elections Board Chair Alan Contreras says that under ASUO Elections Rule 4.2, Roberts and Grayson cannot run under the nicknames of “Von Dragonclaugh” and “Iron Man,” names they had requested earlier for the upcoming ballot. In addition, three of the five board members found that two candidates for Student University Affairs Board positions should be running for business positions on the board and not for the “undeclared” seat. According to SUAB’s “reapportionment plan,” which divides majors between the available seats, Contreras says John Larson and Kelly Sweet were incorrectly told to file for the undeclared seat instead of the business positions as they are pre-business majors. The SUAB races have been revised to reflect John Larson as an opponent now to C.B. Key for the business seat; seat no. 16, an “undeclared” seat, will be a write-in race; Arthur Daret is runn ing unopposed for seat no. 17, also “undeclared”; and Kelly Sweet will run for one of the one-year SUAB business seats. Candidates who wish to change their Voters Guide statement because they are now in a dif ferent race have until 5 p.m. today to do so.
