before coming to a compromise
allowing senators two hours in
the ASUO office, with the re
mainder of office hours to be
spent at other campus locations.
This does not affect hours at the
grievance and information
booth.
The motion carried nine in
favor, one opposed and one
abstaining.
Senators also discussed possi
ble changes in confirmation
procedures to speed up confir
mation hearings.
Frymoyer explained that past
problems with confirmation
procedures have lead to the cur
rent ‘generic" guidelines that
allow the senate only to refuse
confirmation on grounds of
incompetence.
Paulson said the senate
should follow the U.S. Senate’s
standards of confirmation
because confirmation privilege
is the only power student
senators have in deciding who
will represent students.
"We need to look at the
whole person," Paulson said,
adding that if Adolf Hitler was
appointed to a student govern
ment position, he would have to
be confirmed according to cur
rent senate guidelines.
Debate followed with
arguments stating that ap
pointees should be confirmed
on grounds of their commit
ment and not based on their
politics.
"We're not responsible for
confirmation on basis of
politics," Dungannon said.
Frymoyer informed the
senators that she would object
to confirmations based on an
appointee’s politics.
Frymoyer asked senators to
think of possible solutions to
the debate over confirmation
and to present them at the
senate's next meeting. She also
asked Paulson to present a copy
of the U.S. Senate's confirms
t i o n standards for
consideration.
Other business discussed in
cluded a motion to place a stu
dent on the Animal Care and
Use Committee. Frymoyer sug
gested the senate send a letter to
University President Paul Olum
asking him to appoint a student
to the committee.
The motion passed nine in
favor, one abstaining.
' Senate Vice Chairman Jon
Kisling also informed the
senators there jvere student
seats open in several of the
Faculty and Administrative
Committees.
"This is the best the senate
has ever done on sending
students on the committees."
Frymoyer said.
The senate also confirmed a
'‘semi-informal*’ public
meeting to be held on Feb. 21 at
6:30 p.m. at Guido’s.

said.
Hoyt said, “We're going to be actively seek
ing and recruiting the ideas of people and seeing
what the students really care about."
Although Hoyt said their platform is not yet
complete, the main points they will be lobbying
for. if elected, are greater ethnic diversity, cam
pus safety, child care, financial aid. handicapped
access, and better student representation in
University governance.
Gaffney and Hoyt will have the chance to go
before the SPA endorsement committee later this
month or in early March, according to SPA
spokesman Steve Nelson. Nelson, who was the
1986-1987 ASIJO president, said that although
SPA has not yet officially endorsed any can
didates. “there are some (SPA) members in
cluding myself who are eager to support this
ticket."
Nelson said that running a CSRL/SPA ticket
is “different from anything that’s been done
before. But different times demand different
things.... Coalition building is a common ac
tion and theme in politics, and 1 think it will work
well here."
Gaffney said she believes a coalition will
work because many of the distinctions between
the two parties are "artificial." She added she is
"still committed to the ideals of CSRI,.”
Although Gaffney was elected as vice presi
dent last year with CSRL, she ran for and won a
position on the EMU Board of Directors in 1985 as
a member of SPA. Despite her running mate being
an SPA member, Gaffney said her political beliefs
are not shifting. “My political ideals haven’t

changed at all." she said.
CSRL has not yet decided if it will support
the Gaffney/Hoyt ticket, nor has the organization
decided if it will field its own complete presi
dent/vice president ticket, according to CSRL
spokeswoman Wendy Fisher.
Gaffney will earn her bachelor's degree in
journalism this spring and plans to enroll in the
Planning, Public Policy and Management pro
gram as a graduate student next fall. Hoyt plans to
finish his undergraduate work in English next
year.
