BUDGET
Continued from Page 1A
said Norm Wossolls, University provost and vice
president for academic affairs.
Wossolls said the amount of applications for
admission has increased, and, especially in the
next few years with the higher number of high
school graduates, the demand for an education is
going to skyrocket.
Kolxsrts also proposes a 7 percent tuition in
crease per year for resident undergraduates, al
though Brand doesn't think this will have u sig
nificant impact on students.
"This is a modest tuition increase in this envi
ronment,” Brand said. "If you look at California,
they're going up another 20 percent."
If the proposed budget is accepted by the legis
lature when It convenes in January, the higher ed
ucation budget will be 16 percent below the cur
rent service level. Part of higher education's
budget reduction came from efficiency and econ
omy revisions.
Higher education administration is expected to
bo out by 20 poroont. yielding a savings of $55
million. This would mean many of the officers of
administration who received warning notices of
pink slips last summer would las notified in limit
ary and next spring of their termination
Brund said he is unsure how the Legislature
will react to Roberts' budget
"The question is Will the Legislature, purlieu
larly the Republican leadership in the House, use
this as a point of departure, or will they ignore
the governor's budget '" Brand said
“Your guess is as good as mine, but to date,
they have not been much taken with the gover
nor's proposals," lie said
Stating that a diminished basis for higher tslii
cation is not good lor business. Brand said he is
ho(M:ful that the state business community will
take u greater role In solving this problem
Brand said the only thing to do now is wait
"Unfortunately, there's nothing specific to do
now We just have to wait until the legislative
session starts,” he said "What we can do now is
talk realistically about the damage that's being
done to higher education and how we re depriv
ing future generations of the opportunities "
HOUSING
Continued from Page 1A
tornational students will sufTer
under the proposed require
ments.
"The University has such a
strong commitment to inter
nationalization." Briggs said. "I
think that whatever policy
(University Housing) works out
will be friendly to international
students "
Eyslnr said University Hous
ing will find a way to assess in
ternational students' financial
noed.
"Wo wouldn't treat them dif
ferently," he said.
Some students believe Uni
versity Housing should be more
concerned with whether appli
cants have children, not finan
cial aid
Kristen Parrott, chairwoman
of the ASUO Child Care Task
Force, said top priority should
go to students with financial
aid who have children — as
proposed — but second priority
should go to students without
financial aid who havo chil
dren.
"A lot of students can't get fi
nancial aid because of the stiff
requirements," Parrott said.
ASUO President Bobby Leo
said he's worried University
Housing is expanding eligibili
ty just to fill vacancies
"The purpose of family hous
ing is to accommodate fami
lies." Lee said. "It seems to me
like it's economics vs a service
toward families "
Hut Todd Nnwmun-Damhurt,
chairman of the Westmoreland
Tenants Council, said students
without financial aid probably
wouldn't want to live in family
housing
"I don't think it's going to be
an issue," he said "if you have
children, and your partner is
making $30,000 to S40.000 a
year, you really have no busi
ness moving hero,"
Newmun-Barnhart said he fa
vors getting rid of the marriage
certificate requirement.
"If you're a couplo, you're a
couple," ho said.
Jackie Ual/er of the Dean of
Students Office said the new
proposal will make family
housing "more accessible to
family units that are not neces
sarily a male and female "
Troy Shields, co-director ot
the Lesbian, Cay and Bisexual
Alliance, said he's glad Univer
sity Housing has proposed to
got rid of the marriage certifi
cate requirement, hut the pro
posal is not perfect
"It's still hetorosexisl because
it tends to give priority to hotor
ostsxuals because they have
children more than gays and
lesbians do." ho said
Other elements of the propos
al that concern students are its
distinction between graduate
students and undergraduates,
and its requirement that under
graduate family housing appli
cants he ut least 21 years old
"It's not fair to separate grad
uates and undergraduates,"
I’arrott said "liven though grad
students pay more for their ed
ucation, they're also more like
ly to have u job."
Nowman-Hamharl said there
shouldn’t ho an age require
ment for family housing resi
dents
"There art) people who live
here and who are married who
aren't 21. and it's absolutely ri
diculous that they couldn’t get
housing," he said.
liysler said University Hous
ing will consider all of the writ
ten and verbal comments pre
sented at today's hearing
"That feedback could result
In dropping this altogether,
modifying it. changing the im
plementation date or any com
bination of those throe," ho
said. "It s still a very open-end
