sighed
"It's kind of small," he said,
"but it's a new apartment near
campus Most apartments
around here are old and dirty.
I travel so far from Springfield
to campus, and then I can't
find n parking spat <• "
Unlike other campus area
apartments renting for
between $400 and $600 per
month. Gaddini said, these
units were built with students'
needs in mind
The 20 units are
soundproof, feature on line
computer hook-ups, bike racks
and hidden storage spaces
They exceed Good-Sense
wealhurizing standards, and
should cost only $:tt) a month
to heat during the winter
months
Since breaking ground last
spring, the construction and
design of the complex has
faced problems.
in addition to troubles w ith
the architects, rent for the
apartments is almost $100
higher than the 1991 estimate
of University consultant and
Eugene housing expert Mike
McCoy.

North wild. That is also a fall torm figure.
Incidental fee funding available for the 1994-95 budget year totals
$4,917,000 That figure is almost $700,000 more than the current figure
for the fund, whii b is $4,835,000. according to Neo.
At least one student group said it is going into the budget hearings
requesting a budget increase
Mohammad Samir, deputy director of the Muslim Student
Assoi lation, said bis group was looking to double its level of IK.
funding.
He said the group had organizational problems in the past that
caused the IK. to lower its funding With those problems now
corrected. Samir said the group is justified in requesting more money.
The MSA currently receives about $5,000 but hopes to increase
its budget to $10,000 That level of funding is normal fora group with
HO members. Samir said
('hough the IFC memtiers said no increases, he said that shouldn t
litas the committee members when faced with a just request.
IFC members are looking i loser at several programs, including
groups like the Snow Hoarders Club, the MBA Association and the
Kntrepreneurs (Hub
"Do they really need student funds for this." Wall said, questioning
the value of the Snow Boarders Club to the whole student population.
Pointing to the MBA Association. Wall said it was late with its
budget to begin with "No budget, zero funding.” she said.
Concerning the EMI! budget, the IFC has approved increases totaling
54 percent over the past nine years. a< cording to IFC records. That's
an increase from $1.2 million to more than $2.02 million now .
Even the EMU has felt the IFC's budget pinch over the last several
years, though.
In the 1990-91 budget, the IFC increased the EMU's budget to $1.9
million. That figure remained frozen until the 1992-93 fiscal year
when it was reduced to $18 million, or more than two percent.
The EMU has seen only about a nine percent increase over the past
four years, including this year's funding level That doesn’t even cover
for inflation.
Still, IFC members said the EMU's budget will be under scrutiny.
Because we care about the success
of all members of our community...
