President Jennifer Williamson and Vico President Zachary Kelton have turned their attention to issues closer to home In addition to administrative business - including hiring a new staff, reorganizing the ASUO office and planning transitional workshops for student groups and leaders - Williamson and Kelton garnered $75,000 from an Oregon State System of Higher Education to maintain the ASUO child care centers this summer. "Maintenance on these buiki ings is something thnt lias iieen traditionally ignored and they were never intended for use as permanent child care facilities." Kelton said The pair said they will be on campus this summer attending committee meetings and work ing on contracts and other year to year operations. "The University doesn't end at the end of the academic year, it continues on." Kelton said In their first week on the job. Williamson and Kelton also secured another $50,000 from the QSS11K maintenance fund to connect EMU student program offices and lounges to the Inter Turn to EXECUTIVE.
