Senate at tha meeting, part of its raro pan ant
iim reasa request stipulated tha lose of many lower
level student seats at McArthur Court
Senators Nani Serosa and Jennifer Lisenbee.
who wuried with the Athletic Department to nego
liate the details of the budget, said the ADR: was
btnded to a filed amount (*1.009,9821 and the loas
of student seat* was unavoidable
We can't afford to have these seats." Lisenbee
said. "The money has to come from somewhere "
According io Athletic Department documents,
an average of only 1800 students used the 3.600
tickets available lo them each game this year
Li sen bee and Sarosa said these and other more
comprehensive numbers showed the decrease in
student tickets was manageable
"We ha*i the best deal going and it's unfortunate
students didn't take advantage of it," Lisenbee
■aid
Tha mat of the Senate disagreed and voted down
the budget unanimously. Many senator* were
uncomfortable with tha drastic loss in lower-level
•oats, which ini Jude the courtside sections CC. (X)
ami id* Many student seats would be moved to the
third balcony.
“(The AFIX:( is asking us to give away the best
seats." Sen Susan Anderson said “I can t sea stu
dents wanting to sit in the third balcony."
Sen Andrew Parmentier said having students
on the floor at games is important to both the play
ers and students
“We can t shortchange students." he said. “For a
lot of students, athletic events are a big part of the
college experience ”
Sandy Walton, senior associate athletic direc tor,
said as a result of rising costs, the loss and move
moot of seats was the only option in order to keep
the agreement with tha ASUO.
I understand your anger and I don't blame you
a bit for it. but with hard economic reality, it's all
we can do about it,” she said.
Ltsenban and Sarosa will meet with Walton to
find a new agreement to present to the Senate in a
special meeting on Tuesday night that is intend
ed to resolve the issue
