Senate canceled for lack of quorum The third senate meeting of this summer was canceled Wednesday night because a quorum was not reached. Four mem bers of the senate were required for a quorum, but only three were able to make the meeting. Meanwhile, three groups, the Mul ticultural Center (MCC), the Com mentator and the Journal of Environ mental Law and Litigation (JELL), were present and planning on making special requests. “I feel pretty embarrassed,” said Kent Black, president of the summer senate. "It’s really unprofessional. Hopefully, we can get four people to morrow." The meeting was rescheduled for Thursday at 5:30 p.m. The location is to be announced. The MCC was present to request $1,000 to finish paying Faces of America, a theatrical group brought in during spring 1997. 'The money rolled over [into the slush fund] before the group was paid,” said Huy Ong, resource coordi nator for the MCC. Andrew Oberriter, editor-in-chief of the Commentator, a University magazine, was present to ask for $70 to coverthe costs of a new lockforthe Commentator office. “Sometime between the weekend after graduation and July 1, some body broke into the office and stole about $3,000 worth of computer equipment,” Oberriter said. “We want a new lock because we think the thief may have had a key to the office," he said. TODAY’S NEWS Representatives from JELL, a bian nual journal published by University law students, were there to request a transfer of $675 from their work study line item to their payroll ac count line item so that their current summer editor could be paid. The previous summer editor, who qualified for work study, was forced to resign due to personal and emer gency medical reasons, JELL repre sentatives said in their request. 3 UO students chosen for USSA leadership Three University students were elected to leadership positions at the 50th Annual United States Student Association (USSA) Student Con gress in Madison that took place July 21-28. ASUO President Bill Miner was elected vice-chair of the “State and System Student Association Coali tion” caucus—groups that each del egate attending the USSA Congress joins. ASUO Vice-President Ben Unger was elected chairof the “Northwest Region" caucus, which represents higher education in Oregon, Wash ington, Alaska Idaho and Montana. “I’m really excited,” Unger said. “It’s a fantastic opportunity for coali tion building.” Unger plans to increase the partici pation of public and private schools in Oregon and other "Northwest Re gion” states. Melissa Watson, ASUO federal af fairs coordinator, was elected char of the “Non-traditionai Student" caucus. While at the USSA Congress, the students attended workshops that in cluded training regarding affirmative action, lesbian/gay/bisexual issues and people of color issues, Miner said. “We also passed as a part of the USSA platform the renaming of the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG) after former Sen. Mark Hatfield so that it prevents future legislators from not funding it,” Miner said.

Classes will not be affected by the construction, officials said. The estimated time of opening is fall of 1999. Architects said they plan on making the building fit into cam pus. The open space between Esslinger and the EMU will work nicely as a view from the build ing, they said.
