    Student Projects
Continued from Page 1
Jackson said after the organiza
tion left the EMU, amid controver
sy that Footnotes was accused of
discriminating against a student
for her political views, many pro
fessors opted not to use the ser
vices anymore. They reasoned that
students would not come to class if
notes were being taken for them.
At the organization’s peak, it was
taking notes for 50 classes. When it
closed, Student Projects was taking
notes for 12 classes, Jackson said.
But she said the major blow to
the organization was because of
the Internet.
“With the Internet, our closure
was inevitable, even if we had re
mained in the EMU,” she said.
“We just don’t feel like there’s a
need for our services anymore.”
ASUO Executive Coordinator
Cheryl Hunter said the decision to
move Footnotes out of the EMU
was made by the EMU House
Committee.
“The committee decided the
space needed to be used for other
programs,” she said.
The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual,
Transgender Alliance is currently
using the space left vacant by
Footnotes.
Although Student Projects was
never funded by the ASUO, they
were tied together by a represen
tative from the ASUO who served
on the Student Projects Inc. board
of directors, Hunter said.
“Originally, the ASUO was in
strumental in creating Student
Projects Inc. because it was sup
posed to be a fund-raising arm of
the ASUO,” she said.
But in 1989, Student Projects
separated itself from the ASUO,
and a member of the ASUO was
no longer required to serve on the
organization’s board of directors,
Hunter said.
From that point on, Footnotes
was self-supporting, she said.
“The ASUO had no official role
in the organization for the last
eight years they were in the
EMU," she said.
Even though the organization
became independent from the
ASUO, the original articles of in
corporation said that if the organi
zation dissolves, the ASUO re
ceives all its assets, Hunter said.
Because the organization only
officially closed on Dec. 3, nothing
has been done yet to recover possi
ble remaining assets, she said.
Jackson, who is also the acting
secretary, said the organization
lost the most support when it left
the EMU.
“That was really the make-or
break, when we left the EMU,” she
said. “The decision to close was
made in mid-November and we
have no plans to open again.”
GOP prepares for impeachment trial
President Clinton will
deliver the State of the
Union address as
scheduled on Jan. 19
By David Espo
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The
House impeachment team read
ied opening arguments on
Tuesday for President Clinton's
historic Senate trial, while
White House spokesman Joe
Lockhart ridiculed their written
filings as “overblown rhetoric”
alleging sinister plots.
“I'll leave the invective to Mr.
Lockhart,” retorted Rep. Henry
Hyde, R-Ill., the point man in
the case against the president.
With the trial to resume at 10
a.m. PST on Thursday, Lock
hart also told reporters Clinton
intends to stay busy on other
matters while the proceedings
unfold in the Senate.
The president will deliver his
State of the Union speech be
fore a joint session of Congress
on Jan. 19, for example, and
travel to Buffalo, N.Y., and
Montgomery County, Pa., out
side Philadelphia, the following
day to tout his domestic agen
da. According to a tentative
schedule released in the Senate,
Clinton's attorneys would be
presenting his defense both
days.
Clinton stands accused of
perjury and obstruction of jus
tice in the two articles of im
peachment that cleared the
House last year. His Senate trial
is only the second such presi
dential proceeding in American
history, 131 years after Andrew
Johnson was acquitted in 1868.
In a measure of concern for
decorum, senators are being
asked to observe unusual guide
lines for the trial, including a re
quest for all 100 to be in atten
dance “at all times,” and to
restrict their reading materials to
papers pertaining to the trial.
There had been some confusion
over what to call Chief Justice
William Relinquish It was decid
ed “in accordance with prece
dent” he would be addressed as
Chief Justice.
House officials have until
noon on Wednesday to turn
over the written record in Clin
ton’s impeachment case. De
mocratic sources, who spoke
on condition of anonymity,
said they would carefully scru
tinize the submission to make
sure it did not include material
that is irrelevant to the two ar
ticles of impeachment passed
by the House.
Presidential allies are pre
pared to object if they believe
the House has included materi
al that was not part of the two
articles, these sources said.
They added that Abbe D.
Lowell, the lead lawyer for
House Judiciary Committee De
mocrats during proceedings in
the House, had met with Sen
ate Democratic aides recently
and would be reviewing the
material.
The White House worked
against a Wednesday deadline
for submission of its own trial
brief. One outside adviser,
speaking on condition of
anonymity, said it was being
drafted to suggest that House
Republicans drew conclusions
from the evidence that went far
beyond prosecutor Kenneth
Starr’s own analysis of the evi
dence.
The adviser said the brief,
which must still be approved
by the president, is expected to
highlight contradictory testi
mony and try to make a strong
case that the key witnesses in
the case — Monica Lewinsky,
Betty Currie and Vernon Jordan
— all made statements that
support Clinton’s denials of
wrongdoing.
