Positions finalized on Elections Board ■Additionally, the senate grants nearly $17,000 in special requests to three student groups By Emily Gust Oregon Daily Emerald The ASUO Elections Board was finally filled Wednesday night as the Student Senate approved all four candidates se lected by Elections Coordinator Shantell Rice. Bringing together a variety of experi ences, Rice managed to fill the board with several mem bers who have had previous ASUO experience — an especially important fact as the board must now jump into the middle of an elections process already under way. The senate approved former ASUO state affairs coordinator Matt Swanson to the elections board office manager position. “I kind of know the lay of the land ... I’ve been through a few elections,” Swanson told the sen ate. “I know the most important thing we can do is run an open and fair elections process.” Political science major and for mer senator Emily Sedgwick is now elections manager. “I thought student government was probably the most valuable thing I did in college,” Sedgwick said. “I want to make that true for many more people.” Stephanie Chaney, a senior pub lic relations major, assumed the publicity coordinator position. Chaney, who works in the Cultural Forum and has also worked in the Executive office, said she wants to help students know what is hap pening on campus. “I’d just like to be part of the team,” she said. The final confirmation hap pened without the nominee in at tendance. The only person to ap ply for the voter educator position was business administration major Kelly Murphy, who also happened to have class while the senate was in session. Senate rules dictate that candi dates must be present at their con firmation hearings, but Rice said the senate had to approve Murphy that night or she would have to find someone else. Temporarily freezing parlia mentary procedure — with Sens. Greg Zimel and C.J. Gabbe speak ing in favor of the candidate — the senate confirmed Murphy to the position. Continuing with a request left over from the last meeting, the sen ate approved a $900 transfer for the Returning Students Associa tion. At issue was the RSA’s request to use $900 from one of its co-di rectors’ stipends to pay for two other positions instead. Last year the senate passed a new stipend model and agreed with the Programs Finance Com mittee that no new stipend posi tions would be created. The two positions the RSA wanted to fund did not already re ceive stipends. Senate President Peter Watts ar gued that there was no way around it: By approving the request, the senate was creating two new stipend positions. But most of the other senators seemed to believe the RSA’s was a one-time special case, and they passed the request despite the agreement. The senate also approved sever al large special requests, and by the end of the night had granted nearly $17,000 out of the general surplus to three student groups. The first and largest request was from the Student Bar Association, which asked for $9,223 to help ini tiate a yearbook for third-year law students — a tradition that the group said it hoped would contin ue in coming years. Because there were questions about whether SBA could receive $1,500 from another source, the senate decided to decrease the number to $7,733. The next largest request to come out of surplus was $5,250 the sen ate granted the Coalition Against Environmental Racism to help fund its Environmental Justice conference. And finally, the senate gave the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Trans gender Alliance $4,000 to help pay for the costs of the group’s March event, Lesbopalooza. In different business, Watts ad mitted to the senate that he had broken several rules late fall term when dealing with a loan for the Black Student Union. Apologizing for his mistakes, which eventually led to frozen funds for the BSU, Watts said he felt like he had let the senate down. The senators, however, did not reprimand Watts, and the body quickly rectified the problem by approving a $234 transfer for the BSU. '
