Cuts dominate PFC meeting
■ Severa I grou ps wa I ked
away from reconsideration
hearings with budget
decreases Tuesday night
By Emily Gust
Oregon Daily Emerald
The ASUO Programs Finance
Committee took away some of the
funds it prom
ised student
groups earlier
this year, but
those present
while the PFC
re-examined
their budgets
said they un
derstood why
the cuts were
made.
The Singapore Students Associ
ation walked away from Tuesday’s
budget hearings with $777 less
than it thought it was going to get
for next year, but director Lindsay
Goh said she could see why the
PFC cut where it did.
Last year, the SSA spent nearly
$500 less than it had budgeted,
money that in turn rolled over into
the general surplus. It has also
shown little activity in its budget
so far this year.
“Their cuts were pretty severe,
[but] it seemed pretty reasonable
in consideration of the rollover,”
Goh said.
Another budget reconsidered
Tuesday was the Asian Pacific
American Student Union’s. The
PFC cut the group’s earlier budget
by $170.
APASU Co-director Phuc
Nguyen asked whether the PFC
was reconsidering because the
committee had allotted more mon
ey overall for next year than it had
originally intended.
Mary Elizabeth Madden, PFC
chairwoman, said that was not the
case because action now would
not make any difference. She said
someone noticed a problem with
the group’s budget after it was
passed, so it needed to be dis
cussed further.
Nguyen said later that the PFC’s
cuts were legitimate.
One budget that was cut consid
erably was that of the Students for
the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

rollover.

director,
Singapore Students
Association
The PFC wrangled for some time
to find a decrease that would be
just less than 25 percent, which is
the largest decrease allowed with
out a unanimous vote.
The PFC eventually cut $300
from SETA’s budget — a 24 per
cent decrease.
Records of SETA’s past spending
showed “really, really poor utiliza
tion” of the group’s funds, PFC
member Aaron Week said.

Lawrence Gillespie, another

lem lay in illegal transfers from of
one part of the group’s account
into its fundraising accounts.
