productive programs on campus
in the future.
My direct involvement with or
ganizations on campus gives me
the perspective necessary to allo
cate funds to over 100 groups at
the U of O.This year by serving as
the Internal Director of
Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano
deAtzlan (MEChA),I witnessed
the amount of trouble and sacri
fices that programs face due to
lack of fiinding.These programs
are crucial to a well balanced col
lege education, because they
bring cultural and identity aware
ness, as well as provide support
here at our second home .As
PFC/Senate I will establish better
communication between Pro
grams and the organizations that
it exists to serves.We can prevent
misallocated funds and inefficient
spending by fostering better rela
tionship with PFC and the rest of
the organizations on campus.

Justin F. Zuiker
The Student Senate distributes
millions of dollars of your student
fees to a variety of student servic
es and organizations that you en
joy every day.This includes our
student union building, the EMU. I
want to run for Student Senate in
order to help preserve students'
rights in this building and the ac
tivities that occur within it. I am a
fair, honest and caring person. I
hope to have the opportunity to
represent you, the U of O student,
at the Student Senate and on the
EMU Board. I have been involved
in a number of student groups,
ranging from Speech and Debate
to the Interfraternity Council to
the Freshmen Interest Group pro
gram. From these experiences, I
realize that different student or
ganizations have different needs,
and the Student Senate is a body
that can help meet these needs. I
want to work hard with the stu
dent body to fight for students’ in
terests at the University of Ore
gon.

Board Finance Senator #4.

Andrew R. Elliot
The value of a college educa
tion is immeasurable.The cost,
however, is clear. Next year, the
students of the University of Ore
gon will be asked to pay even
more money to attend school.
Much of this money will come in
the form of the Incidental Fee.
While this increase in cost is in
many ways a predictable fact of
life, we as students deserve ac
countability concerning the mon
ey we spend.
Historically, the EMU has allo
cated money to programs and ex
penses in ways not directly ap
proved by the governing student
organizations.As a Senator and an
EMU board member, I have
worked hard to re-establish stu
dent control over the money we
spend. If elected, I will continue
in my quest to bring accountabili
ty to the EMU and to other organi
zations regarding the use of Inci
dental Fee funds.

As a current member of the
EMU Board of Directors, I am very
excited to run for EMU Board Sen
ate Seat #6 .The EMU is a great re
source for students from across
campus, and I want to ensure that
it remains a center of campus life
at the UO. In order to do this, we
have to make sure to continue to
get student involvement in every
part of the process. I was encour
aged to see so many students par
ticipate in the budget process this
year and I want to work to in
crease students’knowledge about
budgeting and the incidental fee
process .The Student Senate is re
sponsible for the allocation of our
student incidental fees and I feel
that it is very important to allo
cate our fees fairly and responsi
bly. If elected to the Student Sen
ate, I will make sure that the
disbursement of our student
funds is done in a fair and reason
able way. I am open-minded,
knowledgeable, and hardwork
ing.Vote Ben Buzbee for EMU

Students currently pay a set fee
per year to the University of Ore
gon called an Incidental Fee .A
portion of this fee is allocated to
purchase tickets for football and
men’s basketball at a discounted
price, which are then distributed
as “free’’student tickets. One of
the major roles of theAthletic De
partment Finance Committee
(ADFC) is to be the voice of the
students concerning this issue,
helping decide how many stu
dent tickets should be purchased
for what price. I am currently on
the ADFC and am working with
the other members of the com
mittee, along with the Athletic De
partment to reach a fair decision
in this matter that is beneficial for
both the students and the Athletic
Department. I would like to be re
elected to the ADFC not only be
cause I enjoy working on senate,
but also so that there will be a re
turning senator on ADFC who
cares about the issue at hand with
experience in these contract ne
gotiations. I am hard-working an
dedicated.Vote for Kate Kranzush

Dave Sanchez
Doin it a second time around.
Hello again, I am Dave Sanchez, a
junior here at the UO. I am run
ning for Senate again because I
feel that Senate plays a vital role in
our student body. Having been in
volved in theASUO for 3 years
now, I feel that I know how things
work around here and what
needs to be done. Having served
on Senate before, I already have a
feel for how the Senate works. But
also through that experience, I
have a clear vision for what needs
to be done to make Senate a more
effective body. In my opinion, Sen
ate itself has never reached its full
potential within theASUO,and
more outreach needs to be done
with theASUO programs for Sen
ate to truly embody the student
voice. I feel that there are many ar
eas of improvement within Sen
ate, and through my experience
and knowledge of theASUO, I will
help lead the Senate to a more
clear vision of student voice with
in theASUO. Re-elect Dave
Sanchez to the Student Senate.
