Student Senate approves
Executive salary request
The ASUO Student Senate filled
one of its empty seats in its meeting
Wednesday night.
Jackie Lynn Ray, who served as a
senator on the Programs Finance
Committee last year, was unani
mously appointed to seat number
13. Senate President Peter Watts
said there were a lot of applicants
for the seat, but because of Ray’s
past experience, he “felt she would
be up to speed.”
Senator Mary Elizabeth Madden
agreed.
“She has a lot of knowledge about
student groups,” Madden said. “I
think she will be a great asset. ”
In other business, the senate ap
proved a special request from
ASUO Executive for $7,147 to cover
salaries for their receptionist and
temporary employee. ASUO Presi
dent Nilda Brooklyn said the em
ployees were necessary to keep the
office running efficiently.
“We need these people in the of
fice so we don’t have to spend our
time filing, copying, faxing, as well
as do the programs we do,” she said.
The Student Senate also de
nied a request for $7,500 to help
fund a traveling display com
memorating the University’s
125th anniversary.

cent cuts across the state system, with
a plan to slash nonacademic pro
grams hardest. He also said because
the University of Oregon receives
only 40 percent of its operating budg
et from state funds, programs will not
be greatly affected.
“It doesn’t mean that the cuts
won’t be painful, but we can deal
with a 6 percent cut,” he said.

Redistricting

live in Ward 5, but I live in Ward 3 —
which elected me,” said Councilor
Bonny Bettman, whose ward repre
sents most of the University and near
by housing. “So, who do I represent?”
Indigo-D would also put Coun
cilors Bonny Bettman and Gary Rayor
within the same district which would
cause one of them to be reassigned.
The law mandates that each dis
trict have equal populations. City at
torney Jim Lidz said that after redis

representing all the voters who elect

Mayor Torrey said councilors may
be letting the prospect of the 2003 elec
tion year influence their decisions.
“If none of us were running for of
fice again, would we come up with
the same map?” he said.
Councilors Bonny Bettman, Betty
Taylor, Gary Rayor and David Kelly
voted against keeping Indigo-D as an
option, while Councilors Gary Pape,
Nancy Nathanson, Pat Farr and Scott
Meisner voted for it. The council dis
carded the Green scenario, which
Nathanson said was disappointing.
“Greenhasmerits.too. It keeps togeth
er the University and downtown. It keeps
togetherthe industrial areas,” she said.
The council must redraw voter dis
tricts following population changes
measured in the 2000 Census. They
have used a set of five criteria to come
up with the proposed changes, which
includes looking at areas as commu
nities of interest. Councilor Meisner
said deciding what does and does not
define a community is not easy.
“What does Thistledown have to
do with West University? What does
Fifth and Blair have to do with
Churchill?” he said. “Communities of
interest are hard to define. ”
