will go toward the group’s culture
night, she said.
PFC also nearly doubled the
budget of the Criminal Law Asso
ciation, bringing it up from $300
this year to $580 for next year.
Madden said PFC felt the increase
was justified because CLA, a first
year group, has managed its mon
ey well this year. The group plans
to use the extra money to fund
speakers’ fees and a competition
registration.fee, she said.
The Korean Student Associa
tion received the largest budget
cut, falling from $2,545 for this
year to $1,560 for next year — a
decrease of nearly 40 percent.
KSA members requested a $2,880
increase, but after examining the
group’s previous spending arid
scheduled events, PFC members
concluded the group had overes
timated its expenses.
“To be honest, (the KSA budg
et) looks a little inflated,” PFC
Programs Appointee Joe Streckert
said at the Thursday night KSA
hearing. “I hate to use that word,
but it does.”
Members generally reached a
consensus quickly, Madden said.
None of the budgets presented
this week exceeded $5,000. Three
groups — AVENU, the Latin
American and Caribbean Stu
dents Organization, and the Tai
wanese Student Organization —
failed to submit a budget and
were de-funded.
“These are all pretty small budg
ets. ... There wasn’t a lot of contro
versy or dissent,” Madden said.
“Next week will be quite different,
I imagine.”
Hearings scheduled next week
include MEChA, the ' Oregon
Voice and the Survival Center on
Monday. Tuesday’s hearing
schedule includes the Oregon
Marching Band as well as the In
ternational Resource Center,
which is the first group previous
ly funded by ballot measure to go
before PFC. Groups scheduled for
Thursday include the Oregon
Commentator, the Student Bar
Association and OSPIRG.

Museum of Art

“It’s going to completely trans
form the space,” he said.
The antiquated art storage in the
basement, or “vault,” of the muse
um and climate controls will be re
placed, and the exhibition areas
will be increased in size from 8,000
to 22,000 square feet.
“Our ambitions have always been
there — but we never had the space
to fulfill them,” Fong said.
An education wing with a studio
for University students, K-12 classes
and the general public will be estab
lished. Other new features will in
clude a museum store and cafe, and a
special events area for receptions,
lectures and fundraising activities.
“What people will appreciate ful
ly when we reopen is how far we
have advanced this museum with
collections, exhibitions and educa
tion programs,” Fong said.
McDonald said the museum —
which opened to the public in 1932
— was built in the late 1920s. And
while it was designed to be a much
larger building, the Great Depres
sion caused the museum to be built
smaller than anticipated.
The building is listed on the Na
tional Register for Historic Places,
but museum officials said its defi
ciencies in gallery space, humidity,
and electrical and environment sys
tems for preserving works have pre
vented it from being able to house*
special exhibitions.
The almost $13 million project is
still about $500,000 short of funding,
Fong said. The project is being fund
ed partly from a state bond measure
and partly through gifts from individ
uals, foundations and businesses.
Disability access was not part of
the existing museum, but the reno
vated building will be completely
accessible to persons with disabili
ties. Fong said even though the
Campbell Memorial Courtyard will
remain where it is currently locat
ed, both sides of it will have marble
ramps for disability access.
“We’ll be able to show more of our
own collection and be able to meet
the academic desires of the Universi
ty,” McDonald said, also adding that
the museum will be able to showcase
more borrowed collections than ever
before in a changing exhibition area.
University students from the fine
arts, architecture, arts and adminis
trations and art history departments
have had the unique opportunity to
practice the application of their
studies while the museum is closed,
Fong said. The museum staff is also
still running a docent program at lo
cal high schools and working on ed
ucational outreach.
“To have the museum closed is
difficult because our courses are so
much tied to the experience of art
firsthand,” said Kate Nicholson,
who heads the art history depart
ment and also serves on the muse
um’s board of directors.
But she said for students such as
those taking Museology 411, taught by
Fong this term, they are learning about
what is involved in preparing the ex
hibitions that will be featured when
the museum reopens. The museology
class teaches theories and techniques
in the operation of art museums.
Doug Blandy, director of the arts
and administration program, said
the graduate students in his program
have a unique opportunity to wit
ness a renovation firsthand before
transitioning into museum jobs.
He said students will help plan
for the opening.
“It is certainly going to be a much
improved facility,” Blandy said. “It
will be state-of-the-art in terms of
what will be provided in terms of
exhibitions and arts education.”
