The Ducks return to Autzen Stadium Oct. 19 to play Arizona State. Although the EMU Ticket Office opened at 9 a.m. to hand out the thousands of student tickets, some came as early as 5 a.m., vying for a spot at the front of the line. “We were outside for an hour with blankets,” said pre-journal ism freshman Carly Heims, one of the first people to collect a ticket when the office opened. “Then they opened the doors at 6 a.m. and we brought in chairs.” Many students in the group said they gave up sleep. “We slept three hours last night,” freshman Steve Ellsberg said. Others skipped school. “I already missed a class,” explained freshman general sci ence major Sheena Toops a few minutes before 9 a.m. “I’m smart in that class, so it’s OK.” She was still unsure, though, of what time she’d actually show up for the Saturday game. “That’s a lot of weeks away,” Toops said. “I haven’t really thought about it yet.” — Brook Reinhard Student Senate ASUO helps Kultura Pilipinas out of bind The Student Senate called an emer gency meeting Monday to review a special request that was approved dur ing last Wednesday’s meeting. The request, submitted by the Kultura Pilipinas, asked for #3,195 to host an event featuring a Filipino diplomat. The request should not have been approved, however, be cause it budgeted money to pay foi University Catering services, which requires a separate food request. Acting Senate President Kate Kranzush said the Kultura Pilipinas included the food expense in their special request, but because food ex penses require a separate food re quest, the Senate assumed the mon ey was only for other event expenses. Kranzush said separate requests are required for food and other expenses so the Senate can be more cost effective in distributing student fees. At Monday’s meeting, the Senate was three members short of the quorum required to act on a new re quest to cover food expenses. Because University Catering re quired the food order to be sub mitted on Monday, and no action could be taken at the special Sen ate meeting, ASUO President Rachel Pilliod wrote an appeal that essentially allows the ASUO Executive to front the money for the event until the Senate meets again Wednesday. If the Senate approves the ap peal, the Kultura Pilipinas will re ceive the money necessary to fund its event. If the appeal is denied, the ASUO Executive will foot the entire bill. Pilliod said she wrote the appeal because the Kultura Pilipinas was in a bind and has done much work to schedule the event. — JanMontry War continued from page 1 and delaying has come to an end,” Bush said. “Saddam Hussein must disarm himself — or, for the sake of peace, we will lead a coalition to disarm him.” Bush offered assurances to the Iraqi people that he is committed to rebuilding Iraq after Hussein’s ouster. “America is a friend of the people of Iraq. Our demands are directed only at the regime that enslaves them and threatens us,” he said. “When these demands are met, the first and greatest benefit will come to Iraqi men, women and children.” Many Americans support Bush on Iraq, but not all seem to share his sense of urgency. A New York Times/GBS News poll found that two-thirds of those surveyed said they approved of using military force to oust Hussein, but almost the same percentage wanted to give the United Nations more time to resume weapons inspections. The nationwide tele phone survey of 668 adults has a margin of error of plus or minus four percentage points. Bush faces even greater skepticism overseas, where anti-war sentiment is growing as the U.N. Security Council moves toward a decision on Iraq. Steadfast op position from France and Russia has stalled Bush’s push for a U.N. resolution that would authorize force if Iraq fails to permit tough new weapons inspections. © 2002, Knight Ridder/Tribune Information Services. Printing continued from page 1 “We were getting eaten alive by waste,” said Andrew Bonami ci, associate University librarian for instructional services. He said students would often print excessive amounts of ma terial instead of simply opening a book. Of the material printed, Bonamici estimates that nearly half would end up in recycling bins. McCoy said paper use in the EMU rises by approximately 50 percent each year. Of this, many pages printed are useless — for example, pages that only have an Internet address, McCoy said. The Knight Library decided to switch over to Campus Cash as a form of print payment this year to help streamline stu dents’ experiences, Bonamici said. Having the same system as the EMU computer lab will make the process more conven ient and less confusing for stu dents, he added. To do this, students must have Campus Cash on their stu dent ID cards to pay for the printing. When cards are swiped, the system automatical ly deducts their payments, mak ing it possible to release print jobs. Students can put Campus Gash money on their cards at the UO Card Office, the EMU Ticket Office and other loca tions on campus. Contact the reporter at jodyburruss@dailyemerald.com.
