Senators fund Night
Ride through winter
The ASUO Student Senate heard
lengthy special requests at their
weekly meeting Wednesday.
The African Student Association
requested 0300 to hold an event this
Friday and cover yearly costs. Sena
tors approved the following four mo
tions for the group’s accounts: 0150
from surplus to programming passed
16 to 1; 050 from surplus to printing
passed 9 to 8; 050 from surplus to
multicultural passed 16 to 1; and 050
from surplus to multicultural food
holding passed 16 to 1.
The Muslim Students Association
requested that $297 be released from
their food holding account to fund a
Ramadan event. The request passed
16 to 1.
The Nontraditional Student Union
came to the senate to alleviate a
billing error. Union members said
University Catering billed them be
latedly for an event, putting their
budget in deficit. Senators voted 16
to 1 to transfer #448 from surplus to
the NSA’s food account.
Night Ride came before the senate to
ask for more funding, which they need
ed to keep operating through winter
term. Since Night Ride is a new group
they could only be transferred $300.
However, since Night Ride is tech
nically still a part of Saferide, senators
said they could transfer the funds into
Saferide accounts and then transfer
them back into Night Ride.
Senators voted 14 to 2 to transfer
$670 from surplus to the Saferide dis
patch account and $58 from surplus to
the Saferide payroll assessment ac
count. The senate then voted to trans
fer the money back to Night Ride.
The Senate also voted 15 to 1 to
transfer $880 between the Night Ride
accounts. One senator abstained
from Night Ride voting because of a
conflict of interest.

Lane County
takes on new logo
Lane County adopted a new offi
cial logo Wednesday after the
Board of Commissioners voted in
favor of the image, with plans to
immediately implement and rein
force its consistent use throughout
county government.
All divisions and departments of
Lane County will be required to
use the new logo as soon as mate
rials with the old image are used
up, according to spokeswoman
Melinda Kletzok. Employee inter
est and support groups that do not
receive county funds, however,
aren’t considered a division of the
government, she said.
“If a group of employees decide
to form their own interest group,
they won’t be required to use the
county’s logo,” Kletzok said.
Board of Commissioners chair
man Bill Dwyer said that consis
tent use of the logo to clearly show
the county’s services to the public
was a primary consideration in
designing the new image.
“The use of the logo will support
citizen awareness of the county’s
government services, programs
and its added value to quality of
life,” Dwyer said.
The new logo was designed at no
cost to the county or citizens,
Kletzok said. It includes symbols
that depict the county’s abun
dance of forest land, its rich water
resources and its distinctive repu
tation for covered bridges, 17 of
which are listed in the National
Register of Historic Places.

KUGN
continued from page 1
feared Savage or Medved could sue
them and declined to give any names
during the 90-minute discussion. In
dividuals at the meeting also ex
pressed fears that they might be ver
bally attacked on-air for criticizing
the programming content of the two
talk show hosts.
A faculty member at the Universi
ty said keeping the meeting off the
record was essential to protect the at
tendees, because a civil lawsuit is ca
pable of financially destroying a per
son. He added that it was his
understanding that Savage had said
he would sue people who threatened
his radio show, “Savage Nation.”
KUGN Program Director Bob
Bosche said he has heard Savage
threaten to sue people before, but he
added filing a lawsuit is an option of
defending oneself that everyone has
the right to exercise.
“I know that Savage has said if peo
ple attack him personally, he will re
spond with legal action,” Bosche said.
Representatives for Savage did not
return phone calls, and the radio host
was unavailable for comment himself.
Bosche said there have been no in
stances of KUGN talk show hosts ver
bally attacking people at the Univer
sity by name on the air. Medved and
Savage are nationally-syndicated ra
dio personalities and rarely localize
the topic of their broadcasts, he said.
Bosche did, however, add that Lars
Larson’s show sometimes dealt with
University issues because it was lo
cally produced. The show is no
longer carried on KUGN.
The meeting on Tuesday offered a
chance for University community
members to discuss their concerns
about the University’s affiliation with
KUGN. Many participants said they
felt the affiliation with the radio station
needed to be broken because of Sav
age’s and Medved’s programming,
which they said insulted minorities.
Students are invited to voice their
opinions about the University’s affili
ation with KUGN at today’s meeting,
which is open to the public.
