ASUO completes first round of goal statements student group mission and goal statements, required for fonding, must include an anti discrimination statement Jan Montry Campus/Federal Politics Reporter The ASUO Programs Finance Committee has completed the first round of mission and goal statement hearings for student groups. PFC approved a majority of state ments Monday, making only minor changes to a few groups. Seven mission and goal state ments were tabled because they did n’t meet satisfactory PFC standards. Separate hearings will be set for each tabled statement. Student group mission and goal statements — which are required for funding — outline the groups’ mis sions and what kind of goals or events the group plans to accom plish. These statements are required to include an anti-discrimination statement and a legal compliance statement stating they operate with in state and federal laws governing fee-funded groups. According to the Clark Document, the mission and goal statements must also meet a state law authoriz ing the Oregon State Board of Higher Education to collect student fees to fund only those programs that pro mote the “cultural and physical de velopment of students.” Monday’s session was one of many PFG-related meetings that will take place during the annual incidental fee allocation process that sets student group budgets for the next school year. Last year, student fees funded more than $8 million in programs and services, almost $4.3 million of which was distributed by PFC. After mission and goal statements are all approved, the PEG will begin examining budgets for individual student groups and programs. The committee has already ac cepted proposals from groups with budgets less than $7,000, and will soon take proposals from larger student groups. Specific PFC hear ings to debate proposals start in January. “I think our goal as a committee is to abide by our policies and maintain an equal decision basis for all groups,” PFG chairwoman Kate Shull said. PFG Executive Appointee Mike Martell agreed. “I just want the student fees to be al located the best way possible,” he said. The annual PFG budget hearing process may not be easy for many students to follow, but the outcome affects how millions of dollars in stu dent incidental fees are distributed to programs. Each year, student groups are as signed a PFG member as a “tag” to communicate between PFG and the group. These tags meet with the groups to help them develop a pro gram budget, which is then submit ted back to PFC for approval. “We try to compromise over an ac ceptable budget between the tag and the group,” Martell said. He added that PFC then debates those proposals. Next, the budgets move to the ASUO Student Senate for approval. After debate and approval in the senate, the budgets must receive fi nal approval from ASUO President Rachel Pilliod, University President Dave Frohnmayer and Oregon University System Chancellor Richard Jarvis.

Myers said he has a filter on his computer, but he still receives about 10 pieces of spam per day. The Department of Justice Web site offers some tips on how to re duce the amount of spam users re ceive. The most effective way to keep e-mail addresses private is by not subscribing to listservs or enter ing chat rooms. Also, if users read the private policies of Web sites, they may be able to discern whether or not their e-mail address will be kept private. Some users keep two different e-mail accounts — one for personal use which is not given out, and one they use to subscribe to certain fea tures available on the Internet. If users receive an e-mail scam, they may forward it to the Depart ment of Justice consumer hotline or the Federal Trade Commission. Contact the reporter atjodyburruss@dailyemerald.com.

Broadcast continued from page 1 addressed to each other. Both organizations blamed the other, alleging that neither was willing to compromise. “It is an ABC television broad cast,” Chambers told OSU Director of Athletics Bob De Carolis in a fax. “Because KEZI is the producer of this game, we are responsible for what goes on the air. It is unreason able for Oregon State to dictate the announcers for this telecast, and it is our First Amendment right to choose our station voices.” The game, however, is being played in Corvallis, which prompt ed De Carolis to request a Beaver branded broadcast booth. “It is our position, along with the Pac-10 Conference, that Oregon State is the television rights-hold er,” De Garolis said in a letter to Chambers. “We disagree ... that KEZI is the producer of the game ... Oregon State has the rights to the game and therefore would con tract for production.” KEZI countered Monday, offering to split air time between its regular Duck personalities and OSlfs an nouncers. KEZI also suggested neu tral announcers call the game. OSU rejected both options until Tuesday. Now, with the agreement in place, fans will be able to see the game in stead of ABC’s scheduled contest featuring UCLA and USC.. “If they didn’t resolve it,” Univer sity junior Paul DiGregorio said, “I would have been ticked.” Contact the news editor at bradschmidt@dailyemerald.com. mm mioni 199 E. 5th Ave >(541)484-1334 Sushi on the conveyor Variety of sushi, sashimi, and chef specials starting at $1.50 015103 • Lunch special: • box • Tempura • Teriyaki • Udon • Yakisoba • Katsu • Variety of sea food salad • To go available • and more Lunch Mon-Fri 11:30 - 2:30 Dinner Mon-Sat 5:00-10:00 Sunday Closed UNIVERSITY OF OREGON CULTURAL FORUM PRESENTS FRIDAY SHOW BEGINS AT8:OOPM F QUESTION AND ANSWER I WITH MS.
