night at #3,245,160 for the 2003-04
school year, a 7 percent increase.
Chairwoman Christa Shively pre
sented the board’s budget proposal
and said that increases in the pro
grams’ budgets were focused in
salaries, other payroll expenses and
the inclusion of a new budget for
Equipment Reserve.
Seven budgets were funded to
maintain current service levels —
University Scheduling, the EMU
Ticket Office, EMU Event Services,
the Craft Center, the Child Care and
Development Center, Club Sports
and the Outdoor Program.
Four EMU program budgets were
given line item modifications to allow
the board to fund growth for a staff po
sition in the Cultural Forum — EMU
Administration, EMU Facilities, the
EMU Board and the Cultural Forum.
The Community Internship Pro
gram brought a grievance before the
senate, but ombudsman Andy Elliott
said the complaint lays outside the
senate’s jurisdiction. A representa
tive for GIP brought to light the fact
that two people from the program’s
office were not receiving stipends
because of an accounting error made
by last year’s ASUO Programs Fi
nance Committee. Senate members
said they were concerned about
GIP’s grievance, but Elliott said they
did not have the authority to act on
the complaint. Instead, the senate
recommended that GIP speak with
ASUO Accounting Coordinator Jen
nifer Creighton.
The senate voted on five special
requests Wednesday night.
PFG received its request of $69 to
cover deficits in the committee’s
long distance and printing and dupli
cation line items.
The senate voted to give the
Women’s Center a loan of $6,000 to
help the group fund Lesbopalooza,
with up to $1,500 of that loan being
forgivable. Representatives from the
group said they engaged in several
fundraising events to help fund Les
bopalooza before going to senate.
Representatives for the group also
said they expect to make at least
#4,800 from ticket sales for Les
bopalooza, and they were confident
they will be able to pay back the
#6,000 loan by April 15.
The African Student Association ap
peared before the senate to ask for sev
eral hundred dollars to help finance a
dance party they were planning. How
ever, ASA was zero-funded for the cur
rent school year, and the senate had al
ready given the group #300 to help
members get the program back on its
feet. In addition, more than #200 re
mained in the group’s fundraising ac
count, so the senate voted to only
transfer #50 to ASA’s printing and du
plication line item.
In the final special request of the
evening, senate voted to transfer
#350 from an October conference
account to a March conference ac
count for the Oregon Law Students
Public Interest Fund.
