"He knows what he did," Hass said. "I know what he did ... My best friend saw what he did. He knows what he did, because I wouldn't make some thing like that up." I lass said Morales hired a "private in vestigator" to follow her around and talk to her friends and roommates. Eddy Morales ASUO vice president "I wasn't pre pared for that at all," Hass said. "I didn't like my privacy to be in vaded like that." Morales would not (comment on Hass' allega tion that he hired a private investigator. A S U O spokeswoman Taraneh Foster said ASUO would not comment on the issue because it could not take sides in the case. "I think as soon as an organization that's supposed to speak on behalf of all students speaks on behalf of only one student then you're kind of run ning into problems," Foster said. "We're not the ones that were in volved in the situation. It didn't hap pen in the ASUO. It's not something that even hits us. It hasn't affected any of our programming. It never came into our office. We did not ever go and interact with it. We've always been outside of it." Contact the campus/federal politics reporter atjaredpaben@dailyemerald.com. continued from page 1 compromise and moved to use $ 150,000 to reduce the fee. Sen. Joe Jenkins argued the amount the Senate could reduce the incidental fee wouldn't be substantial enough — only $2 to $4 — to justify spending the overrealized fund on it especially con sidering how much students pay in tu ition each year. "The only way it's going to be sym bolic is when the Emerald reports that we lowered the incidental fee," he said. However, Andries argued that the money he could save "could buy me a beer at Rennie's." Harding echoed this comment say ing, "over the course of the year, it's not just a beer, it's a case of beers, or maybe a quarter of a textbook." Gilmore's motion was later amend ed to use $200,000 to reduce the inci dental fee and was passed, 14-1-1. The Senate also listened to a proposal from the University Health Center to ban tobacco sales at Erb Essentials, the only venue on campus that still sells to bacco products. While the Senate could not vote on the issue during the meet ing, an intense debate ensued around "Personally, I believe that we should return the money to students... (and show that) the Senate is committed to lowering the costs on campus." Mike Sherman Senate ombudsman the validity of such a policy. Peer Health Educator and junior political science major Adrianne Gee argued that such a move would have a great impact on campus, adding that a smoker's habit not only affects them, but everyone around them. "Environmental smoke is a prob lem on campus ... It's not just some thing that affects smokers, it affects us all," she said. Former Peer Health Educator and junior political science major Rebekah Lebwohl argued that the economic benefits of tobacco sales do not out weigh the damage tobacco causes, cit ing examples such as a fire caused by a careless smoker at Theta Chi's fraternity house last summer and premature deaths from tobacco use "Revenue from tobacco sales does not outweigh the cost of tobacco smoke," she said. "We do not want our campus to support an industry that's killing people." The Senate also voted unanimously to release $346 to the Muslim Student Associ ation's food holding account for its "Islam in America" series next week. PERMIAS, an Indonesian student group, submitted a request to trans- ^ fer $500 from its food holding ac count back into its fundraising ac count. The ASUO Executive received ^ money for the Association of An thropology Graduate Students to pay for lodging for Dr. Bea Medicine, a speaker the group is bringing to campus.
