She said that if Morales would have
called her the day following the al
leged incident and apologized in
stead of denying the incident oc
curred, she would not have pressed
charges.
"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."

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.
