PFC: Proposal for increase not discussed
Continued from page 1
PFC member Khanh Le seconded
the motion.
“When we give money to groups
for advertising, it usually goes to
ODE, which is another student-run
group. So, it is benefiting students,”
he said.
Finally, after passionate debate
and inquisition, PFC approved a
budget of $111, 992, a 6.9 percent
decrease from last year’s budget,
which was the executive recom
mendation. The Emerald had re
quested $125,000, a 3.8 percent in
crease. However, the proposal for
the increase was not discussed
during the hearing.
In addition, Sudick said the Emer
ald had never received its executive
recommendation. The document is
to be available 24 hours before a
group’s hearing, according to the
ASUO Programs Budget Packet, and
was promised to be completed 72
hours prior to the hearing, according
a Nov. 10 e-mail to all PFC fee-funded
programs from ASUO Vice President
Mena Ravassipour and ASUO
Finance Coordinator Mike Martell.

You’re running a little late for class ...
It’s dark, cold, raining...
The bus should be here any minute, but
There is NO BUS !!

LTD management wants you to think that your
bus operator is to blame if LTD workers go on
strike. Yet, it is LTD mismanagement that will
cause a strike because...
• LTD management declared to the mediator that
negotiations were over and impasse was reached,
not your bus operators...
• LTD management is the one insisting that the cooling off
period be limited to 30 days.
• LTD management is sitting on $21 million in reserves
($8 million in operations alone...) yet, it is pleading poverty to
the press.
• Despite LTD being financially “fat” LTD management’s
implementation of its final position will cram 17 takeaways
down its worker’s throats.
Your bus operators do not want to strike.
But, LTD management takeaways will cost their families
thousands of dollars over the next three years...
.- ------- -—
What is it your bus operator actually wants?
Not much, just a one or two year contract, management’s choice.
And to either keep the existing contract or reduce the wage
increase to 2%.
The time to stop a strike is before it happens.
If there is a strike, Ken Hamm LTD’s general manager, will
continue to collect his $123,500-a-year salary, so will his
management underlings.
In contrast, your bus operator will not be earning money and
you will not have the transportation you need. Ask yourself “Who
is really causing [and wants] the strike?”
A strike will not happen if LTD passengers and business
sponsors tell LTD to behave responsibly and work with its bus
operators to develop a fair contract. The U of O’s representative
on the LTD Board of Directors is Mr. Michael Eyster
mevster@oregon.uoregon.edu. Let him know your concerns.
