and angklungs, traditional wooden
wind instruments.
Freshman Randi Albanese attend
ed the event because she is current
ly involved in a geography class
and wanted to take the opportunity
to learn about different parts of
the world.
“I thought it would be interesting,”
Albanese said. “It’s a part of the
world I don’t know about, and there
is food. ”
Unardi said Saturday was the
first time Indonesia Night was free
of charge.
“This way people want to donate
more (for tsunami relief),” Unardi
said. “The money will go to Interna
tional Red Cross.”
Everyone who donated was given
a purple lei to wear for the evening.
Angie Broeckel, who works in
the University ticket office, staffed
the donation table, making
overtures that “everyone should be
leid tonight.
Junior Anders Hansen, a member
of the International Student
Association, sat at the V.I.P. table.
“I enjoy the events,” Hansen said.
“The University has one of the largest
international student bodies. People
need to be made aware of the cultural
diversity and these nights are a good
initiative for that.”

away to do that.”
The University is exiting the
“silent phase” of the fundraising
campaign and will kick off the
second half with a Hollywood-style
gala on Saturday at the Moshofsky
Sports Center. The event, called
“Lights, Camera, Oregon!” will
include a dinner, comedy sketches
and musical performances. Bryce
Zabel, former chairman and
CEO of the Academy of Television
Arts & Sciences and a 1976 Univer
sity alumnus, will produce
the event. Actors Fred Willard and
Tim Matheson will also attend.
Individual tickets for the event cost
$200 each, and a table for eight
begins at $5,000.
Frohnmayer said he would wait
for the gala to announce “our most
exciting gift announcements.” He
said he expects the gala to draw
more than 1,000 people.
Campaign Oregon — which has
helped raise money for the con
struction of the Lillis Business Com
plex, expansion of Autzen Stadium
and numerous faculty endowments
and student scholarships — began
in January 2001 and is expected to
continue through 2008. The cam
paign has had at least 39 donors
since its inception.
Frohnmayer said the silent phase
of Campaign Oregon “established
the momentum” needed to propel
the University to its goal.
“I wouldn’t be surprised if
we make even greater progress
through the course of this week in
closing down and completing
gifts that will make the total even, I
hope, a little bit bigger than
the $300 million that we reported
this morning,” Frohnmayer said.
“So, stayed tuned. That’s the
message of the week.”

what they spend,” Henderson said.
Although the magazine requested
$11,471, Henderson said
she was happy with the final figure
and the motion to increase the
issue release budget to $500 from
the original executive recommenda
tion of $352.
The PFC defunded the Philoso
phy Club, the Pacific Wine Law
Society, the European Student Asso
ciation, and the Gaming Club. The
Coalition Against Environmental
Racism, the House of Film, the
Malaysian Students Organization,
and Model United Nations also had
their budgets axed, as did the Na
tive American Law Students Associ
ation and Pacific Club. These groups
did not turn in their budgets, PFC
member Eden Cortez said.
Some groups, such as the Model
United Nations and Philosophy
Club, had already been cut off
the incidental fee roll this year.
Cortez said groups must be defund
ed three years in a row before they
are completely eliminated from the
PFC’s list of groups that receive
incidental fees.

Budgets: PFC approves 1.26 percent increase for Senate

campus,” she said. “With an on
campus internship, students have
the opportunity to take the knowl
edge they learn in the classroom
and apply it to the real world.”
Also at Thursday’s PFC meeting,
the Sustainable Business Symposium
received a 9.7 percent increase for a
budget of $8,411. The organization is
responsible for promoting sustain
able business practices and hosting a
symposium in the spring. The in
crease was especially welcome given
the group’s ambitious aspirations.
“We’d like to create a ‘Sustain
able Business Month’ and we’re
trying to make Oregon the sustain
ability state,” SBS Project Manager
Kyle Smith said. “I know those are
lofty goals.”
The increase included money for a
fall speaker series.
The PFC also approved the ASUO
Student Senate’s budget. Some
debate arose as the PFC grappled
with what stipend the Senate vice
president and Senate ombudsman
should receive.
PFC member Khanh Le argued for
more money in the office supplies
line item for tapes to record meetings.
"We need the tapes and sometimes
we go over because people talk a
lot,” he said.
The PFC passed a $25,749 budget
for the Senate, a 1.26 percent in
crease. The budget includes addition
al money for advertising.
