Becky Hostetler, former vice president of Student Govern ment, resigned from office July 2, 1987, following continued conflict with other ASG members. Hostetler expressed she was forced out by the executive cabinet consisting of Neale Frothingham, ASG president; Dana Dumolt, former assistant to the president and currently vice president; B.J. Blumenkron, entertainment of ficer; Ann Haller,former ad ministrative assistant, and cur rently assistant to the president. The executive cabinet asked Hostetler to resign based on the following concerns as stated in a memo by Frothingham: ir responsibility, unreliability, not being dependable, and lack of academic study. Hostetler is angry about these charges, “I full filled my job to what it was in the commitment. I didn’t fullfill my job to Neale’s standards...my stan dards and priorities are dif ferent than theirs (executive cabinet).” Before Hostetler resigned a few meetings were held to find a solution to the problems. “I felt Staff Writer Associated Student Govern ment approved a proposal to in crease fines for college parking violations from $3.00 to $5.00. “The increase is necessary to increase the Student Emergency Loan Fund,” said Neale Frothingham, ASG President. One-half of all revenue raised from parking citations goes into the fund. The increase must be approved by the Motor Vehicle Regulations Committee, composed of three students and three staff members. The Student Emergency Loan Fund is currently approximately $8,500, according to Kathleen Scheer, Financial Aid Coor dinator. As of Oct. 2, 48 students have borrowed from the fund this term, mostly to purchase text books, said Scheer. The max imum amount loaned is $50. Scheer said because the proposed parking fine increase is an ASG matter, she would not comment on the proposal. However, due to credit re quirements, Hostetler would have been removed from office if she hadn’t resigned. The Student Government constitution says, “an official must complete a minimum of three credits in order to appeal.” Hostetler completed two credits during spring term, which gave her no rights to ap peal. “I just wish that the com munication would have been bet ter...only being one side of the coin I couldn’t change it,” Frothingham said to explain his feeling that this was a com munications gap. Hostetler doesn’t have a posi tion at ASG, but still helps out as a volunteer. “Neale had said at the time that I wouldn’t make a good officer, but a good senator. That proves my whole point. As senator I only could help out,” Hostetler concluded. “She has skills to do the job of a senator, but can’t be a constructive member of the cabinet,” Frothingham said. Dumolt sworn in by E.A. Berg Staff Writer Dana Dumolt, 18, was sworn in as Associated Student Government Vice-President Parking fees elevated by E.A. Berg saying I was sorry was the only way to stay vice president. I didn’t feel what I did was wrong. To stay in office I felt I had to rearrange my priorities,” Hostetler said. Dana Dumolt, new ASG Vice President. Sept. 29.
