New officers propose budget hike by Loretta Park News Editor The 1986-87 student senate has met several times in the past weeks to determine next year's budget and goals. "We are the ones who have to live with it," said Jonathan Wright, ASWSC president-elect. The total proposed increase for next year is $13,900. The current ASWSC budget is $154,600. Next year's proposed budget is $168,500. Some programs will be cut and some will be added, according to Scott Baxter, newly elected vice president for academk .-.f fairs. ASWSC will receive $5.55 per quarter out of the full-time (12-18 credit hours) student fees of $75. This is an increase of $.30 from this year. One item the new senators are considering is increasing the executive officers' stipend for summer quarter from $300 to $900. The three officers receive $900, plus a tuition waiver for fall, winter and spring quarters. The stipend is based on performance and is approved by the student senate advisors, Wright said. "There are two reasons for the proposed increase. The first is to give the same access and commitment to summer students from the executive officers," Wright said. "And, the second is to compensate for the heavy workload in the summer to prepare for fall quarter." There are no proposals to increase the ASWSC senators' stipends of $100 a month per quarter. Senators also earn their stipends based on their performance."If they can justify an increase, they should do it," said Baxter, "but based on a review with the senate and material that was brought forward, they expressed no interest in an increase." Other proposed items accounting for the increased budget include awarding the convocations chair a stipend and tuition waiver and the addition of an executive assistant and a public relations chair to the staff of the executive officers. The public relations chair would also receive a tuition waiver. The executive assistant will set up appointments for the executive officers, interview students for positions on various committees, conduct research, and make presentations. "After the campaign was over we visited over a dozen classes and interviewed over 30 people for various positions," said Wright. "It was one to two days of glory after the campaign, but since then, it has been all work," he said. The new officers have visited various classes on (See OFFICERS on page 3) Case closed Peek-a-boo isn't just a children's game any more. The game has taken on a new meaning, with some adults adding their own variations. Some women have told WSC police that, after showering, they have come back into the women's locker room and found a man sitting on a bench watching them. Police believe this is the same man who watches swimmers in the Swenson Gym pool from a window below water level. Police Chief Lee Cassity said the man is thought to masturbate while watching the swimmers. Cassity said he was told one reason for this type of behavior is that these actions are uncontrollable urges the person cannot help but do them. Cassity also said that, with summer fast approaching, chances of catching this man are slim as sunbathers and other avenues will be available for him to pursue his interests.It is also reported that another man, described as an "albino," has been propositioning men in the steam room, and sometimes in the locker room as well. Police said undercover decoys were deployed in hopes that this man would approach them, but attempts at apprehending him have been unsuccessful.Cassity said these incidents are not an unusual. They occur on and off throughout the year. NCAA violation non-existent by Chris J. Miller Managing Editor Weber State officials feel that the case is closed on alleged NCAA violations concerning their track invitationals. The Saturday, May 10th issue of the Ogden Standard Examiner reported that awards from the two high school invitational track meets which were co-sponsored by Weber State College were later given to high school students at another high school track meet. Those who handed out the awards were not affiliated with Weber State College. "Our position is that we didn't break the rule," said WSC athletic director Gary Crompton concerning the incident. "I don't feel we violated the rule. We literally disposed of the awards. As far as the NCAA, we didn't break the rules." The entire situation deals with Regulation 46, (the "tryout rule" of the NCAA rules), which prohibited schools from holding events for high school students and giving out awards beginning in January. The rule applies only to NCAA colleges and universities. WSC men's track coach Chick Hislop (See WILDCATS on page 13) |
