"What do you think about the proposal to remove the minority and 'special constituency/student senate seats?" "I actually don't agree with it. Because this is Weber State, you don't want to just have just normal traditional students here, you want to have everybody from different backgrounds. It's a university, you come here for diversity and I know a lot of universities try to show aface of every different kind ofbackground, showing that the university really is rounded, and that it's diverse. If you take tluit away from the senators, then you can't really call it a diverse university." . 'If it saves more money and it does it just as efficiently or even better, I would be for it. If they Itad a committee {to represent them], as long as they kept it a small number of people it will work efficiently. The way it is now, you have to bounce back and forth if you're covered by more than one and that's not efficient, it would take up more time." - Jessica Reeder, WSU zoology/political science freshman - Joseph Barney, WSU telecommunications senior "J think it's important to have many different ones. You do need to make sure that you have enough to represent everybody. You should combine a few, but not all into one so that you have less, but everybody still has a voice." '7 don't think it would be such a good idea. Maybe a few students would have, like a double voice, but what about the students that are undecided? I like it better with more people because then you get more perspectives even though you'd Iiave a lot more disagreement." •WSU's Executive Lecture Series featuring Angela Feichko, Coldwell Banker associate broker; 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.; WSU-Davis Campus Barnes Bank Lecture Hall, 2750 N.
