When enrollment exceeds projections, the money goes into a reserve fund that now has about $200,000 in it. Ben Lowe, ASUU president, believes that the reserve money should be made available for use during the year it was obtained. "We feel strongly that they should see the results of it, but it is very difficult for us to get that out," he said. In order to get money out of the reserve fund, a club presents a bill to the Student Senate and General Assembly with specific plans for the money. Changing this policy will require a change in Redbook, something else that needs to be approved by the Senate and Assembly. ASUU is also some of the things that it funds, such as class schedules and tutoring, to determine whether or not it should continue funding them and if they could be funded in other ways. The current ASUU budget appropriates $5,000 to produce printed copies of class schedules and $8,250 to provide low-cotutoring. The Finance Board would like to have the U fund those things. "Whether we fund it or not, they'll keep doing it," Lowe said, referring to the class schedules. Once appropriated, the money ought to be spent wisely in the eyes of the Finance Board. Broadbent has asked the Executive Cabinet to be responsible in spending its money, and do what it can to save funds. "I think the Cabinet understands that these funds are limited.

As part of the Truth in Funding campaign promise from the current administration, the Finance Board is also keeping a very close watch on how all money is spent. At the end of the year, the administration intends to publicize these expenditures. Lowe also hopes to change mandating that all subsequent administrations publicize their expenses. "We're basically providing a system of accountability," Lowe said. The clubs and organizations to whom ASUU provides money are also more accountable for their Red-boo- k, expenditures. The Assembly appropriates money to organizations for specific purposes, and the board plans to audit these groups to ensure that they spend the money for those purposes. "I have pleaded with people who have received funds to use them in a responsible manner," Broadbent said. The Assembly has $34,000 that it can spend on the organizations on campus. Already, the Assembly is down to $10,000, with many other groups still requesting funds. As ASUU saves money from these things, it hopes to be able to spend more money on the campus clubs and organizations, as well as increase the operating budgets of the Executive Cabinet, which have been decreased since last academic and tell people I disagree with them when they make negative remarks about the LGBT community."

He will present a typology of contemporary immigrants as a prelude to introducing the second generation. He will argue that it is the second generation, not the first, that is most likely to determine the long-tereffects of contemporary immigration on American society. Professor Portes will examine the growth and composition of the new immigrant generation, the obstacles that its members confront on the way to successful integration, and the resources that immigrant families and communities bring to bear to produce successful outcomes among their offspring. He will introduce the concept of "segmented assimilation" as a useful way of thinking about these differences and highlight its significance for future policies dealing with immigration and m ,.
