Aaron Titus and Jeff Neu, both past Assembly members who had appealed the passage of the annual Associated Students of the University of Utah's budget, have withdrawn the appeal from ASUU Supreme Court review. Titus and Neu had alleged the ASUU General Assembly meeting decisions were carried out without the minimum necessary members. They also said proxy voters, who stood in for elected officials, were illegal because they did not fill out an official voting record "Since the original vote, three more proxies handed in a voting record, meaning they actually did have a quorum present," Titus said. "Jeff and I felt it was in the best interest of the students and for ASUU to not paralyze their budget. It wouldn't be fair for the students." ng 2003-200- Assembly is run.

Several years ago, a program he designed took the calculations out of determining radiation doses. A physician just electronically targets a tumor and the program will compute the prescribed dosage. The program has been adopted nationally and has significantly improved radiation therapy. More recently, he designed a program to improve the electron flow in machines which kill tumors with radiation. As a patient lies on a treatment table, the machine pivots around them shooting electrons at different angles to the same target in the body. Leavitt's program allows for a more uniform dosage of electrons. These are aspects of patient care that physicians must rely on technicians to handle. akirk9chronicle.utah.edu |
