The elections attracted 1036 voters or 40 percent of eligible voters, a campus record, said Senate President Steve Wright, who directed the elections. Races for senate were much more closely contested, with the final standings for education senator not becoming final until a third recount was held close to midnight.

Merilee Riggs, the P R.O. party candidate, was declared the third education senator with one vote more than fellow party member Scott Williams. Election officials made three counts to verify that race. 87 "We expected the science senators to get two out of three they were tough and I think we got two out of three on everything, Jones said. In fact, the S.U.N. party took all three science seats, with Chad Anderson, Jeff Hayes and Steve for their Johnson finishing organization. Election canvassers were faced with several ballots on which students voted both for an entire party and then candidates on the opposing party. How'ever, according to Wright, those votes made no difference on the outcome of any races. Dozens of students also voted for senators in all the schools, but only the senators in the schools of their majors were counted. The new student officers will be inaugurated in a special ceremony Saturday at the Cedars Restaurant. Cuirent members of ASSUSC student government, how'ever, remain m office until the end of w'inrer quarter.

Nuclear Free Zone proposition defeated Scott Price, left, who led the successfid fight against the Nuclear Free Zone Proposition, greets Mitch Connell, who ivas the measure's chief proponent. The proposition teas defeated by SUSC students 417-38- SUSC garnered wide media attention with the resolution to declare the campus a Nuclear Free Zone, although it was defeated by a slim 35 votes. Total votes against the proposal were 417, while votes for the proposal were 382. Students may have been surprised to find themselves part of a Salt Lake Citv television newscast Wednesday night. The Salt Lake Tribune and Deseret Neus both carried coverage of the resolution's fate, along with KFI, a Los Angeles radio station. With the press coverage weve gotten, weve succeeded whether we win or not because people identify our campus with the nuclear freeze movement, said Mitch Connell, coordinator of student affairs and author of the bill. KUTV News sent a film crew to the SUSC campus yesterday and interviewed the leading proponents and opponents of the proposal. The hill was introduced to the student senate late in January by Bill Honeck and unsuccessful presidential candidate Stuart Rilev, who later withdrew his sponsorship. The bill immediately drew opposition from ASSUSC President Scott Price who told senators it didnt belong in the constitution. The proposed amendment would have declared the campus a nuclear free zone in which no research deployment or development of nuclear weapons.. .shall take place. Connellintroduced the bill as a means of in involved stuoents political issues. getting Senate President Steve Wright, who spoke against senate passage of the resolution, said he was happy about the result. thought this was sending the wrong kind of message, Wright said. I felt' we needed to support the president (Reagan) and his (arms) negotiations, and I thought this weakened the negotiations. Connell said, however, that he thought its more important to be on the right side 1 than the winning side. At least weve done whats right. "I think for as conservative as this campus is, this did very well, he added. Connell and Price debated the resolution in an open forum Feb. 18 and they came to a consensus that SUSC ask a college or university in Russia to pass a similar measure if the resolution passed here. The resolution had also dictated the student leaders of the college convey the colleges opposition to nuclear war to the leaders of the Soviet Union and United States. The proposal was also linked recently to the issue of above-grounnuclear testing and the alleged effects of radioactive fallout on residents of southern Utah. During the public forum debate on the resolution, Janet Gordon, who headed an organization to call attention to the effects of nuclear testing, said that was the major issue surrounding the proposal. d |
