Adjournment MINUTES SENATE MEETING #30 February 28, 1978 Lounge 202 Moyer Student Union Building I. Call to Order The thirtieth meeting of the Consolidated Student Senate was called to order by Chairman Ken Holt at 4:15 p.m. in Lounge 202 of the Moyer Student Union Building. II. Roll Call Members in Attendance: Dawn DuCharme Lise Wyman Bob Biale DeAnn Turpen John Dunkin Ingrid Ilegedus Scott Hoover Lorraine Alderman Leon Levitt No absenses. III. Approval of Minutes #29 After the following changes were corrected: Page 2, 5th paragraph, "Dr. Baepler said it could not be changed last semester" instead of "It could not be done this year" and page 2, 6th paragraph, Gretchen Smith corrected her question regarding the Host Fund Expenditures to, "Why it was different frcm the last time it was reported" and not "did not show who had been entertained", the minutes were approved. IV. Executive Board Announcements a. Treasurer's Report (EMERGENCY ITEM) John Hunt reported he had a call frcm Jim Dropp, Deputy Controller, who informed him that,because of the over capacity that has taken place in the Day Care Center, they have had to hire extra people and the wages account has gone over the budget and it is now in the red. In order to pay the extra people, the budget has to be adjusted and expanded. For informational purposes, John explained what he wants to do is expand the budget to $4,400 (he made the error of stating $4,040 during the discussion instead of quoting $4,400 as he first quoted) to the Day Care Account under Wages and Fringes. The children enrolled in the Day Care Center has increased to 108 instead of 20 and 30 last semester. Activitie's Board John then reported that in order to keep the activities going,(on the budget it shows that they were supposed to generate $20,000 and they have already generated $22,000 but it's ironic because of the fact that even if you generate over your budget, they won't let you use that money) the budget has to be expanded by $5,000 each semester. He explained the money is there but they won't let them use it. He further explained that originally the budget was $120,000 and they took out $20,000 generated — so in order for the Activities Board to use this money they have generated over the $20,000, the budget has to be expanded by $5,000 each semester. Gretchen Smith Dave Bergen Jerry Gatch Bruce Bayne Chuck White Cindy Riser Richard Simms Bill Botos Peggy Burnham Greg McKinley Rob Nielsen Susana Reyes Gene Russo (excused lateness) Don Soderberg Andre' Bell Joe Matvay Minutes - Senate Meeting #30 February 28, 1978 Page 2 Year Book Account John reported that the Year Book account was in the red about $8,000 because they had encumbered the book and wages. He stated that $2,500 had been put in the account for operating expenses and that the original budget had been $10,000 plus $5,000 generated — but because there was no year book editor in October, the budget was adjusted to take that money away. Mr. Westfall and Mr. Dropp advised him that, in order to wipe that account clean and in order for it to be funded,(the money is still there and they have the money to fund it) the year book account should be transferred into the General Expenditure Account and all expenditures for the year book would be documented to show it would be ccming out of the general expense account because the Yearbook account shows they are in the red. CXit of State Travel Account The last item that John reported on was an oversight in the budget for the Out-of-State Travel. Every account was supposed to have an out-of-state account but the business office won't allow that and want it all in one account under "general expenses". So all the out-of-state travel account, Day Care, Yell, Activities, CSUN, etc., will be ccming out of the $4,000 under the general expense account. There is an out-of-state account that has never been touched and they will just take the money out of that account and transfer it to the general expense account instead of setting up a separate account in each area. Host Fund Report John was asked about the report on the Host Fund that was on the Agenda and he said he misunderstood and didn't know they wanted a report. Ken Holt said he thought that was his mistake as he thought Gretchen wanted a report of the Host Fund as it has been done in the past on the agenda. She had merely asked the question as to why it was different from the last time it was reported. b. University College Senate Seat Ken reported that he had had five(5) other applicants ccme down to his office after reading the newspaper about this University College seat being open. A few of those people are in the rocm, so when this item ccmes up later in the agenda, he would like the senate to take that into consideration. c. Book Drop Locations Ken reported that Andre1 Bell had brought it to his attention that there is a problem regarding the book drop locations for the library and he thought it would be something for the senators to question the students about to see if there really is a problem. Andre' reported that there is no book drop near the science building and wondered if one could be placed at the Juanita Greer White Hall, or transfer the one down by the PE building closer to the science building. Ken said that we may have to buy another book drop. Senate Meeting Minutes #30 February 28, 1978 Page 3 d. CSUN Senate Meeting Dates Proposal Ken reported that he would like to explain to the new senators how they once ran into problems with every other week Senate meetings because, particularly, the Activities would ccme up with contracts that would need an okay and it would be a month before they could get a contract, so there were problems with having Senate meetings every other week. He reported that we have developed problems with having a Senate meeting every week also. (1). With this open meeting law, it is very difficult to get an agenda out as it is almost impossible for the secretary to type up the minutes when she doesn't get out of here until two hours after she is supposed to have been off, plus the secretary runs up a lot of ccmp time and it is really difficult to get the minutes and agenda out within the open meeting time limit for posting. Ken then said what he would like to propose before the Senate is a change in structure of the Senate meetings. What this would involve would be every other week having a regular Senate meeting with a full agenda where they could have open discussions, old and new business. Every other week would be a shortened agenda of carmittee reports only. This way they could get input frcm all of the carrmittees and the carmittee chairman would be responsible for giving the report every other week. It would help keep the ccmmittees active and on their toes, If a contract came up for activities for approval, if it is submitted at the regular Senate meeting, it could still be approved during the shortened agenda because it would be placed on that agenda. He asked that the Senate take this into consideration and think about it and it will be on the agenda at the next meeting for discussion. V. Qpen Discussion Gretchen Smith reported that some time ago she was asked to be on the Senate Information Carmittee and right now she is the only person on that carmittee. Ken asked if anyone was interested in being on that carmittee, to please get with Gretchen. Bill Botos reminded everyone about getting their pictures taken for the Epilogue. They will be taking pictures again on Wednesday, March 1, for those who still haven't had theirs taken. Joe Matvay wanted to know if we had to pay Neil Slocum for this meeting since he was not there. Ken answered Yes as Mr. Slocum was ill. Tim McRoberts announced there was to be a meeting of the Radio Board on Friday, March 3, at 2:00 p.m. for anyone having any input for the progranming. At this time, they have to get the progranming in the works. John Dunk in asked if there would be anything about this in the paper and Tim said not this week but the follaving week. VI. Carmittee Reports a. Activities Board Greg MoKinley submitted the Gene Marvin contract in the absence of Steve Francis. He told about the Washington's Birthday dance they had last Saturday night and the Sadie Hawkin's dance for this Saturday. Minutes - Senate Meeting #30 February 28, 1978 Page 4 b. Union Board Gene Russo reported that he just returned fran a meeting with the architect and everything is going along well. They are now in the final stages and will start construction about the end of May. He asked the Senate if anyone had any information regarding a clock that was stolen last Saturday, it would be greatly appreciated. c. Election Board This report will be on the agenda next week. Maria DeLuca has submitted the By-Laws. d. By-Law Comnittee Bruce Bayne reported that the Travel Clause Ccrmuttee submitted their proposal and hopefully they will be approved next week. A Rough draft of the Senate work load was submitted this week and they are working on that. Ken asked if there were any carmittee reports that he may have omitted frcm the agenda, and if not, he would like to move on to the next item on the agenda. VII. Old Business 1. Dorm vending machine allocation of revenue to Dorm Association There was a motion and seconded for approval. Then opened for discussion. Scott reported he had a meeting with Dr. Glennen and Dr. Cassese the other day and both gentlemen heartily approve of the vending machine proposal that we have submitted for your approval. He also had a meeting with Dr. Baepler and he also endorsed the project 100% as acting Chancellor. If it is passed by this body, it will then be passed by the Board of Regents and the dorm students will have an activities account for the first time. Chuck asked Dr. Cassese about the allocation of $1,800 going to the dorm association and Dr. Cassese replied that they were not allocating anything. That whatever revenue is generated by the vending machines in the dorm will then go to the dorm account — or this special account. The dorm is a self-supporting entity . He can buy a pool table and not a girl in the dorm will want to use a pool table but it is generally associated with everybody in the dorm, but he can't spend $500.00 to send five kids somewhere. There are restrictions on the money. There is a tremendous amount of money to play with, but there is no way he can detour it out. There is plenty of money, but there is no way he can get at it. New that the vehicle is here to get it loose, this will be a big help. Chuck asked how the dorm was going to expend the funds and Scott said he felt it was not up to this body to administer seme restrictions as to how the dorm can expend the funds as it is in the resolution very clearly that the dorm money is to be administered by the director of student services which would be Dr. Cassese in this instance and the students who are executive officers on the dorm board. If the Board of Regents disagrees with that, then they can cone up with their own proposals. Scott called for the question as Ex Officio in the constitution when he was challenged by Chuck White. Dr. Cassese upheld Scott's right. The call to the question was seconded and voted upon and went directly on the motion of the vending machine allocation revenue to the dorm association. Motion passed. Minutes - Senate Meeting #30 February 28, 1978 Page 5 2. Presidential Nominations (Vote) a. By-Law Ccrrmittee 1. Marshall Willick 2. Lillie Rancher There was a question as to hew many seats were open on the By-Law Ccrrmittee and it proved to be only one (student-at-large). There was also another question as to the name of Marshall Willick being added to the Presidential Nominations for the By-Law Committee when the name of Lillie Rancher was the only name recorded in the minutes of Senate Meeting #29. Ken said he wasn't certain how it came about but he had written his name down in his notes to be added to the list. He asked for a motion to table this vote until next week in order for him to check and find out about Marshall Willick's. Motion made, seconded and passed with two against. 3. CSUN Filing and Election dates (vote) a. Filing - March 20-thru March 24 Primary - April 5 - 6 General - April 19 - 20 Motion made to accept these dates and seconded. After a short discussion, motion passed. 4. Student Survey Questions (Vote) Scott spoke to the Senate about the list of questions that had been sutmitted by Mark Peplowski as requested last week. He reported that the list consisted of approximately 34 questions and they need to strike out about five from the survev. An open discussion then followed to determine which questions should be deleted and dissatisfaction in the wording of seme, why certain questions regarding student government, senate and registration had not been included. Scott finally interrupted the discussion after so many changes and suggestions had been made to announce that he had received only one suggestion frcm Jim Rafferty and not one from the Senate when he had asked them to make a list of questions or suggestions prior to this list being drawn up by Peplowski. He said this list was not going to be delayed any longer. Chuck White suggested forming a Senate ccrrmittee to re-word seme of the questions. Then Scott read a letter that he had written to Chuck White, Bill Benjamin, Gene Russo, Ingrid Hegedus that was written on August 3, 1977 for a survey ccrrmittee. He announced that Chuck White was the only person who did not show up for this committee without being excused. Chuck's reply was to the effect that a Senator could no longer be appointed to a ccrrmittee without asking him, and,also, he was a new Senator at the time and he wasn't aware of what was going on, etc. A motion was finally made by Gene Russo to approve the survey and seconded with the following questions deleted: Questions No. 2 - 9 - 11 - 23 - 27 - 28. The #19 erased. Question No. 5 to be relocated. Discussion followed until there was a cal± to the question which proved 14 for, 8 against and 3 abstentions. The motion to approve the survey proved 14 for, 9 against, 2 abstentions. Motion passed. 5. Senate Seat Nominations (Vote) a. University College Senate Seat (Vote - 1 seat) Greg McKinley announced that an article had appeared in the paper regarding the Senate seat opening and, as a result, five people had submitted resume's, so he suggested they should be allowed to be included in the vote. The names sutmitted Minutes - Senate Meeting #30 February 28, 1978 Page 6 as additions to the list were: 1) Mike Chase, 2) Kiirm Phillips, 3) John Scott, 4) Greg Bowse, 5) Joyce Rickwartz. The original names submitted showing corrected spelling are: 6) Jean Harkenrider, 7) Bob Hevel, 8) Shawn Jenkins (not John) , 9) Lee Barrett (not Barak). The motion was made to table this vote until next week, seconded and passed with one abstention. 6. Transfer of Funds By-Law Proposal (Tabled from Meeting #29) The motion was made and seconded to withdraw this proposal out of table and passed with five abstentions and one (1) against. The question was asked if the Judicial Board wasn't taking sane kind of action on the Transfer of Funds and Ken said he had heard something to that effect but wasn't sure just what. Gene Russo made a motion to table this item until we know the findings of the Judicial Board, seconded and passed. 7. Radio Board (emitted frcm agenda in error) (Vote) a. Lise Wyman The motion was made and seconded to approve Lise wyman as a member of the Radio Board. Motion passed. Ken entertained a notion be made for a short recess to allow him time to get seme thing frcm his office that was pertinent to this meeting. Motion made, seconded and passed. Recessed at 5:25 p.m. Meeting resumed frcm recess at 5:35 p.m. VIII.New Business 1. Expenditure of Funds By-Law Bruce Bayne was called upon to give a report on this By-Law and he reported that Senate By-Law No. 5, Section b., provided an expenditure under $1,000 which has been previously budgeted and approved, CSUN Executive officers shall be empowered to expend said expenditures. He further reported that the Senate does not approve anything that has not been previously budgeted. John Hunt endeavored to explain hew any expenditures that have not been budgeted are put into operating expenses. Bruce then said he would like to submit this By-Law before the Senate to see if they think we need it. Ken said he could submit it as a By-Law today and it would be on the Agenda at the next meeting. Bruce than asked if he couldn't have seme feedback from the Senate at this time and if he felt they didn't need it, then he would withdraw it frcm the Agenda. After a few carments frcm the Senate, Ken suggested that Bruce submit his this By-Law in writing at the next meeting which he agreed to do. 2. P.E. Complex - Student Usage Scott Lorenz reported he had a meeting last week with John Bayer and he reported he had to operate the P.E. Complex at the student's expense. He further reported that Dr. Baepler doesn't want it put before the Board of Regents on the agenda as he felt the priorities had already been set and there isn't much he can do about it. Scott said there is going to be an article about the P.E. Complex on the front page of the R-J and perhaps this will open a can of worms, so he would like to wait and see what reaction this article will have on administration, etc. Ken reported that he had written to Dr. Saville regarding the P.E. Complex and John Hunt said that due to the illness of Mr. Slocum, he had not been able to get with Minutes - Senate Meeting #30 February 28, 1978 Page 7 him in order to get the proper wording that is needed for the petition. Gene Russo reported that he had a top-notch connittee last year and they gave a report to the Board of Regents on the P.E. Complex, and the Regents were shocked that the students were using the complex less than they should be. Gene reported he thought it should be put on the Board of Regents agenda. Scott again suggested that they wait until the article appears in the paper then we can get it on the agenda of the Board of Regents. John Dunkin announced that there would be a discussion on the Mandatory Athletic P.E. Fee next week and Dr. Cassese said if it ccmes to a vote next week, the Intra-mural s, etc., could be in real trouble. Rob Nielsen asked if there wasn't semething that could be done about the mandatory physicals, and Ken said it would be placed on the agenda at the next meeting for discussion. There being no further business to discuss, the motion was made to adjourn, seconded and passed. The meeting adjourned at 5:55 p.m. Respectfully submitted by: Florida Edwards CSUN Secretary CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA, LAS VEGAS 4505 Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada 89154 Telephone (702) 739-3477 February 28, 1978 To: ALL CSUN SENATORS From: W.

Bill Botos Epilogue Editor BB/as cc : files SURVEY PROPOSAL by BUREAU OF OPINION RESEARCH for Consolidated Students of the University of Nevada This bureau proposes to conduct a public opinion survey of students at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (UNLV), if con-tracted by the Consolidated Students of the University of Nevada (CSUN), to determine the attitudes and opinions of students at UNLV with respect to programs and policies initiated or carried out by CSUN. This survey would be conducted in March by in-terviewers of the Bureau. Results would be tabulated, compiled and a written analysis presented to CSUN within two weeks of the completion of the interviews. METHODOLOGY The survey would consist of a written ballot containing 20 to 25 questions. (The subject matter of these questions would be determined after consultation with officers of CSUN.) In addition, a series of demographic questions, i.e. age, sex, year-in-school', etc., could be included to provide a more detailed breakdown of the responses. Two-hundere fifty ballots would be completed with the respondents scientifically chosen from a complete list of students enrolled at UNLV. Page 2 The interviews would take place in person as well as over the telephone to expedite the prompt completion of the survey. This sample size is large enough to yield statistically valid data within +6.0 percentage points at the 95 per cent confidence level. The Bureau's total charges for this survey would be $985.00. This figure includes the costs for preparation of ballots, selection of sample, pre-testing, interviewer costs, computer programming, coding of responses, keypunching, analysis, and final prepared draft of the results. As was discussed with Scott Lorenz, CSUN President, the Bureau would expect CSUN to assist with printing costs and a computer account in order to advance the completion date of the analysis. The Bureau hopes to be of great service to CSUN and the students of the University of Nevada with this proposed survey.
