MEMORANDUM SEPTEMBER 17, 198l TO: CSUN SENATE FROM: STEVE BAILET, EPILOGUE '82 EDITOR RE: COST OF THE YEARBOOK EPILOGUE ' 8 2 450S' So IVteryisnd Pkwy. Las-Vegas, 0313*1 C70S ) 739-3881 a csun putjIiCBCiori The 1982 Epilogue will "be $5.00 and $7-50. go on s a l e October I . The c a s t o f t h e "book w i l l After studying the situation, I do not feel that CSUN is ready to distribute the yearbook for free yet. Because of the low popularity of the book, it would not be wise to pour a lot of money into buying yearbooks that we would not be able to give away- What needs to be done now is to build a better reputation for the book. This will enable CSUN to be more daring with the yearbook in the future, and pave the way for free distribution of the book. As for now, the first 500 yearbooks (our minimum order) will be sold for $5.00, and every book order over the minimum order will be sold at our cost ($7.50). cc: Executive Board Mr. Fitchet ENTS 4505 Maryland Parkway Las Vegas, Nevada 89154 Telephone (702) 739-3477 PRESIDENT DIRK A. RAVENHOLT MEMORANDUM TO: The CSUN SENATE FROM: Dirk A, Ravenholt,CSUH President DATE: September 16, 1981 RE: VETO - $250,00/Allocation of Funds to AAfa Kappa Psi At senate meeting No, i+0 on September 15, 1981., the senate passed a motion to allocate $250-00 to the Alpha Kappa Psi professional fraternity for rush expenses incurred ia the Fall 1981. At this time, I must veto this action due to the precedent this would set for future money requests. The CSUN Senate is a policy making body and to have them financially? support the Rush activities of a single fraternity -would obligate them to equally support any other organization, of CSUH who request monies for their future rushes. Thank you for your support on this issue. DR : st MINUTES Senate Meeting Moyer Student Union B u i l d i ng Room 203 k p.m. 9-15-81 I .
