NEVADA 89154/(702) 739-3477 May 14, 1985 MEMEORANDUM To: All Senators From: Kent Anderson, Jennifer Reed Re: Piffles Donation Request Originally, when formulating the Piffles budget of approximately $6,000. plus, I had decided not to ask CSUN for any financial assistance. One of the large donors, Regent Chris Karamanos, decided this was not an opportune time to be giving money to worthy charitable causes. This has put Piffles and its production in a bind and we find it absolutely necessary to ask, plead and beg for a helping hand. CSUN made $5 96.45 from the Rocky Horror Movie and I have spoken with Therese Kowalczyk who will speak in favor of a trasfer of that money to the Piffles production. This would not cover the $1,000. loss, but would enable Piffles to be completed in a quality way consistent with the rest of the program. Ms. Jennifer Reed will be speaking to you on Thursday since I will be in Reno at The Board of Regents Conference with Sean. Sean Kelleher also is in favor of the transfer. I thank you in advance for your assistance, and cooperation. CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT MEMORANDUM TO: All Senators FROM: Sean Kelleher, CSUN President ' DATE: May 20, 19 8 5 RE: VETO Please consider Item K from Senate meeting #15-25 concerning approval of $596.46 to the Student Council for Exceptional Children (Piffles account) vetoed. SK;sjd UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA. LAS VEGAS/4505 MARYLAND PARKWAY/LAS VEGAS. NEVADA 89154/(702) 739-3477 CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS OFFICE OF THE PRESIDENT MEMORANDUM TO: All Senators FROM: Sean Kelleher, CSUN President DATE: May 20, 1985 RE: Previous memo concerning veto After much deliberation this weekend, I vetoed the item concerning Piffles for several reasons, first being; that the "Piffles" representative, Kent Anderson admitted to me on Wednesday, the 15th of May, to having removed all the Yellin' Rebels newspapers from campus. This was considered by the Senate in Meeting 15-24 an impeachable offense, because Mr. Anderson is no longer in office, I can not move to impeach him. However, the responsi-bility for the credibility for this government rests with me and I would be remiss in my duties, if I was to reward Mr. Ander-son with the appropriation of $596.46. Albeit, Piffles is a benefit for two worthy causes. I believe that the fault of this inconvenience to Piffle^ is not my failure to ignore my duties, but rather Mr.: Anderson's actions on Wednesday, May 15, 1985, when he chose to violate the civil rights of both the Yell and the students on campus. In addition, I have called an emergency meeting for the Senate, on Thursday, May
