IV. ANNOUNCEMENTS: SENATE PRESIDENT MOORE introduced Holly Wainscott, the new Senate Secretary. He asked the Senators to please go easy on her and enunciate clearly and speak to the chair. Dr. Harter will be addressing the Senate as soon as she arrives, when she comes in he will be moving back into her address. He also stated that he is not feeling well and may be leaving early. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE TRUJILLO had no comment. V. BOARD AND COMMITTEE REPORTS: A. Senate Committee Reports: 1. SENATOR MARSHALL stated that bylaws will be meeting on Thursday at 1:00 p.m. in the Senate chambers. 2. SENATOR FISK stated that Campus Safety met last Tuesday and no meeting is scheduled for the next two weeks 3. SENATOR KIMBROUGH stated that Rules and Ethics will not be meeting Wednesday. SENATE PRESIDENT MOORE moved back into Announcements, and stated that Dr. Harter is here to address us and does this at least once a semester to keep us updated as well as to provide a valuable insight and a chance to talk with the President of our University. He then gave the floor to Dr. Harter. Dr. Harter discussed how right now they are getting the University ready for the next legislative session, and although it is more than a year away, they want to be ready with budget requests, with capital requests, and other requests, and they really have to start this far in advance to get ready for all of it. She basically talked about what their strategy is about what they are trying to do for the next biannual budget cycle, and that is to get UNLV in a much better funding position than we have historically been. So this is not an easy thing to do. We are not in an equitable funding position relative to the national peers in our category along with our state peer. She stated that she doesn't want to start a North/South wolf pack Rebels argument, but that we have much to make up for. For the hundred and some years in the history of our sister institution, they have been able to build a budget base that we have not been able to build in a much shorter history. We grew very rapidly and weren't funded very well during that growth period and we have fallen significantly behind. So we're trying not in any way to cause a North/South war or a two institution war, what we're trying to do is present ourselves through the relationship to our national peer institutions, other 2 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 major public Universities, and where our funding is relative to those, which it's considerably below. So our budget requests are really not very modest this time. They are having their first session tomorrow with the chancellor and his staff to try and talk about enrollment and are going to predict about a five percent enrollment growth in both undergraduate and graduate levels over the next three years. They want more money for every possible category where we need and deserve more dollars for the institution. There are many things like public service and outreach to the community that they want to do and they really don't have very many dollars to fund those kinds of things. They have 10 million dollars worth of requests in what is sort of a public service extension outreach category, and they only have about $600,000 in that category right now. So they are not making a modest request. They also have some special initiatives that they're interested in and are hoping will be funded, including about a 10 or 12 million dollar request to do a comprehensive allied health programs initiative. It took a lot of time to get the Physical Therapy Program started and we want to start an Occupational Therapy Program, Pediatric Physical Therapy Program, Speech and Audiology Program, and possibly other programs as well. They would like a whole set of allied health related activities that they believe the state and the city can benefit from greatly and that we would need a kind of jump start in funding to be able to get it started. Their total capital requests are over a hundred million dollars. That would be what was funded for the whole system last year, so again it is not modest. And that starts with the rest of the money for the library. They were able to get the building for the 50 million that we had gotten in both private and public funding, but what we haven't gotten is the furnishings and the technology and so forth, and that's about 9 million dollars that we need for that new library. The second request is 15 million dollars to re-do the current library for the law school. Those are two top priorities that go with the last year's legislative cycle major initiatives that they had funded. The third one is the student services building. They would very much like to take everything that is now in Frasier Hall that is related to admissions and registration and have it be closely connected to everything that relates to student financial aid and other student services and have it in one place so students aren't running one end of the campus to the other. They have been asking for this for a while and haven't gotten it, they went to a private foundation and haven't gotten it, and she is very hopeful that this year they get so sick of hearing it that they will give it to us. Some of the other things are a complete re-doing of Wright Hall, and a complete re-doing of Grant Hall, which have been on their list for a number of years. They would also like to build a major technology building that would have everything centered around technology for instructional purposes in a building right next to Wright Hall. And then of course, we look to get an allied health initiative, and would like to have an major addition to the Bigelow Health Sciences Building to be able to mount the series of health services related programs. She stated that those are some of their not modest plans and since we have to compete with every other school in the University System for these dollars, it takes a while inside the system before you go ever go before the legislature. The regents have approved a budget for the whole system and have put in requests for proposals and those are the next several steps over the next couple of the months. They also have a couple of joint projects that the Senate might 3 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 find interesting. The city of Las Vegas has given us ten acres of property on the west side of town right near where the medical school from UNR is going to build a major facility. Right next to it, they told us they would give us the 10 acres to develop Bio-engineering and Bio-technology programs. They are very interested in this and hope that we can begin that process. They have been working jointly with the Community College, with the medical school, and with UNLV to mount very sophisticated programs of research, teaching and Bio-technology and Bio-engineering related activities. Another joint project that they we have on the drawing board would be a joint campus with the Community College out in Green Valley, and they are also trying to get planning dollars for a joint campus out in Summerland. She stated that we can't forever stay in this 335 acres, and there is considerable student interest for us to move into some satellite areas. We are now working very well and closely with the community college on transfers between the two institutions and if we can establish satellite campuses where we can do that together, she thinks it will be a really good thing for the future for students. Those are some of the major things they are working on right now. Numerous questions followed. SENATOR TRUJILLO made a motion to move out of order to Item 9, seconded by SENATOR AUGUSTIN Move into a vote: Motion Passes 17-4-1 (SENATORS WHITAKER, MARSHALL, JORY, and CARTWRIGHT opposed, SENATOR FISK abstained). IX. EXECUTIVE BOARD ANNOUNCEMENTS AND SUMMATIONS PRESIDENT MILLS thanked SENATE PRESIDENT MOORE and SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE TRUJILLO for giving him the honor of moving out of the order of the day. He has a class-related function that he had to attend, so he will be leaving the meeting shortly. He stated that today they had their Executive Board meeting and he thanked all of the Senators that came to the meeting. One of the things they discussed were the judicial candidates, and there are many of them there tonight so during public comment they could take the opportunity to introduce themselves to the Senate, and they are coming up on the next E-Board agenda. Also there are some other issues on the agenda today, which are very important issues. As he stated last week in the State of the Campus Address, "right now we are at the crossroads and we can either go the right way and help students out and do more things for the students, or we can go the wrong way and we can move into endless bickering and fighting that has not gotten us anywhere for the last many months." Some of the things on the agenda tonight he supports, like the things that have to do with events for students on campus. He also stated that we have two of our former E&P Directors, Brian Saliba and Mike Castillo here tonight and they are going to be speaking on behalf of REBELPALOOZA. He would like all of the Senators to take time out to go to the 4 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 events and they are going to help out a lot of students. He thanked the Senate again for giving him the opportunity to speak at this time, and he should see them all during the week. He tried to get the tickets out to as many people who were there as possible, and if you weren't able to get tickets, stop by and see him or leave a voice mail for him. SENATOR TRUJILLO made a motion to move back into the order of the day to item 5, seconded by SENATOR ZARANTI. Move into a vote. Motion passes: 22-0-0. Move back into item 5. B. Faculty Senate/University Committee Reports: There were no reports. C. Director Reports: 1. NSA DIRECTOR CONTINE stated that he was glad President Harter was able to come and that she talked about growth and change in the University. They have a Growth Forum coming up on Wednesday being put on Pi Sigma Alpha that will talk about some of the new proposals to deal with growth. It is at 11:30 upstairs in the MSU. He has been talking continually with some printing companies about the list and want them to send out a reminder to the people for the non-partisans. If anybody is interested, they can talk to him. 2. Elections Board DIRECTOR FLEISCHMAN stated that that she realizes there were comments made at the last meeting, and her elections board will not tolerate any CSUN event being used for campaigning, being used by anybody even mentioning campaigning. If they see it, they will act on it, if they don't see it they expect complaints in written form. They are here to follow the rules and they will strictly enforce them. Next she asked the Senators to please not sit at the Elections Board desk. She wants only Elections Board members to sit there because people might think whoever is sitting there is a member and she doesn't want to get in that situation. She then read a statement that went as follows: "In regards to item E on the Executive Board agenda, time stamped on Feb. 3, 1998 and posted on Feb. 4, 1998,1 have the following statement. Censure, as defined by Webster's II Dictionary ed. 1998, is (1) an expression of blame or disapproval and/or (2) an official rebuke. As per my understanding of the power structure this item is improperly placed on the agenda. If I was to perform any actions that would fall under the definition of censure I would first be reprimanded verbally and in writing by my supervisor, VICE PRESIDENT LUIS F. VALERA. The proposed reason for item E is, "for failure to attend ANY CSUN Executive Board meeting throughout 1997-98 Term (sic)". For the Fall semester there were approximately 4 meetings. For each of these meetings I 5 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 informed my supervisor that I would not be able to attend. Whenever possible my Assistant Director Keith W. McLain attended in my place. This is now the second meeting of the Spring semester. My schedule was never requested, verbally or in writing, by the Chair of the Executive Board, PRESIDENT JOSEPH MILLS. However, for the past two years, as a Director and as a Senator, I have been available till the hour of 5:00 p.m. on Mondays. Consequently, I have not been able to attend the current Executive Board Meeting schedule. Whenever possible my Assistant Director has attended in my place. If that option was unavailable then I have given a written report to my supervisor VICE PRESIDENT LUIS F. VALERA. This system is still currently in effect. At this time I would also like to mention an error that occurred while writing the item. My name is Leia Fleischman and has been since I became an Officer of CSUN on November of 1994. As an official of CSUN I have not undergone a name change therefore 'Director Jennifer Fleischman (sic)' is incorrect. Thank you for your time Director Leia Fleishman. She created for her board members only binders that have their logo on the front, and inside contains ten copies of each form that a candidate may request. There is a meeting on Friday, which will be the last meeting for candidates and when campaigning officially begins and rules also including the MSU public policy. SENATOR HAMILTON created stickers that say CSUN elections. She has them in her possession and will be cutting them up and putting them inside boxes spray painted red with CSUN written on them. She bought boxes with lids so they can be stored for the future. They also purchased a banner that will be going across the tables used for elections. They are the exact size of the tables instead of the current ones which are too long and have horrible tape marks on them. There was some questions and discussion. 3. O-BOARD SENATOR TRUJILLO stated that O-Board will have a meeting tomorrow at 5:00 p.m. He has received about six re-recognition packets. He also has some funding requests available at that meeting. All organizations have to re-submit those every semester. There is no action items being discussed at the meeting because there is nobody officially recognized that turned in the packets. SENATOR KIMBROUGH asked if he had received the old packets from Jason from last semester. SENATOR TRUJILLO responded that according to Jason there has been no funding request packets to be acted upon and he has turned everything over already and it has gone to Ways and Means. If it has been lost he apologizes and suggests to re-submit a new one. 4. E & P-VICE PRESIDENT VALERA stated that he has been acting in place of the E&P Director and has been working on the REBELPALOOZA project. He will also be working with Campus Community Development because he has limited knowledge about contracts and they have more experience with it. 5. OSI DIRECTOR A YON stated that there was no OSI page on Thursday because they had a problem with the Rebel Yell, so it came out today. There still will be one on Thursday. They have had a lot of organizations turn in their 6 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 meetings for the week. Right now they are working on the Rebel Rave fliers. They are going to be more expensive than the usual fliers. These are going to have more artwork and color. They pushed back the basketball game with the Rebel Yell until the 21st. They have also been trying to come up with some type of poster size flier to promote CSUN in general. There was some questions and discussion. D. Residence Hall Liaison Report: JENNIFER PECK stated that their Romance Awareness week had gotten off to a great start tonight. They are meeting on Sunday about the television channel survey and hope to see something happen by the end of the month. The Residence Halls are going to be sponsoring a CSUN Executive Board elections candidate forum at 9:00 on Thursday, the 26th. E. Student Athlete Advisory Board Liaison Report: DARON DORSEY thanked the Senators that went to their meeting last Tuesday night. The first Tuesday of march will be their next meeting. The NCAA certification committee is going along strong. Also, two of UNLV's star athletes were suspended again today, Keon Clark and John Denton. He asked if the Senators are asked any questions about it they should just respond that they should go with what they read in the papers and not to look into it, because it gives the student athletes a bad reputation. SENATOR CANEPA asked how long they were suspended for. DARON DORSEY responded that they were suspended indefinitely. Keon will hopefully be back for the last two games. According to the people in the Athletic Department, John will probably have to sit out spring practice, but nobody knows for sure how long. SENATE PRESIDENT MOORE stated that DARON DORSEY does run a good meeting. F. Ethnic Student Council Liaison Report: ANN YU stated that their next meeting will be February 19th. They are going to be co-sponsoring the African American Achievement Conference on February 21st. They are going to be hand delivering letters commenting on the UNLV Promise Committee Breakfast. This is to help raise funds for the volunteer center . The Cultural Relations committee chair is looking into having a Fashion Show March 21st at 6 p.m. in the MSU Ballroom. The line of clothing is called C'amore and she is a graduate student at UNLV. All proceeds will go to Hydea. She also brought copies of their newsletter to pass around. G. Business Manager Report: 7 SENATE MINUTES 28-10/ February 9, 1998 BUSINESS MANAGER JIM MOORE read the expenditures for the week: (2) $46.00 expenditures to pre-purchase the parking permits for the spring general and primary elections. $493.50 for some small quiz strip scantrons, and $131.80 for printer ink for the fax machine.
