SENATOR FOX yielded the floor to Terry Kohlmeier who explained how the Preschool has grown and CSUN has backed and supported the Preschool since 1971. The Preschool is accredited and the T-shirts and Stationary all have CSUN on them. The wall to wall carpet is required for licensing, and the enclosing of the foyer area is to promote safety. They have not asked to be given the money for all the remodeling but it would help them a great deal to have CSUN's assistance with some.(figures passed out at the meeting attached to minutes) 4 5 0 5 SOUTH MARYLAND PARKWAY • LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 8 9 1 5 4 • ( 7 0 2 ) 7 3 9 - 3 4 7 7 • FAX ( 7 0 2 ) 5 9 7 - 4 6 0 6 SENATE MINUTES 24-28 page 2 SENATOR CAMPBELL arrives late. SENATE PRESIDENT ROMERO yielded the floor to STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT BOIXO who stated that she believes that it is a good project but the Executive Board decided to limit it to half because the Preschool was just given $30,000.00 which is an increase of $5,000.00 for their summer program. She doesn't understand why they cannot get the money through Grants or through the College of Education. SENATOR FOX stated that if CSUN can spend $10,000.00 on concerts, and give KUNV $90,000.00 who can also get grants why we can't help the preschool who holds our name. She feels very strongly in favor of giving them the money. SENATOR SCHWARTZ stated that according to the handout they are already trying to get close to $14,000.00 from other outside sources, and the increase of money that was given was for a new program to bring in more students. This is a one time fee that would benefit all the students and increase enrollment. SENATOR POBST wanted to express her support in giving the full amount, it benefits all the students of UNLV. i I Move into a vote on the amendment. Motion passes 13-0-0.

( Motion to approve made by SENATOR POBST, seconded by SENATOR MCMILLIN. SENATOR POBST asked where the money came from?

STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT BOIXO stated that her secretary and Business Manager Callison are both out of the office so all she has is the cost of the flight. Writes the estimated breakdown on the board and comes up with the amount of $480. SENATE PRESIDENT ROMERO stated that himself and President Boixo didn't realize that the item had to be on the agenda by this meeting, so it was a last minute edition and because of the absence of Office Staff he just had to make an estimate of what it could cost. That is why there is not a breakdown. President Boixo didn't have a Constitution with the bylaw and didn't know about it. SENATOR SCHWARTZ stated that to his knowledge the Senate would have to waive the bylaw in order to pass the item. SENATOR SMITH asked when they were leaving? STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT BOIXO stated they would be leaving on Thursday, August 25th. SENATOR SMITH asked what the re-embursment policy was? SENATE PRESIDENT ROMERO stated that with the bylaw there isn't one. Motion made to waive bylaw 43 till 8:00p.m. August 22, 1994, seconded by SENATOR POBST. Move into a vote to waive bylaw 43.

ANNOUNCEMENTS [FROM THIS SECTION ON THE MINUTES HAVE BEEN EDITED BY THE SENATE SECRETARY, IF THERE ARE ANY QUESTIONS YOU ARE ASKED TO REFER TO THE TAPE] STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT BOIXO announced that the Executive Board had received bids for Election Assistance and the Board will be deciding on it at the next meeting. The pep rallies are set before each of the football games. Welcome Week is coming up and we need to get out and get the students involved. She didn't know if she would be in the meeting for open discussion so she wanted to ask if the Senate is doing things the way they are to make her mad or if it is just because they didn't want to pass it. She didn't understand why the Senate wouldn't want herself or Andre going to the Regent Meeting. STUDENT BODY VICE PRESIDENT LAGOMARSINO thanked the Senate for approving the item so that he and Student Body President Boixo could go to the Regents Meeting. Has been putting all the little attitude sayings in the Senate boxes, because if he is going to subject the Directors to it he might as well give them to the Senators. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE the reason he was opposed to the item was because she knew about the bylaw, he suggests the Senate investigate President Boixo and what she is doing because she is not abiding by the law and the Constitution. The Election biding, he has seen the paperwork and the California contractor has lowered his bid by $1,000.00 no one does a decrease of that much for no reason. She knew about the bylaw and regardless of whether the Senate gets more seats or not he will not allow the Executive Board to get things through the Senate illegally SENATE PRESIDENT ROMERO there will be a memo in the boxes tomorrow about the composites, if people can't be there to have there before the meeting they need to lets him know because they want to get it up the first week of school. There are three seats open on the Senate and filing dates for election SENATE MINUTES 24-28 page 2 are coming up for the Senators who are thinking of running for re-election. IV. BOARD AND COMMITTEE REPORTS A. SENATE COMMITTEE REPORTS a. Rules & Ethics, CHAIR SCHWARTZ he has copies of the rules if anyone needs them. As Chair of the Rules & Ethics Committee that is one reason he voted down the item because President Boixo was in the Senate when the bylaw was created and the first time a bylaw is tested it should not be waived. He did not vote it down to make President Boixo mad but it was a great side effect. The way President Boixo is running things makes him mad and she is breaking the law and if she has slipped information with Elections she is breaking the law all of which is grounds for impeachment. If President Boixo is doing things wrong he will not hesitate in voting her down. b. Bylaws, CHAIR POBST she needs two more people on her committee to hold a meeting. c. Ad hoc Constitutional Revision, CHAIR CAMPBELL it was her committee that helped draft the proposal that is going to the Regents Meeting, so she is glad that President Boixo and Vice President Lagomarsino are going to the meeting. She didn't vote no on the bylaw but she felt it was not right for the Executive Board to wait till the last minute to get the trip approved. SENATOR VODRAZKA stated that it is not open discussion right now. d. Student Health Liaison, SENATOR VOLKERT will be having a meeting with the Director of the Health Center some time during the first week of school with President Romero. B. DIRECTORS REPORTS a. Nevada Student Affairs, DIRECTOR JOHANNSSON given by DIRECTOR PHILLIPS the first voter registration drive is during the Week of Welcome; the Health Center has not given her a report yet but she has information on handouts (attached to the minutes); will be putting together a group to take a tour of the Health Center. b. Office of Student Information, DIRECTOR WALLACE working on getting the banners for the tailgate party and fliers; will be taking suggestion for the OSI Board and the page in the paper; the last Student Government booth will be on Thursday, SENATE MINUTES 24-28 page 2 August 25th for anyone who would like to help. c. Organizations Board, DIRECTOR PHILLIPS is working on getting more boxes for the Organizations because she needs at least twenty more boxes; she needs someone who is uninvolved in any organizations to be her representative for the Senate; there are football posters in the office for anyone who would like them. d. Student Services, DIRECTOR GREENHALGH the new copier is in the office for everyone to try out; the sharpeners for the classrooms are backordered and the process is being expedited because they were not ordered when he was told they were ordered; he has been working on getting a reader board for the office to inform the students. Motion by SENATOR BLOCK to move to Item VI. on the agenda, seconded by SENATOR CAMPBELL. Move into a vote. Motion passes 11-0-1. SENATOR VODRAZKA abstained. VI. OPEN DISCUSSION SENATOR MCMILLIN was for the child care, every year things have to be fixed and updated. SENATOR VODRAZKA bylaw 43 was to stop the past administration from each of the three Executive Board members from going on a trip and submitting the breakdowns separately to avoid the Senate having to approve it, in this situation they just forgot, if they were really trying to slip it past the Senate they would have gone on the trip and brought it to the Senate after the fact, that is why he approved it; just because the $500.00 limit is there does not give the permission purposely to order something just under the limit so it doesn't need Senate approval. SENATOR BLOCK believes the new renovations on the preschool are great. SENATOR CAMPBELL has nothing personal against a fellow Senator but she didn't appreciate being interrupted in the middle of her report because she did believe that the bylaw waiving had something to do with her committee; she voted against going to the Regents Meeting not to be vindictive or because she doesn't like someone, that is ridiculous; she had been chosen to go to the meeting originally, since then she was told she could not go, she felt like she would be the logical person to give the presentation. SENATE MINUTES 24-28 page 2 SENATOR SMITH apologized for being late; apologized for upsetting anyone with the vote by procedure is procedure and it needs to be followed, but with all respect we are not required to give anything to the Executive Board. SENATOR POBST would like to see some of the minutes from the last meetings; would like to see a cost breakdown of the trip when they get back, because the bylaw states that the Senate should receive a full breakdown two days before the meeting it is to be approved at so it is not just one little thing they are screwing up on; it is important for them to go because we need the representation. STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT BOIXO the reason that there are only two people going to the Regent Meeting is because there is way to much money spent on travel. She was at the meetings when the Senate was working on the Proposal so she will be able to present it adequately, she knows exactly what it is about. She never stated that SENATOR CAMPBELL could go on the trip; she doesn't understand why the Senate wouldn't want to approve allowing someone to represent the school to go to the Regent Meeting. She believes that SENATOR POBST should be on a marquee on the strip because she cracks her up at every meeting. With the preschool she knows she looks like the big bad wolf but when they came to her in the beginning they did not make it clear that they had also gone else where for funding. STUDENT BODY VICE PRESIDENT LAGOMARSINO wanted to let the Senate know that the Directors have been putting in a lot of extra hours and are doing a great job; as a whole the Student Government has been running great despite the negativity in the meeting. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE PIDA the child care center remodeling will be a great benefit; the $500.00 on the trips it is there not only for bylaw 43 but for anything, he was not in favor of waiving bylaws just because the Secretaries are gone or because they didn't want to do the research, President Boixo knew ahead of time that the research had to be done and she knew about the bylaw this is something that has to be done before any trip; he believes that SENATOR CAMPBELL was the logical choice to go and represent the proposal since she was and is the Chair, if there was any wasteful spending it is in the fact that Vice President Lagomarsino is going; as far as the elections are concerned he would like the Senators to get involved because he is friends with these people and the ends are not meeting right, he would like the Senate to have all the facts when they have to vote on it; the Senate needs to keep track of the Executive Board because they don't want to step on each others toes. The Senator who accused President Boixo of wrong doing was correct the Procurement Law does not SENATE MINUTES 24-28 page 2 allow for other individuals to know another's bid, or give the person a chance to bid again and under cut someone regardless of whether or not she doesn't want to work with someone. SENATE PRESIDENT ROMERO is glad that they tabled the items for KUNV if they are uncomfortable about it, but they need to call people who have items on the agenda and let them know they need to be there to answer questions; Tony Mayberry was here but had to leave; you do have the privilege to put items on the agenda because you are responsible for these decisions, but you must also understand that if the Executive Board feels its not a good decision they are allowed to veto it, but in the end the Senate has full control of the money, but things need to be talked about it further in advance; you have privileges but with these privileges comes responsibility so understand this. Motion to adjourn the meeting at made by SENATOR BLOCK, seconded by SENATOR SMITH. Move into a vote. Motion passes 12-0-0.
