Approval of Minutes #32 Motion to approve the minutes made by Bill Botos, seconded and passed unanimously. IV. Executive Board Announcements 1. Scott Lorenz announced that Dr. Cassese had turned in his resignation as Parliamentarian. The Chair submitted the name of Neil Slocum as Parlia-mentarian to be voted upon at the next Senate meeting. V. Committee Reports 1. Treasurer's Report John Hunt, in reply to Gretchen Smith's request, gave a breakdown on where the money went for the Octoberfest jackets in a letter written by Ferenc Szony to the Senate. Ference reported that some of the jackets had been stolen. The eight jackets that were sold were sold at just what they had cost and the money had been given to John Hunt for deposit. Chuck White asked where the Host Fund Expenditure report was that he had asked for and was advised that it would be on the Agenda at the next meeting. 2. Union Board Gene Russo reported that the architect who had drawn up the plans for the student union remodeling has passed away very suddenly. He asked permission to send a note of sympathy from the Senate to the family and Ken Holt said it was not necessary to get permission to do so. He then reported on the Snack Bar renovation and that April 19th would be a crucial day. He has made 25 copies of the specifications for bid and that Herman Westfall has Minutes - Senate Meeting #33 March 21, 1978 Page 2 has given him an adequate budget to work with. Bill Botos asked him how much they plan to allow for this renovation and Gene reported around $116,000. 3. Activities Board A report was given on the success of the Charles Kuralt lecture and it was announced that the Mime show would be presented on Wednesday night, March 22, in the ballroom. Bob Biale asked if the Mime show had not been cancelled until a later date and Rob Nielsen reported they had managed to get the Mime show so cheap, they couldn't turn it down. He reported Activities would only have to pay out $500.00 for the publicity and the Mime show would get the door receipts. Chuck White asked for a report on the Mime receipts. 4. Radio Board Tim McRoberts gave a report on the New York Convention from which he had just returned and said the only negative part of the whole convention was that everyone there was from low budget stations. He reported that the UNLV radio station had a $50,000 a year budget and 91.5 Watts. He announced that if the senators wanted more details on the convention, he would sit down with them and supply them with any information they desired. VI. Old Business Chuck White inquired of the Chair why the Senate was not given the Election rules that were passed by the Regents. Ken replied that he didn't have a copy of all the changes but he was welcome to come down to his office and check into the Constitution. He further stated that there were wording changes and not content changes in the Constitution. Bob Biale requested that the Senate be given a copy of the Constitution under which they are now working at the next Senate meeting. The Chair reminded the Senate that any discussion of this sort should go under Open Discussion as it was against the open meeting law to discuss this at this time. 1. Intramural Sports Rob Nielsen informed the Senate that he didn't want to back-stab anyone but just wanted to ask some questions about the Intramural. Gary Wood was given the floor and reported on the evaluation of what he had seen from CCOA this year at school. He reported he felt they did a fair job job with the flag football, since they had never done it before. He rated their performance at Volleyball refereeing as "poor". Basketball refereeing was not very professional on the scorekeeper's part or work on the floor as there had been a lot of bad calls. He further reported that back in November he and Mr. Bayne were figuring up the last payment for football — he said it was either football or volleyball..but they owed $160.00 to CCOA. He stated that Mr. Bayne and he were figuring out how much it actually would cost and that Mr. Bayne said, "Well, how about us making it for $200.00 and we'll give you the difference...kickback!" Gary said he replied, "Sure." then thought about it a second and said, "No!" Mr. Wood further quoted, "In my conversation with Mr. Bayne, he told me that if he was in a position of authority for the students, that he would skim money off the top from the student government many times if he had the opportunity. I think we should look into CCOA and rate them according to official associations here in town!" Mr. Wood said he Minutes - Senate Meeting #33 March 21, 1978 Page 3 didn't think they had improved in football and that points to the fact that they have not done jobs as professionals. John Hunt was granted the floor and stated that he asked Mr. Bayne last week to have his financial records here of payments we have made to him and how they were deliniated to his organizations, and that he would not comply with the request. John further stated that,"The basic issue here is that we have a Senator who, from the information that we have from Mr. Wood, and a Senator who asks an official, a part of our government, to take a kickback .... this is something that whatever we do, no matter what we do, how we act, how we challenge each other, and how we act on a political basis, honesty has got to be the crux of government... and if we have individuals that are going to contemplate kickbacks, then I think that conduct unbecoming a senator and at this time, would like to motion for an investigative impeachment committee against Mr. Bayne." This motion was seconded. (Could not distinguish by whom) It then went into further discussion. Chuck White asked Gary Wood to repeat where he and Mr. Bayne were figuring up the last payment to the CCOA. After Mr. Wood repeated what he had been asked to do, Chuck White said he thought if we form a committee, it should be up to the committee to investigate and evaluate any charges and testimony and he did't feel Mr. Bayne should have to stand up there and take all this. He felt it should be a closed meeting for the investigating committee. Mr. Neil Slocum spoke to the Senate and told them he was their legal advisor and cautioned them that this man has actually accused this gentleman of a crime and there are procedures for that, and, of course there are dis-ciplinary procedures and all that sort of thing ...and if that's the case, then he advised Mr. Bayne to say nothing at all..but that was up to him, since he does not represent him personally but would advise that actions be taken properly and advised that any precipitant action on the part of the Senate can result in personal liability, as well as wrongfully accusing somebody. Ken Holt stated that the whole purpose of the Committee will be to check the allegations, find out if there are further allegations and render their decision to the Senate. Gene Russo called for the question, but Ken replied that,"In view of what Mr. Slocum said, Bruce, if you still want to give a statement, this is up to you, but he wanted him to still take into consider-ation what Mr. Slocum advised." Bruce then asked Gary how long ago did this happen and Gary replied, November — December. The exact date he could not remember. Bruce then asked when did he tell him he'd skim off the top? Gary replied, last summer. Bruce asked, "Was I a member of the CSUN Senate?" Gary replied that he was not. Finally Bruce asked,"At any time, especially during last year's election, why didn't you give me a report that you were unsatisfied yourself?" Ken was forced to interrupt the discussion as he felt they were getting into a cross examination. He told Bruce to make his statement and they would vote on the Committee. Jerry Gatch gave a call to the question which was seconded by Gene Russo. Show of hands signified 11 for, 9 against — motion passed. The motion to form an Impeachment Committee to investigate Bruce Bayne and The Clark County Officials Association proved 12 in favor, 2 against and 8 abstentions. The committee is to be appointed by the President, Scott Lorenz, to consist of two (2) CSUN Senators and one (1) administrator. Mr. Slocum was asked if he could be in attendance at the committee meeting and he advised that Mr. Bayne should have an attorney of his own at the meeting. Minutes - Senate Meeting #33 March 21, 1978 Page 4 2. Activities Board Lecture Expenditures Joe Matvay stated that he thought whenever the Senate approved a contract they knew how much was going to be spent. Scott Lorenz announced that Dr. Baepler said he will pay for the Nimoy dinner out of his Host Fund budget. Bob Biale upheld allowing the Activities Board to spend money to entertain a lecturer. The Chair was vacated to Gene Russo. Discussion continued. Chuck White said they had never seen anything on the David Frost dinner and the same three people who go all the time went again. Ken Holt returned to the Chair. Ferenc Szony introduced himself to the Senate and remarked that no one from the Senate ever comes into the Activities Department with any questions before the event but only after the occasion. He reported the difference in the Stipend checks received by the Activities Board against what the Senate receives and how many more hours are spent by those who help with the activities. Any dinners that any of the students receive who have worked on an activity are a little reward for their time and effort, it was reported. Tim McRoberts suggested that the Activities Board set up a policy so that the person who puts in the hours on an event is the one to get the reward. Gretchen Smith asked to have the item of Radio Board stipends on the next agenda. Scott Lorenz suggested that Steve Francis present the Senate with an Operating policy of the Activities Board. 3. Senate Meeting Proposal (Vote) Tabled indefinitely. 4. Radio Station (Vote) $1500.00 Engineering Report for New Tower Site The motion was made, seconded and passed to issue a check to the Radio Station Engineering Firm for the new Tower Site proposal. 5.

Maria DeLuca announced there was to be a mandatory meeting in the CSUN office Wednesday for all candidates who had filed. There was a call to the question after all revisions had been voted upon and accepted. Motion passed and the Election Rules were accepted as amended. Maria DeLuca was asked why she changed the posting time from 12:00 noon until 3:00 o'clock and she explained that it was a bad time to try and hang posters in the snack bar when it was filled with students eating. Maria DeLuca announced if she can go to another location to poll, she will. Scott Lorenz asked for the names of anyone interested to be on the Election Board and he will appoint them. Scott made a motion to hire two (2) security guards to guard the voting booths, which was seconded and passed. VII. Senate Vacancy Seat - Allied Health - Submit No names were submitted so Ken Holt said he would talk to the Dean to see if there might be anyone interested. Scott announced there was a vacancy on the Judicial Board due to the resignation of Steve Compton and appointed Jim Rosenberger as Acting Chief Justice. He also appointed Bob Rather as a member of Intercollegiate in the place of Gary Wood. This will be on the agenda at the next meeting. VIII. Open Discussion Bruce Bayne opened the discussion and said he would like to defend the CCOA and believes that this Senate and this student body got their money's worth. He further stated that CCOA is separate from him and what the Senate thinks he has done should not reflect on CCOA. He also stated that as President of CCOA, it is no one's business what he pays his men. Neil Slocum gave a report on his Legal Advisory Clinic and stated the purpose of the clinic is to furnish legal advise to a student. He stated that this year the clinic has been the best he has ever had and the problems are generally ordinary legal problems with some of the students later becoming his clients. He further stated that the Legal Clinic is entirely separate from what he does here at the Senate. Minutes - Senate Meet:Lug #33 March 21, .1.978 2 Bob Biale questioned the legality of a Senator filing for another Senate seat in the next session and was told to draw up a complaint and present it to the Judicial Board. Gretchen Smith questioned the legality of any Senator present at the Senate Meeting this date being able to give an unbiased decision on Bruce Bayne. Ken replied that the purpose of this committee is to investigate all of the allegations against Bruce. Bill Botos asked if there was anything in the rules with regard to the Senators getting up and leaving the room during the meeting.

University of Nevada System An Equal Opportunity Employer Bruce Bayne and the Clark County Officials Association Gary Wood stated he would just like to give the Senate an evaluation of what he had seen from CCOA this year at school. He said they started off in football and that they had flag football which was very difficult for the officials to referee since they had never done it before. Gary said he felt they did a fair job in football and experienced a few problems with the officials not showing up on time. As an example, at one time he had to referee a couple of games. After the season, he talked to Mr. Bayne and they talked about the performance of CCOA and how he would try to improve it. Then came Volleyball and the officiating at Volleyball he would rate "poor". He felt with the officials being paid as professionals, they should do an outstandign job. It wasn't done. At the end of the season, he talked with Mr. Bayne and he said he would try and improve basketball. There had been a lot of bad calls, not very professional work on the floor and on the scorekeeper1s part. He talked to Mr. Bayne about it and he said he would
