APPROVAL OF MINUTES Ruled out of order. IV. BOARD AND COMMITTEE REPORTS A. SENATE COMMITTEE REPORTS SENATOR CAMPBELL~Ad Hoc met a week ago and the changes on the Constitution are finished. Are being submitted for the agenda for next week. SENATOR ZUREK—There is a Ways and Means Committee meeting tomorrow at 5:15 p.m. We have a lot of Funding Requests to cover so it is very important that all the members attend this meeting. I also want everyone to note that item D, F, G, and I of the New Business are out of order. These items were never passed by the Ways and Means Committee so I don't know why anyone would put them on the Senate Agenda. In fact, these items are on my agenda for tomorrow. I also have a statement for the record: Last week when I came to school for my 6 o'clock senate meeting I found out that there was suppose to be a Ways and Means meeting at 4:40 p.m. that day. It is strange that being the chair of the committee I knew nothing about it. I would like to make a complaint on record that Toby Cole did an agenda for my CONSOLIDATED STUDENTS • UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA 4 5 0 5 SOUTH MARYLAND PARKWAY • LAS VEGAS, NEVADA 89154-2009 • (702) 8 9 5 - 3 4 7 7 • FAX (702) 8 9 5 - 4 6 0 6 SENATE MEETING 26-13 / MARCH 11, 1996 committee without checking the time with me and what's more, he didn't even inform me that there was even a meeting. I didn't get a copy of the agenda from him and not even a note in my box. this was done after I repeatedly asked him and his assistant for the Funding Requests so that I can put it on my agenda, but he said no-he will do and will give it to me. Furthermore, this past Wednesday I wrote an agenda for today, for which Toby wanted to add items to, so he was entrusted with it. He said that he will Time stamp and post it, which again was not done in order to make me look like I'm not doing my job, when in fact, it is Toby Cole who is not doing his. All of this after the Senate did him a favor to waive a Bylaw because he couldn't make his grades. I was one of the few who opposed this so now I wonder if this has anything to do with it. Let me assure all the organizations that as soon I receive their requests I make my agenda. I'm not the one to procrastinate. SENATOR FLEISCHMAN-Thanks to SENATOR SOLOMON for getting the warning signs printed up for watching your valuables. There has been someone assigned to be in charge of student security as well as the shuttle program and that person's a close acquaintance of SENATOR FLEISCHMAN's. If that is a problem with the Senate, she is willing to step down from her chair of the Campus Safety. B. DIRECTOR REPORTS a. Nevada Student Affairs-the meeting to become a certified registrar is the twenty-first (21) at 6:00 p.m. b. Student Information—Web Page is having some technical difficulties.

RESIDENCE HALL LIAISON NRHH of the month awards were held. They were the regional winners. Dave Brown won advisor category. They are being submitted for national competition. Forum for candidates went well, all but two (2) candidates attended. E. BUSINESS MANAGER REPORT Business Manager Karla Kirk advised the senate of the current financial situation of KUNV. Asked if Senate wanted their E-Docs and hourly time sheets read off as expenditures at each meeting, Senators don't want E-Docs but do want hourly time sheets read off. Informed the Senate of the Executive Board expenditures for the week preceding. V. PUBLIC COMMENT [in accordance with N.R.S. 241.020 (2)(c)(3)] No comment from the gallery.

Discussion of fire hazards and OSHA violations for KUNV and the Rebel Yell by Michelle Taylor, Theresa Chiang, Don Fuller, and Theresa Hinds, as submitted by SENATOR CARROLL; Motion to allow Theresa Hinds to speak to the Senate made by SENATOR CARROLL. SENATE PRESIDENT SMITH grants that motion. Theresa Hinds spoke to the Senate and answered questions regarding the fire hazards and OSHA violations for KUNV and the Rebel Yell. Discussed possible solutions and temporary solutions to the problem, and what needs to be done in the building to rectify the situation. Dr. Terry Piper spoke to the Senate regarding the violations and needs for immediate change for these two programs. Motion to combine and table Items B, C of the supplemental agenda made by SENATOR FLEISCHMAN, seconded by SENATOR FENDELL. (Supplemental Agenda Item C-New Business—Formation of an Ad Hoc Senate Compliance committee to propose solutions for fire hazards and OSHA violations for KUNV and the Rebel Yell, as submitted by SENATOR CARROLL;) Move into a vote. Motion passes by unanimous acclimation. Motion to move to Board and Committee Reports-subsection c-made by SENATOR MOORE, seconded by SENATOR SOLOMON. Move into a vote. Motion passes 21-0-0. Director Araiza—has put all of the results in the Senator's boxes. All of the paperwork is done for the next month and the elections in April. Has breakdowns of voter turnout areas if anyone wants them. Next meeting is tomorrow at 6:30. The fines for the candidates that did not make the general will be dropped. VI. UNFINISHED BUSINESS A. Action Item: Discussion/approval of Executive Board nominee, Eric Feldman, for open seat on CSUN Judicial Council; Motion to remove from the table made by SENATOR CARROLL, seconded by SENATOR HOWARD. Motion to approve made by SENATOR CARROLL, seconded by SENATOR PRICE. SENATOR PEREZ questioned why this item was on the agenda if there was no Executive Board meeting to re-nominate this candidate. The Senator was told that there are often concurrent items on the agendas for Senate and for the Executive Board. Eric Feldman stated to the Senate that he has asked for nothing more than the same consideration that has been given to all of the other applicants. He has conceded to the Senate's request that he go through the same interviewing process that they did and is still not being given the same consideration. He has been included in a non-existent situation with the Executive Board and therefore not given an equal chance as the other applicants. Would prefer to be chosen or not chosen, as the case may be, on his merits and not on a feud the Senate has with the Executive Board. SENATOR MOORE stated that Eric has done everything he can't the best of his ability to become an involved student and that should be taken into consideration. 3 SENATE MEETING 26-13 / MARCH 11, 1996 SENATOR FLEISCHMAN apologized to Eric Feldman for him feeling that way toward the Senate, but it is her job as a Senator to be sure that everything she is voting on is above board and by the rules. SENATOR AGUERO inquired of Vice-President Mills as to how the positions were advertised and for how long. Vice-President Mills replied that they were advertised with fliers, and the same advertisements for the first three available positions were not put up for the fourth position opening. SENATOR KIMMET-This is a ridiculous situation and this candidate is being penalized because of this particular system. The decisions being made on this nomination were purely political and he gives his support to Eric Feldman. Eric Feldman stated that at this time, based on what he's heard in the last five minutes of this meeting, he would like to withdraw his application for the Judicial Council. VII. NEW BUSINESS A. Clarification for Mike Castillo on stipend amount and contract dates. Motion to approve made by SENATOR MOORE, seconded by SENATOR CAMPBELL. Mike Castillo's contract dates were approved through May 15 and they are usually approved through April 30. Will be placed on the next agenda since it is not an action item. B. Action Item: Discussion/approval for appointment of Peyman Masachi to open Senate seat for the College of Health Sciences; Ruled out of order. C.

UNIV UNIVERSITY OF NEVADA LAS VEGAS M E M O R A N D U M DATE: September 14, 1995 TO: Michele Taylor, Director Moyer Student Union FROM: Brad Manning, Occupational Safety Officer Environmental Health and Safety RE: Fire and Life Safety Review As you requested, I reviewed your summary of the Fire and Life Safety deficiencies we noted during our July/August 1995 building tour. I have categorized the problems by degree of severity for each floor. They are listed below in numerical order, number 1 being the most critical. L Third Floor There are currently no fire extinguishers located on the third floor. The fire alarm is inaudible on entire floor due to KUNV music. There is storage of combustible material in the southwest stairwell. The large ice-machine located in the fire exit stairwell needs to be removed. Emergency lighting is necessary at all third floor exits. The northwest stairwell emergency light is inoperative. The access lock to the fire exits doors must be removed or switched to other door. The northwest interior stairwell lights are out and need covers to protect them. 9) The fire exit signage and evacuation maps are missing. ,10) All fire exit signage bulbs are inoperative. 11) The posters and other combustible material must be removed from the hallway. 12) A 24" clearance must be maintained wherever there are no sprinklers. 13) All 1-hour fire doors that open to corridors must be closed. 14) Exhaust ventilation required in Rebel Yell darkroom. 15) The light cover is missing from exit signage. 16) The mail bins must be removed from backstage area. During the walk through, we noted the absence of fire sprinklers and fire alarm pull-stations on the third floor. We suggest that you consider installation of these systems during future remodeling/renovation planning.

There are several issues that I need to bring to your attention that have not yet been resolved but were documented in the August inspection. 1) There is no exhaust ventilation in the Rebel Yell Photographic Darkroom. Although an estimate to install an exhaust fan was obtained, it did not include asbestos abatement costs to remove the fireproofing insulation on the ceiling, where the fan is going to be installed. This could seriously complicate the installation of the exhaust fan. 2) The KUNLV Radio Station is still having problems maintaining their storage below the 24" clearance requirement from the ceiling 3) No additional fire horns have been installed on the third floor that will assure that the occupants can hear the fire alarm. An immediate plan of action needs to be drawn up and implemented to eliminate these safety concerns. Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. Thanks, Brad Manning
