Senator Nalder states that she is worried about setting a precedent. There is no base stipend for the Executive Board. Point of Information from Senator Romero that we can alter but the base is $75 per month. Senator Jackson states that the stipend should have been increased before this but I am against over a 50% raise. I would be willing to approve $750.00. Senator Pobst states that she agrees with Senator Smith when you look at all the money he has saved the students of this university in tuition and parking. Senator Turner states that most of the work for tuition was done over the Summer when no one else was in the office. There are a lot of times when the Senate is not here at midnight and all hours of the night with Joel when he is here. He is at a great disadvantage not being able to work for minimum wage. Senator Stephenson states that the Yell editor makes $850 a month and our President should too. He puts in the hours and no one should question this. Senator Martin asks if we are going to raise this stipend then we should raise the rest of them. Senator Pida states that the money should be approved on his merit. He should be getting his just pay. I would really hate to see a part-time job get in the way of student concerns. Motion to call for the question by Senator Nalder, seconded by Senator Turner. Motion fails 10-9-0. Senators Sabatini, Fisher, Birdsell, Bioxo, Yan, Yohe, Jackson, Romero, and Pobst opposed. Senator Nalder states that you don't need to look at the percentage just look at what he has done. Senator Smith asks President Kostman what time he left campus last night? Senator Fisher asks if you people have any balls at all? If this discussion is going to be about how much he makes by the hour then put his on a hourly wage like Chrisi and have him clock in and out. These were set by the Executive Board. Our budget is getting smaller but we are increasing stipends. Put them on the clock. Senator Yohe states that we need to have accountability to our constituents and I don't know how I am going to explain this to mine. This was presented as $700 and now we are raising it to $850. To put one thing on the agenda and then come in here and change it is not fair. President Kostman states that he disagrees with Senator Yohe because these meetings are open to the public and anyone can come here and listen. To Senator Fisher, show a little more SENATE MINUTES NO. 23-18 page eleven VIII. NEW BUSINESS CONT. respect for your fellow Senators. I hope that you as Senators didn't sit at that meeting and come up with a figure that you wanted stipends and come here and hope to achieve that goal, because that could be considered collusion. Senator Turner states that Joel ran unopposed for President and that says something. That people want him in the office. There is no respectable price to offer this man for the job he does. This discussion is ridiculous he sits around and thinks of ways to save students money and you all see the results. Senator Bioxo states that this has become a sermon giving meeting. Let's pay him what we think he is worth for what he has done. Senator Sabatini states that when he saw this on the agenda he went and asked his constituents what they thought and overwhelmingly they thought we should give him a raise. Senator Yohe states that he feels that we are violating the Constitution and if he is wrong then he apologizes. President Kostman states that if this waits the Executive Board won't get paid until the end of June. Point of Personal Privilege from Senator Turner. Senator Stephenson states that everyone should vote yes if you can justify the raise, i Point of Information from Senator Jackson the we are voting on the amendment. Move into a vote on the amendment. Motion passes 13-5-0. Senators Fisher, Yohe, Martin, Jackson, and Romero opposed. Move into discussion on the amended motion. Point of Personal Privilege by Senator Nalder. Senator Romero states that he wants to hear discussion about the Vice President and Senate President stipends. There is a big discrepancy in the stipends. Senator Birdsell states that the Vice President deserves a raise. Senator Martin states that he can't justify a $250 difference. Senator Yohe states that the fact that we waived the Constitution that this is unfair to the Constituents. The Constitution is written for a reason and not to be blown off. I will vote no. Senator Bioxo states that just because we gave the President a raise that we should give the others a raise. Move into a vote. Motion passes 12-4-1. Senators Fisher, Martin, Yohe, and Jackson opposed. Senator Stephenson abstaining. Senator Turner returns. Point of Personal Privilege by Senator Birdsell. E.

In the event any action is to be taken the meeting will be opened under NRS 241:000-241:037 The Senate President has requested this and the discussion will pertain to Senators concerns about other Senators only. The meeting was closed for the personnel session. The meeting was reopened after the personnel session. IX. OPEN DISCUSSION SENATE MINUTES NO. 23-18 page eleven c IX. OPEN DISCUSSION CONT. SENATOR TURNER pass. SENATOR STEPHENSON states that he just spoke with John Allen who is the head of a Tenants Rights Task Force and I am going to meet with him tomorrow at 4 p.m. to talk about setting up a umbrella for students who live off campus so they know their rights. SENATOR SMITH thanks Willie for the pledge. Thanks to Joel. Carrows is very safe. The Banquet was fun and the Post banquet was even more fun. Yohe keep and open mind. Pleas talk to me about your concerns. I will now take things more personally. SENATOR YAN nothing at this time. SENATOR SICILIANO states that it is freezing in here. I really hate the derogatory remark from Senator Fisher. I was concerned with the base amount for stipends being changed. I prefer the Spanish version. The banquet was fun. SENATOR ROSENTHAL says thanks to Joel. I am getting tired of the back and forth debate that goes no where. SENATOR FISHER states that there was nothing derogatory remarks that he made. A lot of stupid thing are said in these meetings and I will tell you if I feel that you have made a stupid remark and you have the option of doing the same. I can defend myself. Respect is something that is earned and I will not give it freely to all of you just because you are Senators. In this room I may not respect you but as soon as we leave this room you are all my friends. On Saturday May 15 my birthday party at Sharks and everyone is invited. SENATOR SABATINI pass. SENATOR VODRAZKA nothing at this time. SENATOR PIDA states that it takes balls to increase a stipend in front of the President . I went to Carson City with Joel and I was really impressed with Sue Wagner. SENATOR MANGUAL apologizes to the press for calling them fruitcakes. SENATOR MARTIN asks what happened to the microphone? I have been listening to this for over a month and the language gets really out of hand and it is really inappropriate. Leave the personal attacks for after the meetings. I have a great respect for Joel and he is worth the money but that great a raise-no. SENATOR YOHE states that there is a difference between and open mind and and opinion. Slick Willie report- The new taxes will throw us back to the stone age and maybe if we are lucky maybe the iron age. There will also be a Premarital Sex tax as a continuing source of revenue. SENATOR BIOXO states to Senator Fisher that he is anatomically right I don't have any balls. In the context that you meant the comment it was an insult as a lack of courage. Sorry about eating during the meeting. SENATOR JACKSON states that the things that Joel has done he has not done alone, so he shouldn't get all the credit. The i semester has gone well and I think that we have a stronger Senate SENATE MINUTES NO. 23-18 page eleven IX. OPEN DISCUSSION CONT. than when I first started. SENATOR POBST thanks Jami for the banquet. Thanks to Joel and the Executive Board for all they have done. We need more E&P events. To Scott-where are you getting free food? SENATOR TURNER asks if the Resolution has been sent to the right people? Everyone in this room has the right to speak so I have the right to speak. Everyone goes about it in a different way but you shouldn't fault someone for the way that they go about it. Let people speak and say what ever it is they have to say. SENATOR SABATINI states that he has talked to a lot of you in the year or so that I have been around and I have seen a lot of people come and go. I am sorry if I didn't get to know all of you better. Just remember that outside of this room we are still all friends. In case you haven't heard I am resigning at the end of this meeting. I am going to Guam for 6 months and I will be back in January so I will see all of you then. SENATE PRESIDENT PRO-TEMPORE ROMERO states that it is nice to see a full Senate. I was puzzled about the duplicate funding requests but now that I know that a Director did it then I should have held her more accountable. Vice President Held requests a Senator to sit on the committee to find a new Preschool Director in the Fall. Happy Birthday to Scott. Goodbye to Andy. SENATE PRESIDENT BENNEMAN states that respect is something that is earned. We need more of that in here. About the increases if you want you could reduce them to $75. I am not here for the money I am here for the experience. If I would have been a Senator I would have voted no on the increases. Scott I am looking forward to your party. Andy, we will miss you. You have brought a little lightenment and a little fun and we will miss that. X. ADJOURNMENT Motion to adjourn by Senator Turner, seconded by Senator Sabatini. Move into a vote. Motion passes 18-0-0.
