ASLC budget
avoids axe
byScott Erickson
of thr Pro11.a1 Log
The A!I!IO<:iatt.'CI Students of Lewis and
Qark'> budget has officially been spared the

In a meeting held ln!it Thursday , April
tb, Vire President for Student Affutr.:. Denm.,
Madson informed ASLC members that no

5~-t to balc1ncc ,1 $1.1 millton institution-wide
rot bad<.
The bottom line is there wUl be a cut
!TOm ASLC"s allocatiOn from last year com
pari:'d to thi~ year, but It will be due 100
pcn-cnt to the dccroase in enrollment ,· ~id
Madson.
"I'm glad. 1 feet like finely we're being
1\'('()bnized for what we do and the impor-
11nct ot it," <;aid ASLC Prcs1dcnt Amy Beacom.
r\SLC~ 1991'92 budget was approxi
INtdy $280,000, while the '92-'93 budget is
$2.68,000 That figure is based upon predicted
mrotlmcnt of 1493 students
Thclcwi and OarkCollegeof Arts and
Science> (as oppoS4..'<i to the graduate school
or the Northwest School of law) is actually
nptncncing a 25 percent budget increase.
However, that budget ex~n51on includes
upenditurcs that were not in last year's bud
gilt As a result, $1.1 million must be trimmed
from other places in the budget in order to fit
in n~;wcr projects.
I have mixed feelings about what was
n:q11IM1 of Student Affaln. In trus sttUAHO~
said Madson He noted that as Vice president
lor student affairs, he is mtended to be a
student advocate but at at the same timo an
ortidal of the administration .
He also noted that ASLCs budget pays
for ~rv1ccs that would not normally fall un
der the auspices of student government, Hke
CotiLgc Outdoors , 'ytnposia , dub sports and
the Student Academic Affairs Board. '1 sup
port with we do wtth this (ASLCsl budget,"'
wdMadson
In order to ovoid such a situation in the
future, Madson' " trying to have ASLCs bud
get removed from Student Affairs. Even
though the Student Affairs office has no ad
mlnistrativeco ntrol over ASLCs budgctf the
money appe.1rs in Student Affairs' account,
making it look larger than other diVisions on
campus (and therefore a more likely ~andi
datc ror budget cuts).
"'I'm tn favor of the Idea," sald Zach
Street, ASLC vtce president for budgct and
finance "lt will clear up these murky waters
In the future."
Another idc.l that Madson plans to pur

get them replaced.
The only catch to getting a new

obviouslyCa.n.ado. My
tnp to Japan was a

loved it, Its .1 beautiful
country. In Europe, I
hove been to Paris,
Amsterdam and Den

S: What do you think
about tho interaction
between American and
mtcmahonal student"
on our campu~?
B· I think it could be a

bad 'cause I signed up for a convcuatton

my evening classes

other stuff that came

This one time, we
tried to put some

1 think th~ o(
us who MC Ameri·

there's going to be a

C-<omplc we have
Asian studcJ1ts on

ASLC budget

The A!I!IO<:iatt.'CI Students of Lewis and

In a meeting held ln!it Thursday , April

Madson informed ASLC members that no

The bottom line is there wUl be a cut
!TOm ASLC"s allocatiOn from last year com
pari:'d to thi~ year, but It will be due 100

Madson.
"I'm glad. 1 feet like finely we're being
1\'('()bnized for what we do and the impor-
11nct ot it," <;aid ASLC Prcs1dcnt Amy Beacom.
r\SLC~ 1991'92 budget was approxi
INtdy $280,000, while the '92-'93 budget is
$2.68,000 That figure is based upon predicted
mrotlmcnt of 1493 students
Thclcwi and OarkCollegeof Arts and
Science> (as oppoS4..'<i to the graduate school
or the Northwest School of law) is actually
nptncncing a 25 percent budget increase.
However, that budget ex~n51on includes
upenditurcs that were not in last year's bud
gilt As a result, $1.1 million must be trimmed
from other places in the budget in order to fit
in n~;wcr projects.
I have mixed feelings about what was
n:q11IM1 of Student Affaln. In trus sttUAHO~
said Madson He noted that as Vice president
lor student affairs, he is mtended to be a
student advocate but at at the same timo an
ortidal of the administration .
He also noted that ASLCs budget pays
for ~rv1ccs that would not normally fall un
der the auspices of student government, Hke
CotiLgc Outdoors , 'ytnposia , dub sports and
the Student Academic Affairs Board. '1 sup
port with we do wtth this (ASLCsl budget,"'
wdMadson
In order to ovoid such a situation in the
future, Madson' " trying to have ASLCs bud
get removed from Student Affairs. Even
though the Student Affairs office has no ad
mlnistrativeco ntrol over ASLCs budgctf the
money appe.1rs in Student Affairs' account,
making it look larger than other diVisions on
campus (and therefore a more likely ~andi
datc ror budget cuts).
"'I'm tn favor of the Idea," sald Zach
Street, ASLC vtce president for budgct and
finance "lt will clear up these murky waters
In the future."

Just because you bought son~ ·
thmg from a store doesn't mean irs
safe. There are several products oo
store shelves which are hazards-not
only to you but to the environment as
well.
Don't assume a product 1s ·
free because there are no toxms hsted
on the label. The governm ent doesn't
require manufactures to list every in·
gredient if it doesn't violate "federal
safety standards."
&by powder, for example, con·
tams asbestos A product can be la
belled "nontoXJc'' if Jes:; than 50 per·
cent of the lab amm.als die within two
weeks of bemg exposed to the prod·
uct.
There are several ways to stop lht
culpnt. Alternative products can usu·
ally replace the evil one. Here are •
few examples.
Oven cleaners contain lye The
alternative ; Spnnkle water, followed
by layers of baking soda. Rub gently
W1th fine steel wool pad.
Permanent -ink pens and markers
contain harmful solvents like toluene.
xylene and ethanol. Alternative : Wa·
ter-based markers and pens.
Start thinking about the products
you are using and look for altema·
tives. You'll be helping to save your·
self, theenvironmcntand maybe some
money.
