R-20 RESOLUTION 80/81/19 SGA’S POSITION ON IAN SMITH LECTURE AT KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY
BY: Randy Tosh, Mark Zimmerman
WHEREAS there is a need for the Student Senate to take a formal stand on the issue of Ian Smith presenting a lecture at Kansas State University, and
WHEREAS there is a need to communicate this position to the student body and the campus community in the form of a press release, and
WHEREAS a press statement has been written in regard to Ian Smith’s presence as a lecturer on the Kansas State University campus on Friday, October 31, 1980, at 10:30 a.m.
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
SECTION 1. Student Senate approve and support on behalf of the student body, the press statement that has been written on behalf of the Kansas State University Student Governing Association:
In the light of the conflict of public interests currently surrounding the Landon Lecture to be given by former Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith on Friday, October 31, 1980, the majority of the Kansas State University Student Governing Association believes it is important to present a stand on the issue at hand. The majority of SGA support Mr. Smith’s right to speak on the Kansas State University campus The majority of SGA also believes that Mr. Smith should speak under the title of Landon Lecture series. The majority of SGA believes this position to be in the best interest of not only several campus interest groups, but also of the University and the campus community.
In supporting Mr. Smith’s right to speak on campus, the majority of SGA believes they are supporting the main purpose of this University: education. If the text of the former Prime Minister’s speech itself is viewed as un-educational, education will have taken place through classroom discussions and personal exchanges concerning the issue of his presence. The experience of having Mr. Smith speak is in itself enlightening.
Concerning the title of Landon Lecture: The majority of SGA believes the title does carry an honor, but an honor which they believe is not given to the speaker, but to the educational significance of circumstances surrounding the speaker. The title of Landon Lecture, as seen by the majority of serves to highlight that the speaker has a unique significance, whether positive or negative, and that there is value in having that person speak. This is not to say that they support what Mr. Smith stands for, what he has done, or what he may have to say. They understand the feelings and support the right of those who wish to peacefully oppose Mr. Smith’s presence on this campus. Yet in view of the educational significance of his appearance, they believe that it is right for him to appear behind the Landon podium.
R-21 SGA in addition, will make all efforts needed to provide factual information concerning Mr. Smith’s past as Prime Minister of Rhodesia. The majority of student government is also ready to make a financial contribution in any way possible to facilitate the distribution of this information through existing channels. By these efforts it is hoped all will have the opportunity to become aware of Mr. Smith’s background, political philosophy, and degree of professional success.
In its position, the majority of the Kansas State University Student Governing Association hopes to uphold the rights of those wishing to hear Mr. Smith speak, as well as the rights of those protesting his upcoming presence on campus.
SECTION 2. Student Senate continue to respond in appropriate ways to represent its entire constituency and meet the educational needs of the entire University community through this lecture.
SECTION 3. Any financial contribution made to the compiling and distribution of factual information in regard to Ian Smith will be funded through the advertising budget of the President of the Student Body.

DIRECTORS REPORTS STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT - Randy - Randy went over his Mid-Year Report which will be printed in the Collegian. Here are a few of the high lights. Have attempted to fulfill the #1 priority of consistent and effective communication. Senate has expanded their living group visitation procedure and the director of public relations has developed a weekly ad in the Collegian containing news from Randy and Mark Zimmerman. KSU is a member of the American Student Association, a national lobbying organization. Randy attended the conference in August in Washington, D.C. Approx. 600 delegates were there. K-State does have one of the top SGAs in the country. Tom Duffy is the ASA National President. In May, Randy was appointed to serve as chairman of the seven-member Student Advisory Comm. to the Kansas Board of Regents. Fiscal Year 1982 priorities for KSU were adopted: increased funding for student financial assistance, added financial support of career planning & placement, an 8.1% increase in student wages, a 100% fee waiver for graduate teaching assistants, and money to reimburse student unions for non-student usage. They have given support to the UFM program on the K-State campus also. Support has also been given to make the renovation of Nichols Gym the #1 capital improvement item at KSU. Support for increased funding for libraries at Regent institutions has been postponed until a report can be obtained from two separate task force groups. One has been appointed by the Governor and the other by the Board of Regents to study and make recommendations in regard to library funding. Reports are due to the Legislature next January. On campus, the final week policy has been revised. Last semester Student Senate reapportioned the $2.25 Union Annex I fee into the student activity fee & a new account, Union Repair & Replacement Fund. $1.00 more to the activity fee ($31,000) and $1.25 to Union ($38,000). This will help during allocations. Steps have been taken to expand All-University Open House, to include both academic programs and social events. The social events will be funded entirely from the New Student Recruitment Task Force which receives its funds from the Manhattan Chamber of Commerce. Student Senate will soon be faced with ratifying or nullifying a decision to commit 2.5 million student dollars to the building of a new coliseum. We are happy to welcome Kathy Lungren, the new Students’ Attorney. Kathy graduated from K-State and Washburn Univ. School of Law. She has been active in the State ASK lobby group and has previous legal experience. Two areas not yet satisfactorily resolved are student funding of UFM and funding of minority groups.

DIRECTORS REPORTS ACTING SOCIAL SERVICE DIRECTOR - Liz Gowdy - The Social Service Council was started back in 1974 due to a lack of communication all around. The Social Service Handbook can be referred to for basic information about each group. The purpose of the Council is to provide a service to the students and to provide a service to the individual services themselves. The Council met over the summer. Most services were open during the summer although not funded for the summer months. Constitution for the Council is in-the process of being approved. Will participate as a unified group at the Activities Carnival on Sept. 14. This is a good way to make students aware of the services. Working on a Social Service Survey. A paper has been written stating the problems the Social Services face. A paper has also been written on salary increases for Social Service staff persons. The Council needs to find some sort of funding from the outside. Need to come up with a general Social Service Handbook for directors. When a new director comes in they can be lost as to who to go to for what. The knowledge is just not provided. WOMEN’S RESOURCE CENTER Mary Sue Holm, Asst. Dir. - Cathy Stackpole, the director, had a class tonight and could not be here. Reach 800 people last year. Have a lot of programs going for this year. CETA person was in the office this summer doing filing, etc. Things are well organized now. Cathy was appointed to the Commission on the Status of Women over the summer. The Manhattan Women’s Center funded half the first newsletter which was put in your boxes. Taking subscriptions. Volunteer workshop will be held the weekend after the Activities Carnival. Will try to expand the office hours to include evening hours. SECURITY & TRAFFIC DEPT - Chief Art Stone - The department falls under University Facilities. He answers to Gene Cross. Sections in the department are: patrol, security officers, dispatch area, records section, traffic section,
M-43 investigation section. Chief Stone has been on campus 8 or 9 months. He has been to Senate once before. The department does not make the rules and regulations. They only enforce these. Other committees make the rules. They are approved by the Board of Regents and then become state laws. The hiring of students as parking lot patrol checkers is a pilot program. They only give parking citations. The students go through about an 8-hour training session. Crime statistics are printed monthly in the “In View”, the faculty-staff newsletter. The department works closely with the Riley County Police Dept. They have a very good relationship. The reason for the extension of the time the lots are open to anyone was that it was felt everyone who uses the facilities should pay to use them, even evening students and workers. Will be a back-off on evenings when events, such as basketball games, are held. In the core areas of the campus there are, normally 2 patrol cars on duty and there are a number of foot patrolmen. Charles Long is the chair of the Traffic & Parking Council. They make the final recommendations of regulations to the Board of Regents. Recommendations for changes in the regulations will be due to President Acker by October 1. They then go to the Board of. Regents to become law, if approved, for next year. Traffic & Parking Council meetings are open and students are urged to attend and air their grievances in the regulations, etc. The bumper sticker-style permits are also a pilot program. The campus has one radar unit. Spaces available Total - 7,000 250 – students, 2,000 faculty/staff, remaining 4,750 are either students/faculty/staff, or open The reason the misuse fee was raised from $3 to $7.50 was the $3 fine seemed to be of no effect. The thought was that if the fine was raised there would be fewer tickets issued. They were also looking for uniformity throughout the state institutions. Misuse fees and parking permits - The money raised goes for the maintenance, etc, building of new lots & hiring of staff. Due to state law, money cannot be used for street repairs. Chief Stone has no vote on the Traffic & Parking Council. Have more bike racks coming. Making a plea for bike riders to obey traffic regulations. According to state law, it is illegal to ride a bike on the sidewalks. STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT - Randy Tosh - John Dunbar, Director of the Cooperative Extension Service at K-State, was named Dean of Agriculture & Director of the Ag. Experiment Station Thursday by President Acker. Will have some open meetings (hearings) on the traffic & parking regulations in the near future. Watch the Collegian for these dates and times. The Rec Complex is tentatively scheduled to open Sept. 15. Student Legislative Network will be recruiting for members soon. Mark Skinner on the Cabinet is in charge of this. Long Range Planning Committee will meet next Tuesday. One item to be discussed is making K-State on all-pedestrian campus.

DIRECTORS REPORTS STUDENT BODY PRESIDENT - Randy Tosh - Went to a meeting of the Interim Committee of the House Ways and Means and testified on the library issue. U.F.M. Task Force - Angela Scanlan, chair - Met over the summer. The task force members were: Pat Bosco, Doug Dodds, Cathy Flinchbaugh, Liz Gowdy, Mark Knoll, Debbie Peterson, Angela Scanlan, Senator Merrill Werts, Steve Bollman, Randy Tosh, Mark Zimmerman. Will be setting a deadline for UFM to come to Senate to report on the success of some of the projects in the following report. The following figures were compiled by Pat Bosco: COST IN PERCENT FOR LOCAL PROGRAM SALARY % % SGA $ 8,350 27% with benefits 7% $ 8,934 23% Other Income 26,402 73% with benefits 10% 29,042 77% Total $34,752 100% $ 37,976 100% OPERATING EXPENSES SGA 6,100 43% Other Income 7,875(1) 57% (1) Est. Totals Salary Operating Expenses Total % SGA $ 8,934 $ 6,100 $15,034(2) 29% Other Income 29,042 7,875 36,917 71% Total $37,976 $13,975 $51,951 100%
M-52 (2) Includes benefits, all rent, Fall/Spring/Summer allocation. The following is the U.F.M. Task Force Report dated September 1980: The goals of the U.F.M. Task Force are: 1. to comprise acceptable data comparing student versus community utilization, 2. to research future United Way funding, 3. to research the feasibility of a fee system, 4. to research the possibilities of fund-raising a. Donor Club, b. Alumni (UFM), 5. to research grants - base of support, 6. to research the potential of local funding, 7. to develop a flow chart of all monies and people working in all projects. This will be in the form of a graph. a. to become aware of any overlaps in their program, b. demonstrates funding relationships from student sources and non-student sources. The Task Force recommends: 1. The enrollment card system started in the Spring of 1980 be continued and improved. For the sake of accurate record keeping, these cards should be kept for at least one year. Each enrollment card should tell the number of hours enrolled in at KSU, as well as provide general information about the student. 2. The teacher should take roll at each class so that UFM will have a more accurate knowledge of student versus community participation. 3. We recommend that UFM strongly consider implementing a fee system as a fund- raising alternate. 4. UFM should look into the feasibility of implementing an ad section in their brochures. These ads would be sponsored by area businesses and would help pay for the brochures. 5. A graph of their total fiscal picture should be done at least annually by UFM. In conclusion, the Task Force came to a greater understanding of the diversity of U.F.M.’s funding. SGA provides a relatively small, but very important, base of support. In fact SGA provides the only stable financial support that UFM receives. The rest of U.F.M.’s support comes largely from grants, which end at different times during the year and are very unstable. UFM really has very little idea whether these grants will provide funding in the future. This is why the Task Force sees the necessity for UFM to stray somewhat from the traditional philosophy of the “free university”. The size and scope of UFM now demands greater accountability. The sophistication of their program has far outgrown the sophistication of their record keeping. We recognize the dilemma they are faced with, but also see the need for a fee system and for much more accurate record keeping. UNIVERSITY LEARNING NETWORK - Sue Astley Director - This fall marks the 10th year for ULN. Call volume has had a 200% increase. Last year: Had 31,467 questions. The largest request was for phone numbers & addresses. Half of the callers were female and living off campus. 80% of the callers were single. Making an extra effort to reach freshmen. Have 23 volunteers that put in 2-5 hrs./week. Cindy Buse is the new Assistant Director. Have new posters & phone stickers. Campus Security is helping fund the phone stickers because they list “Emergency Number - Campus Police/Fire – 2-6400”. Will continue the taped info. service. Received more money for new tapes. Receive 20-30 calls/month. WOMEN’S RESOURCE CENTER - Liz Gowdy for Cathy Stackpole Director – We appreciate and accept the apology from Finance Committee regarding the defacing of materials.
COMMITTEE REPORTS SENATE OPERATIONS - Rob Altland - Working on revising the Posting Regulations in conjunction with Alpha Phi Omega. A Senate Aide Chart has been made by Dan Chase to coordinate activities of the aides. This will be posted in the office.
M-53 COMMUNICATIONS - Scott Long for Dave Lehman - Visitation Reporting Chart is posted by the mailboxes. Hopefully, Senate Week will be later in the semester.

DIRECTORS REPORTS UNIVERSITY FOR MAN - Julie Coates and Rosemary Dukelow - They spoke to the recommendations made to UFM by the Senate Task Force Committee. 1. Enrollment cards should be filled out and should include the number of hours a student is taking. This has been done. 2. Informal roll should be taken the first three class meetings and class leaders should record the number of students and non-students. Class leaders have been asked to do this. 3. UFM shall look into various fee systems, especially a registration fee system. A limited fee system has been implemented in a few classes. Hopefully, experience with this limited fee system will help UFM as they examine the implications of charging fees. Class participants are being asked for an evaluation of their UFM experience & their reaction to fee implementation. 4. UFM shall investigate the possibilities of implementing an advertising section in the brochures. Since advertising does not meet with United Way guidelines, they are negotiating with United Way. 5.

UFM has begun the process of writing a proposal to CFCBFSEI in Washington to receive funds for a professional audit by a CPA firm.

COMMITTEE REPORTS SENATE OPERATIONS - Rob Altland - An agenda for the Retreat was drawn up at the meeting. FINANCE - LewAnn Schneider - Met Wednesday and discussed Senate Bill 80/81/43. These are our feelings: The committee feels that a Senate Retreat at Rock Springs Ranch would be beneficial, not only for Student Senators, but also for other SGA funded organizations. However, the committee does not feel that the student activity fee should be used in this manner. Although the committee was not asked for an opinion, we do not support this bill because we feel that it sets a poor precedent and is not consistent with our past behavior. We feel that future retreats would be more beneficial if a special committee was set up in November with their sole responsibility being the planning of the retreat for the new Student Senators. Furthermore, we feel that all candidates should be informed of the retreat prior to the elections, and then this retreat could be mandated attendance and finances would be the responsibility of the individual Student Senators. A request was approved for additional funds for Arts & Sciences Council. Finance Comm. does not approve paying for noon hour usage of Ahearn. Four budget shifts were approved.
