t • I i f Senators see unit criteria as budget cut

By KARLA HUFENBACH TM Managing Editor A six unit enrollment requirement for ASCC funding for scholastic competitions has been approved unanimously by the ASCC Senate. "This should streamline the budget for this fiscal year, and prevent us from going in the red like last year," said Jesus Gomez^ ASCC president On its first time out, the bill written by Party Whip Allen Holland and Senator Tammy Olmedo, was voted into committee for review. The Finance and Budget Committee headed by Senate President Pro-Tem Rudolph Ritt, recommended passage of the bill with an amendment limiting it to the current fiscal year. "This bill gave the budget committee a chance to work, and it provided the oppor­ tunity for more people in the Senate to be involved in policy making decisions," said Kelly Kafel, ASSC vice president and Senate chair, Its approval comes as a direct result of a recently passed Senate bill that lowers the required enrollment for club and organiza­ tion participation to one unit. In other ASCC business, the annual leadership conference is scheduled for Jan. 10, 11, 12, at Harbor Town Marina Resort in Ventura. The $35 cost includes room, meals and attendance to all workshops. Special seminars are scheduled that will help motivate students toward success in leadership. Social activities are also scheduled including: volleyball, tennis, swimming and a dinner/dance cruise.
