Krukowski advises Seminars, page 2 Sitting somewhere, studying something SA official optimistic about winning suit by Peter Hansen tudent Association Vice President Vince Quandt said an oral argu ment held Thursday in Madison "can only help our chances" of Swinning the appeal that SA and the Union Policy Board have filed against UW System and UWM officals for the right to use segregated fees for legal costs in lawsuits. In 1988 a court decided that student organizations do not have the right to use segregated fees to pay for legal costs in court cases. SA and UPB have claimed that this violates"a state statute which gives students the right to defend themselves. "We should have the right to keep student interest in mind," he said, adding that SA has jurisdiction over only 6 percent of segregated fees. SA's lawyer, Walter Kelly, who Quandt called "intelligent and charismatic," has won all three cases he has brought to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Quandt said Kelly "smashed" the points brought up by the defense attorney at the hourlong argument Quandt said the judges, of the Wisconsin District IV Appeals Court, seemed to be in SA's favor, displaying a "Come on, let's be realistic" attitude toward the lawyer representing the System and UWM officials. However, UWM Dean of Students Carmen Witt, a defendant in the suit, said the judges were objective in their questioning. She said the issue is the interpretation of Wis. Statute 36*.09(5), which reads, in part: "Students in consultation with the chancellor and subject to the final confirmation of the (UW System) Board (of Regents) shall have the responsibility for the disposition of those student fees which constitute substantial support for campus student activities." —Post photo by Robert Shatzman Witt said the assistant state attorney general, who is representing the This photo shows both contrast between horizontal and vertical lines and contrast between last University and the System, argued that the use of segregated fees for week's bitter cold temperatures and Monday's warm, no-jacket weather, as a UWM student legal counsel is under the jurisdiction of the regents, while Kelly studies next to Lapham Hall in the warm afternoon sun. argued that the regents do not have complete discretion.
