I’m here this afternoon with Eugene Reineke, but you mentioned usually you’re known as Gene. Reineke: That’s correct, Mark. DePue: Why don’t you tell us where we are. Reineke: We’re here at my current employer, which is Hill & Knowlton, Inc. It’s a public relations firm, and we’re located at the Merchandise Mart in downtown Chicago. DePue: Which has a fascinating history itself. Someday I’ll have to delve into that one. We’re obviously here to talk about your experiences in the Edgar administration, but you had a lot of years working with Jim Thompson as well, so we’re going to take quite a bit of time. In today’s session, I don’t know that we’ll get to much of the Edgar experience because you’ve got enough information to talk about before that time, which is valuable history for us.

  • EL GAUCHO $81 'Fee' Increase
    EL GAUCHO $81 'Fee' Increase Vol. 48 - No. 111 Santa Barbara, California Monday, April 22, 1968 Approved by Regents By NINA PINSKY EG City Editor DAVIS—What Governor Reagan called a «sm all step that still confronts us*’ and what some Regents referred to as ‘ taxation with representation” resulted in an increased $81 student fee, passed Friday by the Board of Regents. The increase, which will bring an estimated additional $8 million to the University, as passed by a 17-6 vote after a two- hour discussion. Santa Barbara students will now pay $348 annually or $116 per quarter. Out of state student fees have also been increased by $400, so that at Santa Barbara out of state students will now pay $ 748 a year. Reasons for passage of the fee hike were attributed to a need to offset increases in fees for students in financial need, to add $2 to the $73 per quarter Incidental Fees, to supplement services performed by the Dean of Students Offices, and to give financial aid to those economically underprivileged students who could not normally attend the University. Broken down in terms of actual dollars, an estimated $3 million will offset the increase itself, an additional $600,000 will go toward the Incidental fees, $600,000 will be added to the Dean of Students offices, $3.725 million will be used for scholarships and their administration, and an estimated $1.7 million will go TWO PUSHERS-----Members of the winning Villa-Marina pushcart team round a curve on their way to toward increased revenues.
