CAMPAIGN 1990
by Tom Kopacz STAFF REPORTER
The Election Commission Tuesday rejected presidential candidate Don Taylor's appeal to keep his name on the ballot. Dean of Students Charles Brown ruled Friday that Tay1or, a post-bacca laureate student, cannot run in the upcoming student body presidential elections because he is in his first semester at UCF and has no UCF grade point average. At the hearing, Taylor said it should be a formality because of an opinion is Jorge AlvareZ/CENTRAL FLORIDA FUTURE sued by UCF General Counsel Ash mun Kirk Healy Jr. (left) and Steve Ronzino listen to debaters at the Hot Topics forum on Monday night. Healy is reacting to Brown Tuesday morning. a statement made by Dr. Doug Reid of the National Coalition Against Pornography.

by Tom Kopacz STAFF REPORTER
The vice president for student affairs vetoed a student senate bill which would have paid for 500 student admissions to the UCF Theater. Dr. Le Vester Tubbs said he vetoed the bill because • he does not like providing free tickets to students. "Student government is not in the business of supporting academic departments," he said. He also said SG could buy tickets on consignment, then resell them to students at a reduced rate, adding that both he and University President Steven Altman disagree with providing allocations directly to students. Former Sen. Jeff Eberle, who introduced the bill, said he was disappointed with Tubbs' decision. "I feel that since students already pay for this in the Activi ties and Service Fee, they shouldn't have to pay an extra dollar or two for it," he said. Eberle resigned from the senate Monday because he is taking sixteen hours of engineering classes this semester.
