Women's Resource Center,
ASUN bicker over future funds

A squabble about future funding has
materialized between representatives of the
Women's Resource Center and ASUN officials.
Sources close to the center say ASUN is
trying to put the center out of business in order
to expand the ASUN Recore Store. ASUN
claims innocence.
"They're trying to cut us back on fees
(student fee money for financing)," according
to center president Yoko Mosley. "We cannot
operate without funds-we need books to be up
to date and money to pay our phone bills. It's
really questionable what they do with their
money."
ASUN President Bruce Beecher said ASUN
hasn't given any money to any campus groups
yet because the ASUN budget was late this
year. It was approved by the regents last week.
"If they're saying that we're (ASUN) trying
to knock off the center, it is a bunch of crap,"
Beecher said. "There's no way we can fund all
the organizations requesting money this year
because our budget has been cut. We told them
we'd try to fund them the best we can, but that
we can't promise anything."
A special budget committee is responsible
for allocating ASUN's $5,500 programming
budget. It will meet after Thanksgiving vacation
to consider requests from many organizations
who have applied, including the center.
Another bone of contention between the
two groups involved concerns $300 that center
officers say ASUN owes them.
"We have phone bills, dated June 30," Sue
Brown of the center said. "We had money from
last year to pay them, but the bills came after
June 30 and the money that was reserved for
them was no longer there."
Beecher said the center spent its $500
allocation last year and had wanted to use $300
The University Women's Action Group
(UWAG) had left over. But the center couldn't
show on the books that the money had been

transferred from UWAG to the center, so it
reverted to the general fund at the end of the
year, Beecher said.
"Anything encumbered before June 30of
last year would be honored," Beecher said. "If
you can show the transfer, we'll honor it."
He said he thought it "ridiculous" that the
center keeps buying books and using the phone
when they have no assurance of funding from
ASUN.
Women on campus have been circulating a
petition supporting funding for the center.
Beecher said the petition can't "force" ASUN
to give it money, but that it could be used to
show the Budget Committee that the center has
student support.

unconventional
Saturday's anti-war rally in the Nebraska
Union was unconventional in almost every
sense. There were no signs, no sit-ins, none
of the classic demonstration
paraphernalia. ..except one classic
demonstration tactic: speeches.
About 50 people discussed
methods other than demonstrations to
end the Vietnam War Among speakers were
representatives from Free Theater, the Food
Cooperative, an underground FM radio
station, the Lincoln Gazette and the
Women's Resource Center.
Much of the discussion centered around
the combination of these activities in one
building to offer Lincoln citizens an
alternative to conventional liefestyle.
" You can influence people if you
establish yourself in these activities," one
student told the group. "We must offer an
outlet to interest people and maybe we can
change this society that created the Vietnam
War." The group then broke up to discuss
the health and well-being of their respective
organizations after deciding to meet again
