Nine members of the High People's Coalition party
(THCLSD) who were disqualified for the March 16
ASUN election will contest in student court their removal
from the ballot, said Kirk Hemphill, THCLSD president
ial candidate.
The THCLSD members are ineligible for the election
because of improper signatures on their filing petitions,
according to Election Commissioner Karen Tejcka.
Tejcka said commission rules state that each candidate
must obtain 35 signatures from persons in the college they
want to represent. The nine had signatures on their
petitions from persons outside their colleges, she said.
The nine disqualified candidates and their colleges:
Arts and Sciences: Paul Bejot, John Cunningham, Jerry
Fairbanks, and Andrew Safarik; Engineering: Kevin Hyde;
and Teachers: Deb Lark in, Katherine Masek and Robert
Winkler.
Each THCLSD member was given a petition and a
copy of election rules, Hemphill said.
"Some of them noticed they needed people from their
own college, some didn't," he said. "We told them it
didn't matter because we . were going to contest it."

Agriculture College Advisory Board candidates were
inadvertently left off Wednesday's published list of ASUN
candidates.
Candidates:
Agriculture College Advisory Board: Agriculture Ec
onomics: Paul Hassler, Tracy Grasz; Agriculture Educa
tion, Mechanical Agriculture: Scott Eveland, Keith
Kubik; Agriculture Honors: General Agriculture, unde
clared: Tim Anthony, Lonnie Koepke, Chris Raun (SUN);
Animal Science: Brent Carter; Pre-Vet Science: Dan
Sandall; General Agronomy, Soil Science, Plant Path
ology: Mitchell Counce, Joe Keaschall, Charles Oeiler
mann (SUN); Food Science, Horticulture, Entymology,
Poultry Science: Karen Graham; Natural Resources: Bill
Schilling.
In addition, an error in the ASUN listing of candidates
included a Harlan Miller, which should be Milder, running
for second vice president, and Andy Fitzmorris and day
Smith are added to the list of independent Senate candidates.
Hemphill said he thinks 35 signatures is an excessive
number. He' said the election commission has waived that
requirement in past years. ,
The requirement is especially unfair to persons in
5rofessionaI and graduate colleges "when never more than
5 to SO people vote in their election ," he said.
None of the nine disqualified candidates was from the
business or professional colleges.
THCLSD members are preparing a brief which they
will submit to ASUN today, Hemphill said. The Senate is
obligated to forward their brief to student court, which
will review it and determine whether it will come up for
test decision
trial.
Hemphill said his party will ask for an injunction to
delay the election if student court does not make a
decision before election day.
However, Tejcka said she does not think this will affect
the election at all.
"Everyone else has complied with the rules," she said
"I think this is just a minority."
She added that she thinks student court will realize it
is necessary for potential candidates to obtain signatures
from persons in their colleges because those persons are
the constituency each candidate represents.

Student feedback is the main purpose for the open
hearing schedule approved by the Fees Allocation Board
(FAB) Thursday evening, according to Sherry Cole, FAB
chairwoman. "
She said student input is especially important in this
year's decision concerning the proposed student fee in
crease. "You hear a lot of comments, but they are hardly
ever said to those who make the decisions," Cole said.
FAB accepted her suggestion to set aside time at
consecutive meetings to hear major fee user's presen
tation, along with student organization recommendations.
Students can now be present to comment on the major
fee user's presentation.
The hearings scheduled are: Student Development
Recreation, March 10; Nebraska Union, March 17; and the
University Health Center, March 31.
Cole said the hearings would be a good way to gain
student response, while providing FAB with a basis for
better allocation recommendations.
The board expressed concern over the appointment of
a new vice chancellor of student affairs at this point in the
allocation process. Cole said the new vice chancellor
would need to know what FAB is before recommenda
tions could be made to him on the basis of the boards
past fee reviews.
Jack Guthrie, Center for Students and Organizations
program coordinator, said that since the new vice chan-
n t-
cellor would be unfamiliar with some funding areas, he
would need a reaction to the proposed fee increases from
both FAB and ASUN before he makes his final recom
mendation to the NU Board of Regents, which must
approve the recommendation.
