CFA recommends cut in student fees for unions
After five hours of testimony, the Com
mittee for Fees Allocation recommended
that students pay 38 cents less to support
the Nebraska Unions in 1982-83.
Students currently pay $12.68 in stu
dent fees for the unions each semester.
According to CFA recommendations made
Thursday night, students would pay
$1230 for the unions each semester.
The committee also voted to reinstate
the entire budget requested for the Campus
Activities and Programs office. It original
ly recommended large cuts in the CAP bud
get proposal. CAP's budget is included
within the unions' budget.
The committee still needs to decide how
much to spend for a management review of
CAP. An amount for that review should be
decided by Tuesday.
The unions originally asked for
$636,270 in student fees. CFA had recom
mended decreasing that amount by
$194,460. After the appeal Thursday
night, however, the union budget was at
$572,032.
Daryl Swanson, union director, appeal
ed CFA's proposals to:
- pay investment earnings to student
organization accounts.
-eliminate meal benefits to union
employees.
-reduce the union's reserve account.
-drastically reduce the CAP budget.
After the hearing, CFA decided not to
recommend that Student Activities and
Financial Services pay interest to students
organizations. However, the committee
decided to cut the union employee meal
benefits and decrease the union's reserve
account.
Union utilities
Swanson objected that CFA did not
recommend an additional $5 1 ,738 for the
reserve fund. He said this money, which
would be added to the present reserve fund
of $101300, is needed because university
officials have not decided if students or the
university should pay union utilities.
According to Richard Armstrong, vice
chancellor for student affairs, Gov. Charles
Thonc has said that no more than 50 per
cent of the utilities for the union can be
paid from state funds.
Asking for an appeal of the CAP budget
was Sara Boatman, director of the CAP
office. She said CAP contacts 277,245 stu
dents through its programs.'
Previously, CFA recommended to reduce
the CAP staff to six persons (it currently

third degree sexual assault, which involves

has 46 on its staff), eliminate CAP on East
Campus and funds for major concerts.
Those recommendations were cancelled,
however, in recommending the entire
original CAP budget. CAP voted to rein
state all of CAP-liast and to provide money
for, major concerts. The rest of the CAP
budget was voted on by the committee line
by line.
Jim Frohman, CFA chairman, asked the
committee where the waste in CAP was.
"I haven't seen any number showing
that CAP wastes," he said. Nobody can
support cuts when they cannot know the
effects that they will have, he said.
No demand increase
CFA member Greg Abboud said he
could not support the CAP budget because
"they've had a tremendous increase in ex
penditures but no increase in the demand
for their services or responsibilities."
Most of the problems on this university
arc because of similar increases in expendit
ures, Abboud said.
Hazel Fox, professor of nutrition and
food management and a faculty advisor to
CFA, said the CAP offices' growth is
parallel to the growth of the administrat
ion. "I will never believe that we need all of
this administration," she said.
Vice Chancellor Armstrong said he
detected a diversity of views on the com
mittee. When CFA questions the integrity
of the professionals who prepared the
union budget, however, it has gone too far,
he said. Voting line items exceeds CFA's
authority, he said.
"The committee is bent in the wrong
direction," Armstrong said.
CFA's final recommendation for the
recreation department budget will be made
Tuesday.
Regents to discuss Kwik Shop
in emergency meeting Monday
In an attempt to stop the proposed
building of a Kwik Shop on campus, the
NU Board of Regents will have an emer
gency meeting Monday to discuss pur
chasing the land in question.
Kwik Shop Co. has been issued a per
mit to construct a store between 13th
and 14th streets on R Street. The site is
located between Lambda Chi Alpha
fraternity and St. Mark's on the
Campus. Both organizations have
objected to the Kwik Shop project.
The regents are meeting to begin the
procedure to purchase the site, Richard
Wood, NU general counsel, said Sunday.
According to state law, the university
must announce 45 days in advance its
intent to purchase the land before evok
ing eminent domain, a process of
acquiring property for public use.
Wood said he hopes some type of
settlement can be reached before
eminent domain is enacted.
NU officials object to the construct
ion of the store because it interferes
with plans to turn R Street into a park
ing area and pedestrian mall, Wood said.
The extra traffic that the store would
generate would interfere with the pro
ject, he said.
