ASUN defends homecoming court Senator says few minorities were royalty applicants By John Fulwlder Staff Reporter ASUN senators at their Wednes day meeting received clarification on homecoming selections after a com plaint had arisen that the court lacked minority and non-greek representa _ tion. benator mil Anderson of the College of Arts and Sciences said he didn't completely un derstand the substance of a recent com plaint. Senator Andy Vuko, who also is the chairwoman of the homecom ing royalty committee, responded to his question. Vuko said two students wrote a letter to the committee detailing what they felt was wrong with the process and asked that it be halted. Kwani Stewart and Ayanna Boykins, who both applied to be on the court, com plained to several organizations last week that the selection process was biased against minorities and non greek students. Vuko said that after reviewing the complaint, the committee voted unanimously to continue interview ing for the finalists. “It’s a great court this year, I’m very excited,” she said. After the meeting, Vuko said few applicants were minorities. “We had, of the applicants that actually turned in their applications, four minority students — four out of 51,” Vuko said. All four were women, Vuko said. In addition, she said, two men and seven or eight women were non greek. It also was announced that Mark Byars had been appointed interim homecoming electoral commission director because the current director, Stacy Lovelace, was a homecoming court candidate. In other business, Senator Tory Sigler of the engineering college dis cussed a memo entitled “Talking Points on the Engineering Issue” that had been given to all the senators. One of the 11 points questioned the need to spend millions of dollars on a new college; another said the col lege would be an unnecessary dupli cation. “Everyone needs to be aware of these points, so if the press comes and talks to you or students come and talk to you, you know information about it and you can give them information back,” he said. He said senators needed to be in formed because the issue of an engi neering college at the University of Nebraska at Omaha would continue to be important in coming months.
