Cabinet Will
Investigate
SGA Budget
By KAREN HYNECKEAL
The Student Government
Assembly budget, which for
several years has been unani
mously and unquestioningly
approved, may be in for a re
vamping this time.
SGA Cabinet decided last night
to investigate the budget thor
oughly and consider redistribu
tion of the funds Until this inves
tigatiOn has been completed, the
budget will not be brought be
fore the assembly for approval.
The Student Government re
ceives its budget from fees paid
by eac hstudent every year. SGA
then decides how this money will
be spent. For example, certain
officers and committee members
on the assembly and other organ
izations receive compensations for
their work.
"But often there_ are students
who are doing important work on
campus who are not compensated
at all," Richard Haber, SGA pres
ident told the cabinet members.
"And vice versa, too," he added.
Haber said that he hoped that
If SGA made the initial move to
investigate its budget, other
campus organizations would do
the same.
He suggested that more money
be put toward activities and schol
arships which would benefit the
student body as a whole rather
than such a small percentage.
The cabinet cited as one exam
ple of what-might be a misuse of
funds the fact that while SGA
committee chairmen received
compensations, the presidents of
WSGA, Leonides and IFC do not.
Cabinet also said that often,
at the end of a school year,
there is no account of how
money was spent by the differ
ent organizations,
Originally, the budget was to
be brought before assembly for
approval tomorrow night but cab
inet decided to wait until the in
vestigation is made,
Campus Party Hits
Closed Membership
Limiting membership in a campus political party to either
Greeks or independents cannot best serve the interests of the
student body, according to a statement issued Last , night by
the Campus Party steering committee.
The Liberal Party, which became the third campus
political party Sunday, has heard
a suggestion that its membership
be liMited solely to independents.
Desmond Macßae, junior in
arts and letters from State Col
lege, made the proposal because
"out of the 41 Student Govern
ment Assembly seats, only one
is held by an independent." He
cited better organization among
Greeks as the responsible factor.
The Campus Party statement
continued saying: "We feel that
thus dividing the student body
would cause the issues of any
campaign to be clouded in pet
ty rivalries" between these
groups.
"Student elections would then
turn into nothing mare than con
tests between Greeks and Inde
pendents to get members of their
respective organizations to the
polls," the statement said.
Dennis' Eisman, Campus Party
vice chairman and drafter of the
statement, said he attended the
Liberals' first meeting. He said
