Will SG to in By Rachel K. Koenig Gamecock Staff Writer A resolution to investigate Russell House University Union was passed to make the union a more "viable, effective body," said Michael Warshauer, Student Government vice president. TV OllrtUUl OcllU, ICldllllg IU lilt; Contemporary Sounds Committee of the RHUU, "Contemporary Sounds was severely cut in their budget request. Perhaps if they had been a more viable group they would have gotten their entire funding request." According to Warshauer, there are no real problems now, but he feels as though there could be some improvements "to help make the Union work better." He added, "I think it needs a more campuswide input." Sen. Matt Ward said, "An ad hoc committee is looking into how the RHUU can better serve the ctiirlnr>fo '' LI? aiuuvuio. iic aaiu many nines in the past SG has given RHUU the "brush off" and now those conflicts between the two organizations need to be resolved. s WARD SAID one of the problems SG wants to investigate is, "the Union operating within a closed membership. It doesn't bring in a lot of outside people into the programming aspects." But Ward disagrees with the investigation. "If any student wants to be involved with the Ilninn ~11 ?U 1 J- ? uiiiuii, d11 nicy nave tu uu is go there and say so. I have never heard a case of a student being turned away who wants to be involved." Ward said he would like to see more done on improving relations between SG and the Union.

"THE RESOLUTION is just the j 'tip of the iceberg' and it doesn't 1 really say anything," Ward said. "I would like to see SG sit down with the Union and get some kind of input from them." Ward also said, "Organizations are going to be afraid of SG because of the recent cuts they've had to deal with." Ward doesn't think SG should have a special committee without a representative of the organization being a part of the committee for more input. Sen. Jill Mitcheltree said, "The resolution as it is now is too fuzzy and I would like to know more ft"- ? I r tr "zr M THE RUSSELL HOI Our 1 | 91 | In the Gampus Bo H other theatrics.

PRESIDENT of RHUU, Ronnie Jowers, is in favor of the resolution to "study" the Union and to look for ways to improve the Union and its structure. Jowers said he hopes that the investigating committee will help SG and the Union understand and know each other better by working together. "It will give SG a better insight to how hard we do work," Jowers said. I t?l Jt] j 1 ^ "' tf* - - 'if-?
