Jan. 30 1981 Senate electioi By Lana Carter Staff Writer Student Senate passed a $2,790 appropriations bill Wednesday for 1981 Student k n A ~ 1 ii viuvui iiiut'iii elections. Budgeted expenses include poll workers' salaries, publicity, computer printouts, forms and supplies. Fifty-five poll workers will be hired at $2 an hour for 20 hours, for a total expense of $2,200. "We are using approximately the same figures as last year. Taking into account inflation, I would say it is less than last year's expenses," said Dorothy Stefan, Finance Committee chairman. STUDENTS may file to run for a Student Government position from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Feb. 3-9 in the Student Government office. The filing fee is $2 for senators and $12 for constitutional officers. The general election will be March 12 and the run-off will be March 17. Polls will be open from 9a.m. too p.m. The Finance Committee will meet Feb. 1315 to discuss the Student Government 1 budget. During the three days of meetings the committee will decide to either increase student activity fees or use a priority method of budgeting. "I'm against increasing the student activity fees," Stefan said. "1 on't think students should be paying any more money than they are now," she said. Budget hearings will begin after the committee sessions.

Loncar, speaking to a group of faculty, students and community leaders said, "In all J major tasks both peoples have stood together. American citizens and citizens of different ) Yugoslavian nations have a permanent bond in the liberation of both countries." Loncar, former ambassador to Indonesia and to the Federal Republic of Germany, also spoke of Yugoslavia's domestic policies. He said his country's economic development focuses on comprehensive development and raised standard of living.

Stefan suggested that USC students be on record as supporting full formula funding for state institutions of higher education. The state Budget and Control Board has accepted only 88 percent of the Commission on Higher Education's recommended budget for USC. In accordance with the cut, USC would have to reduce enrollment by 25 percent and faculty by 350. "Out of 350 faculty positions, 220 are women and blacks," Stefan said. "What we are really doing is a disservice to the minnriHoc " ehn eoif) Mimvt 1VIVO, OIlVz OCIIU, "The economic impact of USC on Columbia is $4 million. It's a large enough amount that the least the state can do is to help out," Stefan said. She said state government should concentrate on more lucrative budgets and not on higher education. THE SENATE also passed a bill by the Advisory Committee on Residence Life proposing several amendments concerning residence hall life. "The amendments were made because they were out of date, and they needed to be brought up to date in accordance with current policies," said Mike Doherty, committee chairman. Many of the rules were several years old and were not compatible with what really goes on at USC," Doherty said. All changes ha VP hpt>n annmvpd hv rpcirfpntinl 1if<? i i ; '. ' , . '...* ? "* .
