Famiglietti said the law school is his "true residency," because that is where he spends most of his time and he doesn't have the time or energy to get involved in dorm life. "Graduate students shouldn't have to represent undergraduates because it is a different lifestyle," he said.

Famiglietti said Student Government is only protecting its selfinterests and is not protecting students' interests. Filing for SG seats has been extended until noon Friday to ensure that everyone has filed correctly, Sheely said. The Senate decided to hold SG elections Tuesdav with mn-nffc March 23. In other Senate news, fund allotment for each candidate in the upcoming SG elections was increased from $20 to $30. The added $10 was necessary, according to Sheely, because of the extended time of the elections. "Each candidate is allowed $20, and they had already spent that previous to the original election. They needed the extra $10 because of the extension." of | f * I you like thoroughly 1 > of real mozzarella 1 izza ... our pizza is 1 FISS 256-0301 | rd I nrOUR DECISION I HSC5t~H?i 0 i !"
