BY:
PRESIDENT REAGAN’S CUTS IN EDUCATION
Mark Jones & Steve Brown
WHEREAS it is the philosophy of this body that no deserving student should be denied access
to higher education by financial barriers if they are at all avoidable, and
WHEREAS the Fiscal Year ‘86 President’s budget contains massive cuts in student financial
assistance, including an absolute end to aid to students from families with over
$32,500 in annual income, severe reductions in the Guaranteed Student Loan,
National Direct Student Loan, and Pell Grant programs, and the elimination of the
Student Educational Opportunity Grant and State Student Incentive Grant
programs, and
WHEREAS should these cuts become law, many Kansas State University students stand to
lose all or part of their federal financial assistance, and
WHEREAS these reductions follow four years of large-scale aid cuts, and
WHEREAS the impact of these cuts on the ability of a student to afford higher education,
particularly at a medium-cost public university such as Kansas State University,
would be devastating
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
SECTION 1. The Kansas State University Student Senate implores our representatives in
Congress to reject these massive reductions in aid targeted at a particularly
vulnerable group, and instead opt for maintenance of these vital programs.
SECTION 2. The Chairman of the Student Senate be directed to send a copy of this resolution
to each member of the Kansas congressional delegation, President Ronald
Reagan, Secretary of Education and Secretary of the Treasury.

COLISEUM MARKETING & PRO FORMA STUDY
REQUEST
Tulin Artan, Susan Baird, Daniel Grubb, Ben Lange, Narita Peak, Justin Sanders,
Catherine Sayler, Christopher Steineger, Virgil Wiebe
WHEREAS the students of Kansas State University are pledged to contribute over $7 million
toward the construction of the Fred Bramlage Coliseum (Senate Bill 81/82/21),
and
WHEREAS a market study and a pro forma study are standard procedures in the planning of
any large construction project (see Collegian 2/14/85 inc. ref. for description of
studies), and
WHEREAS a market study and a pro forma study can insure that the monies donated will be
used in the most cost effective manner, and
WHEREAS a market study and a pro forma study were recommended by the original
architects (Ralph Anderson of Cram-Anderson of Houston, TX and Bill
Livingston of Gossen and Livingston, Assoc. of Wichita, KS), and
WHEREAS these proposals were rejected by the Negotiating Committee for the coliseum only
as cost-saving measures, and
WHEREAS several questions remain unanswered: 1) The annual utility costs are unknown, as
is whether revenue generated by the coliseum will be able to cover such expenses;
2) A paved parking lot will be necessary, due to the winter conditions of the
basketball season. The funds for paying have not been included in the proposed
coliseum budget, and it is uncertain where this funding will come from; 3) Of the
Big Eight universities, Kansas State has one of the lowest populations within a
70-mile radius. Many question whether this population can fill the proposed
coliseum for athletic events as well as concerts, lectures and other activities.
Moreover, since the hotel/motel accommodations in the Manhattan area amount
to 629 rooms, it is uncertain whether NCAA tournaments or any large activity can
be catered to by the community support services, and
WHEREAS a market study and pro forma study would answer these questions, and
WHEREAS these studies would require approximately 30 days, thus not seriously
jeopardizing the time table for the coliseum project
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
SECTION 1. Student Senate urge that a formal market study and pro forma study be completed
as soon as possible and no later than the third week of April.
SECTION 2. The administration is requested to notify Student Senate of whether they will
comply with this request by Wednesday, March 13, 1985.
SECTION 3. Student Senate shall review personnel selected for the studies.
R-3
SECTION 4. The Student Body President shall consider calling a special meeting of Student
Senate on Monday, March 18th, or Wednesday, March 20th, to review personnel
for the studies.
SECTION 5. Results of the studies, if made, will be made available to Student Senate as soon
as possible.

The 80¢ and 40¢ increase averages what they have received for the summer
months.

David Dakin moved to decrease Subsistence: Food from $25 to $0.

Marcia Muller moved to increase the Director’s Salary from $325/month to
$350/month (from $3,250 to $3,500 for 10 months), with the increase coming
from Reserves for Contingencies.
Kim explained the reason for requesting the increase. Because the salary is so
low, it is difficult to hire a truly competent director. Individuals in similar
positions in the Family Economics Dept. make $500-$600/month for a 16 hr.
week. The CRB Director puts in over 20 hrs./week. Also, the salaries under all the
Social Services are far below what they should be. In 1972 the CRB Director was
making $2,700. For 1984-85 she received $3,000, which is only a $300 increase
over a 12-year period. At the $325/month which Finance Committee is
recommending, the director would have to get a second job to make ends meet,
which means taking time away from CRB. At least the $50 increase looks a little
better and it is a step to increasing the salary to a competitive level.
Questions were asked and debate was entered into.
Jeff Vander Laan called the question. Failed.
Marcia Muller moved to increase Dues, Memberships & Subscriptions from $41
to $56, to cover a third subscription for Shelter Force, a tenants rights bulletin
from the #l landlord-tenant agency in the state which is located in Topeka.
Questions were asked, but there was no debate.
Ben Lange called the question. Passed: 27-17

Mark Galyardt stated that Finance Committee received 2 appeals to the Tentative
Allocations Bill. They were from the FONE and SGA.
The FONE requested $100 more, with $75 in Printing and $25 in Office Supplies. This
would increase their allocation from $10,493.85 to $10,593.85.
The Student Governing Association is requesting a $120 decrease. There would
be a $220 decrease in Jenny’s salary and a $100 increase in Dues, Memberships
and Subscriptions to cover $100 in dues to the Student Advisory Committee to the
Kansas Board of Regents. This would decrease their allocation from $31,888.50
to $31,768.50.
With these amendments, which are recommended by Finance Committee, the
Final Allocation Bill totals $795,947.23. We have $789,833.00 to allocate. This is
a difference of $6,114.23, which Finance Committee is recommending be taken

Dr. Miller went over the Coliseum Program Background Papers.
He emphasized the concept of a multi-purpose, high-quality coliseum to
accommodate intercollegiate basketball and other, non-athletic, programs and
performances.
All general use (as opposed to intercollegiate athletic) design objectives have
been retained.
Basketball coaching offices and sports press facilities have been retained.
Facilities for all other athletic administrative offices and VIP lounge will be
designed as add alternates to the base bid.
Multiple use of facilities (room that can serve both as basketball officials’ and
theatrical or program stars’ dressing rooms) remains incorporated.
The number of backed spectator seats has not been changed, while the number of
bench-type spectator seats has been reduced.
M-45
Retractable seating. areas have been reduced, thus reducing the square footage
available on the main floor.
The changes incorporated in the revised program document reduce the
programmed net square footage from 175,620 to 145,881. Programmed net square
footage excludes public restrooms, circulation, structural, mechanical equipment
and custodial spaces.
The design process currently in progress will verify whether or not a quality
design encompassing the proposed features can be achieved within the budget.
With the project architect’s successful resolution of these matters, the university
community will have ample opportunity to evaluate the responsiveness of the
design.
No decision to bid or complete the project will be considered prior to that
development.

1983 A comprehensive “program” document was completed.
1984 - The budget portion of the program was revised in March.

square footage, but with the same quality and use features as earlier planned
within the approved funding.

FIRST READINGS
Senate Bill 85/86/27, Student Bond Refinancing Ag hoc Committee Recommendations for Use
of the $700,000.
Each group made 5-minute presentations, and questions were asked after each
presentation.
$70,000 is being requested for Ag. Judging Teams. The money would come from the
Foundation account. Steve Ligon made the presentation and answered questions.
$150,000 is being requested to make Anderson Hall accessible to the handicapped by
putting in an elevator. The money would come from the Foundation account.
Gretchen Holden, Bruce cook & Jim Burns made the presentation and answered
question, as did numerous other students.
The elevator is proposed to be added to the exterior on the southwest side of Anderson
Hall.
The State will not make it accessible because it does not have classrooms.
It is estimated to take between $35,000 & $50,000 just to make the first floor accessible.
Another possibility was a ramp, but it has been deemed unfeasible because it would have
to be 79 feet long.
A third possibility was a chair lift, which was also deemed unfeasible because it would be
subject to vandalism and weathering. The doors of Anderson Hall would have to
be wided and changed. The estimated cost would be $50,000.
$86,182 is being requested for the KSU Child Care Cooperative to make their facility in
building “L” of Jardine Terrace a fully finished, permanent facility and would
allow them to repay two loans (from Housing & Continuing Education at 0%
interest rate). Errol Williams, a member of the Board of Directors, made the

On January 21st they got their tax exempt status.

food.
An infant care program. is badly needed, as is after school care.
Have 15 work-study employees.
80% of the CCC members are students.
$23,600 is being requested for KSDB-FM to purchase equipment for use with the
recently-donated tower gift and for a refurbished 1,000 watt transmitter. The
money would come from the Foundation account. Lee Buller, KSDB-FM adviser,
made the presentation and answered questions.
The $23,000 is broken down as follows: $7,105 for a studio-to-transmitter link
system, 600 for 2 STL antennas, $4,155 for a remote control system, $1,650 for a
receiver/monitor, and $10,000 for the refurbished 1,000 watt transmitter.
The 200-Foot tower gift from KAKE-TV in Wichita has 30 more years of use and is
valued at $24,300. The land the tower is on is valued at $15,000. The special line
connecting the transmitter at the base of the tower and the antenna at the top of
