OLD BUSINESS
Raydon Robel, Director of Rec Services, presented a program and requested input on the
Final Program of the Rec Complex.
The initial program was received by the Board of Regents on March 19th.
A week and a half later, it passed the Mouse of Representatives.
It was passed on April 15th by the Senate.
Then the Governor signed it.
We are ahead of the timetable that was originally set up.
After we start collecting fees, we can hire an architect.
The purpose, general characteristics of the building, proposed site and space requirements were presented.
-Multi-purpose building, Open area concept, requiring minimum supervision, will not be used for either varsity sports or academic classes of any type, want alternative energy sources looked into, utilization of roof for jogging track, multi-purpose courts & possibly 3-wall handball courts, daily use is expected between 1,200 -
1,800, still saying we want it in the Memorial Stadium area. Possible usage of the east and west stadium walls. Should be physically tied to Ahearn, space requirements, 4-wall handball and racquet ball courts (minimum of 16 courts) -
M-41
12,800 sq. ft., multipurpose areas, minimum of 6 basketball courts -25,200 sq. ft., minimum of 4 volleyball courts -7, 200 sq. ft., minimum of 4 badminton courts-

(central control point) (i.d. will be used), men’s and women’s locker and shower area - 6,300 sq. ft. ea. 12,600 sq ft. total, indoor jogging area, office area - 1,500 sq. ft., controlled entrance, both entering and existing, id will be checked, fire exits would be alarmed and properly marked, guest tickets would be sold here, would contain display cases and bulletin boards, possibly should be turnstiles for counting, Other ideas and considerations, lounge area and vending machines, general equipment and storage area, heating and air conditioning, custodial area and storage of machines, small portable bleachers, dividing nets, large digital time clock, small office area off checkout area, rental clothes, pre-school children rec area, adequate ventilation in locker and shower areas, other, ice rink, team handball, squash courts, tennis-hitting wall

35% Contingency = 29,197 (35,63l)
112,617 (137,435) = with safety perimeter
Comments: Must be compatible to the handicapped. Will include fencing. Location of jogging area (elevated or ground) is up to the architect. Looking down the road, see no great decline in handball & racquetball. Not too much equipment in
Ahearn will be transferred. Most is on a share basis with PE, etc. The ice rink would cost $500,000 on up. Guy Pruett has taken this on as a design project (the site of Memorial Stadium). Hope to continue using men’s gym for basketball.
Baseball machines were not considered too much. Would like to consider tennis machines. Faculty use fee will be identical to what the students will be paying.
Use fee of the family plan would be 2½ time the faculty/ student use fee. The number of semester you pay for the Rec. Complex while in school, you will have that number of semesters free use after graduation. Pools belong to the students.
Have to go through the State Architects Office. They interview 3 and select one.
Present offices now in east and west stadium will not be disturbed. Looking at the
L.P. Washburn area for Rugby & Soccer Fields. No additional parking areas are planned. Have considered keeping the complex open 24 hours with minimal supervision.

COMMITTEE REPORTS
TEACHER-COURSE EVALUATION - Jeff Crawford and Jan Saunders - TCE will not be out this semester. Ran into some trouble at the Computer Center. Jan stated that she felt that we had been put off by Educational Resources. We will pay the editor $20 and Educational Resources $50 for the time and effort. There will be one out next semester.
ACADEMIC AFFAIRS - Jim Hamilton -The committee is concentrating its efforts on advising. Jeanne Arnoldy talked to Ken Haywood of the Endowment Assoc. about setting up an Endowment Acct. for an advising award. It seems feasible but requires university sponsorship. Sharon Emig met with Dr. Hoyt to discuss means of advisor evaluation He thought there were equitable means of evaluating
M-44
advisors, and once criteria were set and the type of award was decided he would be glad to assist us in establishing advisor evaluation using these criteria. He also suggested that we might award the department with the most progressive advising system, as well as the instructor who would be chosen as the best advisor. Jeanne
Arnoldy & Jim Hamilton met with Dr. Chalmers to discuss university sponsorship of an advising award. He was receptive to the idea, but felt that insufficient criteria has been established. He also questions whether the award would have the desired, effect of improving advising. Again, peer advising was suggested. It looks like we’ll be back to the drawing board. We face a strange dilemma- the administration demands criteria before it will give its approval, and the people most capable of establishing criteria require university approval before they can act effectively.
Marty Minturn reported on the infamous University Policies Task Force (this is a third cousin to the Title IX Task Force). A letter has been typed up to be sponsored by the committee to be sent to dept. heads, deans, etc. to request that the college publicize, specify, and tell their academic advisors about any changes from strict university policy in areas of enrollment, drop-add, credit-no credit, or other academic policies. (How’s that for a Pat McFadden-type long philosopher’s sentence?) The committee concerning academic complaints and foreign T.A. language problem is still meeting with Dr. Nolting. Members are: Randy Groves,
Christian Loschcke and Jim Hamilton. And now for the moment you have all been waiting for. The daring, bold, and unselfish defenders of student rights in academics now close their sacred and honored committee’s report. We’ll see you next week with a brand new show!
STUDENT AFFAIRS - Cindy Thomas - Met Tuesday. College pictures should be up for next semester. Cathy McCosh is in charge of this. Final Week is also National
Handicapped Week. Hope to have the Non-Academic Grievance Board going by next semester. Kent Bearnes will be working on this. Hope to get the SGA Logo done before the end of the semester. Would like to look into a federal grant for construction for the handicapped on campus. Also, hope to look into a rape crisis center and personal property insurance. Will not meet next week, but will meet after the meeting tonight.
FINANCE COMM. - Gary Adams and Phil Palma - Met Tuesday night. Heard 3 budget shifts: 1 from the Students.’ Attorney and 2 from SGA They were approved.
Contact your chairpersons and sign-up to work on a project that is on the list that was given to them.
SENATE OPERATIONS - Ray Flickner & Guy Seller - Met Friday. Senate Bill 76/77/20 was discussed. We have to have a liaison report filled out and turned in by next week. It is our last report this semester. These will be included in the files. The
Opinion Poll results should be turned in to my basket by Monday so that we can combine the information and tabulate the results. Brenda Funk, John Buck and
Richard Suellentrop have worked hard on developing questions and obtaining volunteers for the Opinion Poll questionnaire. I would like to thank them for their hard work. Sandra Walters has gathered information on plants which would be suitable for the SGA Office. She is trying to acquire free plants through the Hort.
Dept. If you hare any ideas or suggestions for the reorganization of, the office, contact her.
LONG RANGE PLANNING COMM. - Jane Kittner - The major item on the May 3rd agenda was a presentation by Dick Hayter from the Environmental Research Lab.
M-45
He gave a summary of the KSU energy study submitted by the firm of Stone and
Webster. The study consists of two parts: a preliminary report which summarizes short- term needs and a final report which covers the period until the year 2000.
Preliminary Report Summary (to 1980):
1. The existing boiler plant will be sufficient until 1980 assuming all 7 boilers are in use.
2. Sufficient natural gas and oil will be available, with an emphasis on oil as natural gas availability decreases.
3. Listed modifications to improve efficiency and safety of existing boilers.
Final Report (to 2000):
1. Sufficient gas and oil will be available until 1986 (100% oil by then).
2. 1986 - build first coal-fired boiler.
3. 1990 - build second coal-fired boiler.
4. The university should continue to generate electricity.
5. Consider possibility of a federal grant to develop supplemental hydroelectric energy at
Tuttle Creek.
6. Available solid waste could also be burned in the coal boilers.
Notes on coal boiler plants: The firm suggested a possible location southwest of the corner of Kimball and N. Manhattan on university property. A building to house two boilers would be approx. 50’ x 65’ x 80’ high with a 200’ high stack. The coal would be stored in silos at the plant. At today’s costs, the first boiler would be about $12.2 million and the second boiler approx. $6.3 million.
HOUSING COUNCIL - De Miller - Met yesterday. Raised allocations for ARH and the individual dorms. Also raised dorm fees for 1977-78 to $1,200 for dorms and

COMMITTEE REPORTS
Intercollegiate Athletic Council - Ruth Barr, Kerry Patrick, John Lewis, Jeff Hall, Jeff
Crawford, Allison Luthi, Chris. Badger - Met May 7. Met Jersey Jermier, the new
Athletic Director. He promised new spirit of cooperation and openness. He also asked for permission to schedule women’s events for next year and to appoint an acting-track coach to replace Deloss Dodds who is taking a position with the Big
8 effective Aug. 1. Anticipated guarantees = $45,000 - Received only $37,649.
Will receive $30,000 in basketball guarantees but will have to pay out about
$60,000. The restricted fees money will be withdrawn from Endowment (Wilson and Dodds collected it for their programs) and the $45,000 will go to baseball & track. Sold about 2,000 K-Blocks. Had $2,000 in donations this month. Now spending the pre-season ticket sales money to meet current expenses. Men’s Dept. over-spent about $80,000 to $90,000. $14,300 cash balance. $13,000 bill due. As of March 22, budget indicates accounts payable now due $25,105. Women’s
Dept. has stayed within their budget. Have not received the $15,000 voted to them for scholarships. Have received the $15,000 voted to them for operating use, mainly travel of teams. 1975-76 income is as follows: State = $99,717,
Wildkittens = $5,966, Basketball = 5,326, Volleyball = $142, Track = $416,
Swimming gate = $27, Insurance = $924, Swimathon = $2,288, Athletic Council
= $l5,000. The insurance money was transferred from funds from endowment.
Also, they should get $15,000 additional for Athletic Scholarships. Jersey promises a new business manager soon. Rather than relating our accomplishes for the year, I am afraid all we can report is defeat. Our biggest goal was to reduce spending the Athletic Dept. and we failed miserably. They spent up to $99,933 over the budget in one year. (see SGA office files for breakdown) . State funds do not appear in the budget report. They were $103,035 for the Athletic Dept. last year. It also does not appear on the Univ. Annual Financial Report. A second goal was to up-grade the Women’s Athletics. We failed here also. The bulk of the money comes from the State. They receive $99,717 from the legislature. This figure does appear on the Budget Report. We did get $30,000 voted to the women and $15,000 has been put into their acct. according to the March 15, 1976 budget report. An argument against funding women has always been that they contribute very little. It is estimated that women’s athletics are assessed $45,000 per year.
This goes to football to pay for a stadium used 5 or 6 times a year; for football practice; and 1 graduation. They get a very small return on their money. Another goal for this year was to see that the athlete’s housing was brought up to standard.
Athletes who are single and are on scholarship are forced to stay there to retain their room and board scholarships. The dorm is not properly maintained because there is no money. There is only one janitor. In 1975-76, there was only one fulltime employee, excluding the contract kitchen help. The dorm was maintained by work-study students. Almost all beds are broken. The basement of B-wing has had the carpeting soaked with sewer water. Most furniture needs replacing. Two
M-50
roofs must be reroofed. The basement is soaked almost every time it rains.
Students must water-vac the water off the floor. It is deplorable that athletes are forced to live in the dorm in order to keep their scholarships. We failed in defining the role of the Intercollegiate Athletic Council. If we are an advisory board, we probably have done a poor job of advising, especially in the area of budget preparation. It appeared in the Kansas City Star that Head Coach Ellis
Rainsberger was picking up trash from the playing field (football). Perhaps we should have given better advice in preparing the budget and given him some stadium help rather than in some of the other areas such as special events, coaches meals, auto expenses, etc. However, we were told it was not our function to advise. Perhaps we thought our role was that of policy. We failed there too. We voiced a policy of better purchasing procedures to keep from going over budgets, we did not enforce them. We had a policy that would reprimand any dept. that went over the budget. We issued no reprimands. It wasn’t our function to issue reprimands. We failed at policies too. If we were a monitoring body, we failed there too. We would that there were large amts. expended that we weren’t aware of. There was an expenditure of $13,061 paid out to football grad. assts. that wasn’t in the budget and we were not advised until Feb. There was $12,000 for entertainment expenses paid out to coaches that was not budgeted and the council voted to pay. People were hired for unbudgeted positions. Weight equipment was bought for the stadium without approval ($900) even when the acct. was $3,689 overspent. Telephone and telegraph went over $26,714 in one dept. alone.
Possible goals for the coming year: 1) a student should not be allowed to give his proxy to anyone except another student; 2) a student who has a record of absenteeism should resign, if he doesn’t wish to resign, then some action should be taken by the Senate or the Student Body Pres.
