  • WESTERN CAROLINIAN NEWS April 5, 2000 SGA CANDIDATES Continued front front He is currently looking into special parking zones for seniors who live in the residence halls, and working with the Resident Student Association on a plan for 24-hour visitation. He also hopes to assist campus organizations, and will encourage students to become involved. "I've already made contacts with people such as the director of food service, Dr. Caruso, and others in Student and Academic Affairs," said Cowan. "It is like dealing with the Senate and making sure things run smoothly. It takes a lot to get used to that." Robert Blankenship, a junior political science major from Greensboro, is also running for the vice-presidential position. He has spent three years semesters in the SGA Senate, serving as chair of several standing committees, and is also on the staff of the Public Policy Institute. He is the vice-president of the Model United Nations, and he asserts that the position has given him an extensive knowledge of parliamentary procedure, which is a skill needed for the SGA vice-president. One of the vice-president's duties is to run the meetings of the SGA Senate. Blankenship wishes to work closely with the SGA president and to better organize the Senate. "Under the current administration, the vice-president's job is to organize and make sure the jobs are getting done," said Blankenship. "I don't think that right now the jobs are getting done." "My parliamentary procedure experience will come into play in that role," Blankenship said. "The current vice-president is not familiar with parliamentary procedure." Making sure that the university administration hears the input of students is one of Blankenship's chief goals. "Communicating student ideas to the administration is one of my big ideas," said Blankenship. "Right now, student ideas are not being voiced in the administration. Pay for print is an issue the administration is pushing and students need to be aware of this and have a voice" Blankenship vowed to fight any move to make students pay extra fees to print material at university computer labs. "I would definitely fight against pay for print," he stated. "The students have enough to pay for as it is now." Blankenship also state that he is more qualified for the true nature of the vice-presidential position. "I am the most qualified for the role of vice-president here at WCU, and I will work harder than my opponent to meet the needs of the students. News Editor Jeffrey Sykes contributed to this story. SGA Constitution Faces Revision, Referendum by Dawn Pasley Asst. News Editor The SGA constitution, which has remained somewhat the same for decades, has been revised and will soon be put forth to the student body as a referendum. The Rules Committee of the SGA Senate, comprised of Senators Scott Jarvis and Zach Edwardson, teamed up with SGA President Jonathan Rowe to change some aspects of the constitution. "This is something that has been promised ever since the first day I was in student government, probably since before then," said Rowe. A copy of the revised constitution was given to each member of the Senate for their perusal, and each one was instructed to ask questions about it and look for errors or confusion. The Senate will vote to accept of reject the revisions at their meeting on Monday. For the changes to be approved, the motion must pass by a two-thirds majority. On Tuesday, the constitution will be submitted to the student body to vote whether or not to accept it. "There were three different versions going around, so we decided to go ahead and rewrite the whole thing, and cleaned it up," said Edwardson. "There were some big loopholes in the whole constitution." Some revisions that were made to the document included breaking it into fewer articles and more sections, as well as consolidating it to five pages in length. A section was also added that would allow for the student body to petition the Senate for legislation and amendments to the constitution. The general idea of the document, which is to provide rules for the student governance of the university, has not been changed. There was some conflict between the Rules Committee and Rowe at the beginning of the revision process, but that was soon cleared away. "It was very interesting, because we all had our different viewpoints where we were coming from, but we were still able to compromise and to bring this forth," said Rowe.
