N o v e m b e r 6, 1984 T H E E M P A T H P a g e 3 Cody Concert Plagued by Committee’s Internal Conflict by Mackay Rippey The turnout for the Commander Cody concert sponsored by the SGA was disappointing, according to Dave Merrier, Director of Student Programs. The concert was attended by about 150 people, less than a third of those students. Uerrier said, "It was definitely apparent that there were leadership and organization problems in planning and execution." According to SGA president Gene McCandless there were "problems with leadership within the committee. [There was a] conflict with who was in control." Newly appointed committee chair Debbie Peoples said she, "became chairman two weeks before the concert," and that she didn’t know anything about the selection of the band. According to McCandless, The Commander Cody concert (photo by Dave Riegel) Commander Cody was chosen by a select minority of the concert committee. Kim Levy, the previous chair, was directly involved in the choice, but resigned her post due to academic problems. Peoples said that it was bad timing to switch chairman so close to the concert. She also said that there was a problem with publicity. A total of $154.95 was spent on advertising. One hundred and thirty three Women’s Group to Form Here by Robin Lerner If you are concerned about such issues as women in careers, what the "real world" has to offer these women and where the problems and rewards lie, perhaps you would be interested in forning a women’s group here on the SMC campus. Another interest of the group would be women competing on athletic teams (the women's soccer team holds the status of a club and the women on the sailing team currently have to compete against men). Kelly Jenkins, a senior at SMC, is currently on an internship in Baltimore as a technical writer for the Maryland Commission for Women. She has a genuine concern for women's rights on campus. "I'd like to see something of this nature get started here. I won't be coming back to St. Mary's before I graduate in December, but I do-want to try to help three or four people who would take the initiative in starting a woman's group," she stated. The idea is now in the primary stages, and getting input from students is what is needed more than anything. There will be a meeting on Sunday, November 11 at 7:00 p.m. in the bottom of Charles Hall, for anyone who is interested . Student Poll CoRnetainsouneds :for Reagan (Continued from page 1.) and his foreign policy. It was interesting to see that 16 percent of the students that used the President's name in their answers were unable to spell his name correctly. One student even had a hard time with Mondale's name: "I am a business major and understand what he is doing to our economy. Mondal is an idiot, the deficit means noting. It's even good to have one." One student voted for Reagan out of "fear of the Soviets." There were a number of students that felt the President needs four more years to be truly effective and implement policy: "He needs eight years to carry out his plans" and "He's started some good programs and needs more time." The next most popular reason for students to vote for Reagan was the antiwoman/ Ferraro Syndrome: "I hate Ferraro!" "Ferraro's a witch." "I don't identify with Ferraro, a woman and Mondale, a wimp." Finally are the truly unique reasons for choosing Reagan: "He's goodlooking," "He's a better actor than Mondale is, and that's what's necessary,"and "He's like where 'it's' at now." In the Mondale camp were similar responses. The top three replies were based on dissatisfaction with Reagan's national security/ defense policies, care of the poor, and deficit control: "People say we're stronger today, more respected, yet today there is more of a threat to national security than since Vietnam .1 don't want to go to war." "Reagan represents a threat to our economy in general, the poor in specific." "Mondale holds a realistic view of how to deal with the nation's deficit." Many students chose Mondale/Ferraro based on their party loyalty and others for the Vice Presidential candidate: "It's my party's candidate" and "I like Gerry." Some students are afraid of the possibility of a conservative Supreme Court, while others voted against Reagan's "ignorant belligerence." The Mondale supporters also had some unique reasons: "Ronnie is Death" and "There's more to Mondale than meets the camera." One student quoted a Time magazine letter about the debates: "Better to remain silent and thought a fool than speak and leave no doubt." To summarize, the major reasons for each candidate's support: Reagan, good foreign policy, economic policy, and defense; for Mondale, national security problems, social program problems, and the Federal deficit. Happy voting! dollars was spent on radio spots on WMDM. The remaining $21.95 was spent on posters for publicity on campus and in the surrounding community. According to vice president of the SGA, Greg Angst, and Peoples, the concert committee is undergoing reorganization under the guidance of the programs board. "We have a limited budget. We have to work with what we have," said Peoples. NOeuwt liFniensa nPcreio Briotiaersd by Betsy Dallam The SGA estimated budget this year is $78,750 according to SGA treasurer, Melanie Bell. This money constitutes the total sum of the student activities fee required of each full time student. The Financial Board, a standing committee of the SGA, is responsible for allocating the money among the various organizations and clubs according to need The board consists of five on-campus and three off-campus students and an SGA senator. Bell says she is, excited about this year's Financial Board, and that a great deal of fresh ideas are being contributed. In the spring semester each year a Financial Board meeting is held in which a representative from each club and organization must submit a fund appeal. The SGA settles on a tenative figure. If the club is not satisfied with the allocation it may appeal for more money in the fall semester. Financial priority is based on several considerations: the number of people involved and served by the group's activities, how much money the group actually needs to get a project underway, and the group's past record of its use of allocated funds. The more successful the club or organization is in beneficially using its funds, the more likely it is to successfully acquire increased funds for the following year.
