to raise the presidential salaries for this year's term.
"We thought it looked bad to raise our own salaries," Schnacke said. "What would necule say?"
AT THE UNIVERSITY of Colorado in Boulder, there are no complaints about student government salaries. There are no salaries.
In Colorado's student government elections in February, the question of whether student officers should be salaried was put on ballot. Students voted against such measures.
One of CU's two student body presidents, But Zuickenck, said students were told by the president to not ask for the ballet that students would get $10 to $15 back if they voted against government student funding.
"That was bulshit," Zackerman said. "It was total vindictiveness. We have a staff of 15 people who are all paid. The only salaries we get are for people in charge — if that makes any sense."
ZUCKERMAN SID student government would suffer this summer because he and the other president, Randy Herberts, have to have to jobs. He said he and Herberts spent about 30 hours a week on the job and else, also unpaid, worked from 20 to 30 hours.
Zuckerman said he didn't think that the quality of leadership was affected by the funding cuts, but that there was an inertice to take any extra responsibilities.
He said he had decided to skip a number of meetings because he had other work and felt no real commitment.
"Why are you going to stick your neck out?" Zuckerman said.
Although the University of Colorado's student government officers say they are not part of the university's leadership, the University of Iowa, Iowa City, the student government's two presidents are paid by the university.
THERE ARE two student government organizations at the University of Iowa. The Student Senate represents students by living group, and the Student Senate, which represents students
"We do consider it a job, and the reason pay salaries is that we want to attract people from other industries vice president, said. "There are not many people who could put in the hours we do and give us more."
"We have little time for anything else."
We have little time for anything else.
The Iowa Senate president and vice
president work approximately 40 hours and
30 hours a week and earn $48 and $29.
The CAC president's hours were estimated at 10 to 55 hours a week and his annual salary was $3,800. The CAC vice president's hours was 30 to 30 hours a week make half that amount.
ALTHOUGH STUDENT presidential and vice presidential salaries are less than half that amount at the University of Missouri, Dave Skinner said. Dave Skinner said mortal was very high. He
said that he successfully defeated a motion to raise his salary.
"I didn't want to set a precedent. It would have "雪白baled," Skinner said. "Those salary awards would take a huge chunk out of our budget."
Skinner estimated he spent six hours a day in the office.
He said he was paid $166 a month and the vice president was paid $144 a month.
"The salary isn't the issue. It is just something there that I don't have anything to do with."
"You kill yourself socially and academically," Skinner said. The pay is pennies are compared to the time you put in, but I don't really care about getting paid.
Student government salaries are a controversial issue at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, according to Mark Hirscheidt, vice president.
"It is kind of like a stipend; it is not really to supplement a part-time job," Hirschfeld said.
HE SAID the student government recently passed a bill lowering the student body vice president's salary from $140 to $110 a month.
Those same sentiments were echoed at the student government offices at the university. The president Richard Wintory said five percent of the total student budget was used for student projects.
Wintory, who left office April 16, said salaries were necessary in order to hold student officers accountable for their actions.
Oklahoma's student president makes $224 a month, and OU's equivalent of a vice president, the chairman of the Student Congress, makes $210.
"The salary is not the incentive," Saunders said. "But there does need to be some kind of stipend."
NEAR THE bottom of the salary scale, second only to Colorado, was the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's student government.
Bou Saidnures, student body president, said he earned $110 a month and worked for the company. But there was no vice president, but the Speaker of the House, whose job ressembled that of a student.
Saunders said he held a job that brought in $3,000 last year. Working for student government, he said, he makes only $1,230 for 12 months.
"In good old economic terms, the opportunity (to serve as president) cost me about $1,700." Saunders said.
Matt Davis, KU student body vice president, said the philosophy behind KU Senate salaries was to determine the point at which students should have his position and survive financially.
"There is no way I could work 30 hours a week for nothing," Davis said. "People in Senate earn the money they're paid."
DAVIS SAID he already held an outside job.
The lower staff positions of the KU Senate receive higher salaries than the presidential and vice presidential salaries.
The administrative assistant, who works about 28 to 30 hours a week, earns $30 a month, and the treasurer, who said he worked 40 hours a week, earns $250.
"It's just a job," Schnacke said, referring to the two positions. "There is no prestige, you don't get acknowledged.

"We are now moving in the direction of pricing ourselves out of qualified people," she said. "We are trying to increase the salary. You know you aren't going to be paid for everything, just enough money."
