University Dally Kansan, February 13, 1981
Fee applications due
Organizations requesting student activity fee money in the Student Senate's March budget hearings have until today to turn in their applications, Bren Abbott, student body vice president, said.
The original deadline was Wednesday, but only half of the groups expected to apply had turned in their applications, he said.
Forty-four groups, asking for a total of 86,828, turned in applications. Last year almost 100 groups presented requests to the Senate. Sixty-three of the groups were granted for a total of $48,018.
This year the Senate will be allocating $52,014.60. The hearings begin on March 2.
Abbott said that the hearings were scheduled a month earlier than last
year's because the Senate wanted the budget presented to the Board of Regents this spring.
Groups present their requests to the appropriate Senate committee first. Academic Affairs, Cultural Affairs, Sports and Student Services committees will be hearing requests.
The committees then make recommendations to the Senate.
Brant Tidwell, Senate administrative assistant, said any student group recognized by the Office of Student Organizations and Activities was eligible to apply for funding.
"We can't fund political action groups or religious groups." Tidwell and there's fund cultural groups, and there's a divide between cultural and religious groups.

The Faculty Senate yesterday approved by default amendments that define the rights and responsibilities of students placed on leave-without-pay status.
Amendments clarify faculty leave issue
The amendments will change portions of the Handbook for Faculty and Unclassified Staff, the Faculty Code of Conduct and the Senate Code. They will clarify procedures for faculty members to make arrangements with their school or department when they will not hold scheduled class meetings.
The changes also clarify procedures
"The changes remove some very vague and unreasonable language from the curriculum of Conduct," George W. Wood, Director of Committee chairman, said yesterday.
for the member's recourse when they are placed on leave without pay.
He said the existing guidelines did not clearly define faculty members' responsibilities in holding classes, and left a member subject to be placed on leave without pay if he failed to meet a class.
"There are times when there are very legitimate reasons that a faculty member cannot hold class," he said. "Faculty members do have other professional responsibilities that may not allow them to hold class."
One of the changes in the handbook makes provisions for a faculty member to cancel class meetings if proper arrangements have been made with the chairman of the department or dean of the school.
The amendment allows for the individual schools to determine arrangements that are "satisfactory."
If the faculty member is found to have violated the school's arrangements, then the faculty member is subject to being placed on leave without pay by the vice chancellor for academic affairs.
To be reinstated, the faculty member must notify the vice chancellor that he has resumed academic responsibilities
or made arrangements with the chairman or dean.
If the faculty member leaves the leave without-pay procedure was applied unfairly, he may request a hearing in the committee on Tenure and Related Problems.
The amendments were approved by default because there was no quorum present at the scheduled meeting. A special action could be taken by that body.
"I don't regard this as a sign of apathy on the part of the faculty," Worth said. "Most people probably felt that it was a reasonable change.
"This issue has been thoroughly discussed by other bodies. There really wasn't that much more to say."
