Senate may add minority seats
Three organizations would be represented

Kansas staff writer
Minority representation in Student Senate will increase if Senate passes a bill tonight to add three seats.
Senate will vote on a bill to add seats for Black Student Union, Native American Student Association and Hispanic American Leadership Organization at 6:30 p.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
Dion Jones, holdover senator and the bill's sponsor, said he wrote the bill to guarantee minority representation in Senate. Jones said representatives from all three organizations would attend the meeting.
Rochelle Votam, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator and HALO member, said she supported the bill because it would give more power to minority students.
"There aren't enough students of color on Senate." Votaw said. "It's real easy to be silenced in Senate, especially where the minority students are not in power."
Pat Mazumdar, graduate senator,
said that although he supported the
bill, he still had some questions.
"What is the criteria for giving student groups Senate seats?" Mazumdar asked. "Will the chess club get one next?"
Senate also will discuss three bills created by Student Rights committee to reform Senate committees.
The bills would create a mentorship program for new committee members, a parliamentary procedure workshop and a mock legislation debate.
The bills also would organize committee list-servs and give priority speaking rights to non-senators.
Kevin Yoder, Interfraternity Council senator and Student Rights committee chairman, said he supported the bills.
"Anything we can do to get more students involved in the process and better or lented will make Student Senate more effective." Yoder said.
Senate will debate another committee bill that passed two weeks ago.
Student Body President Scott Sullivan vetored a bill to change Senate committee chairman and vice-chairman elections from the beginning of fall semester to the end of spring semester. After Sullivan speaks about why he vetoed the bill, Senate will vote again on it. Senate must have a two-thirds majority to override the veto.
Senate also will vote on the proposal to use student fees to pay for Union renovations and a bill to change Senate Rules and Regulations to require a majority vote to change rules and regulations.
