Treasurer quits; call by black group cited
By CINDY HOLM Staff Reporter
In the wake of the Black Student Union's call for the resignations of Student Senate officers, Mark Bossi, Senate treasurer, has decided to
Bossi said yesterday that he originally had planned to remain in office until his graduation at the end of the semester but that the BSU's call for resignations had changed his attitude.
"If people don't appreciate what I'm trying to do," he said, "and I don't even want to do it, why should I stay?"
On March 7, the Black Student Union called for the resignation of Bossi; secretary, David DeNoyelles, Senate secretary; David Friend, Student Executive Committee chairman; and Deborah McGinn-BSU said the officers "represent a small portion of the student population and abused their authority."
The BSU charged that some Senate officers had held secret meetings in October during the Student Senate elections.
Bossi, who served as administrative assistant last semester, was appointed treasurer by Scott Swen.
son when Swenson was elected student body president in November.
When Chancellor Gene A. Budig invalidated last semester's presidential election and asked the former president and vice president to return to office, Bossi was reappointed.
After the election this semester,
Carla Vogel, student body president,
asked Bossi to remain, and he
agreed.
Bossi said he had agreed to work in Vogel's administration because he thought his experience would be useful in the Senate and student organizations.
He said he had originally planned to train a new administrative assistant who could take office when he left, he said.
Terry Frederick, former administrative assistant to the treasurer, finishes his term today. Frederick said he had decided not to retain his position for academic reasons.
Dennis "Boo" Higgberger, student body vice president, said he and Vogel would accept applications for treasurer until March 30.
Bossi said he would stay on as long as the new treasurer and administrative assistant needed training.
Homosexuality charges dropped by Army panel
By United Press International
LEAVENWORTH — Two of nine enlisted women accused of homosexual activity at Fort Leavenworth will be allowed to stay in the Army, a spokesman said yesterday.
Janet Wray, civilian spokesman for the Army's military installation in northeast Kansas, said Col. Lane McCutter Friday decided to accept a recommendation against dismissal of the two women. The recommendation was made by a discharge board made up of four U.S. Army officers after a Feb. 23 meeting. McCoter is the commander of Fort Leavenworth's U.S. Disciplinary Barracks where the women worked, Wray said.
"There wasn't enough evidence to prove that these woman engaged in homosexual activity." Wray said.
Army officials at Fort Leavenworth last December began investigating allegations of homosexual activities among enlisted women at the military base and that the inquiry was sparked by a fight that started in the women's barracks.
Six enlisted woman have agreed to accept honorable discharges rather than appeal the Army's decision to dismiss them on evidence uncovered in the investigation, Wray said. Three other women, including the two exonerated, chose to appeal attempts at their dismissal.
The third woman who appealed her case is awaiting a decision from Army officials, Wray said.
A civilian woman accused of participating in homosexual activities also has been dismissed from her job at Fort Leavenworth, Army officials said.
