BILL 95/96/05 CHANGE OF EFFECTIVE DATE OF PREVIOUSLY PASSED BILL: DATE OF SGA ELECTIONS BY: Bill Muir SUMMARY: Bill 94/95/108 changed SGA elections from the second (2nd) full week of April

to the second week before Spring Break. It was passed by the 1994-1995 Student Senate on April 20, 1995, by a vote of 5 1-3. Because of an error in the effective date, Bill 94/95/108 is in violation .of the SGA Constitution and therefore constitutionally inoperable as written. This bill is necessary in order to correct that problem: The original 94/95/108 would have its effective date changed to the elections held in March of 1997. The reasons behind the original bill and this bill remain the same: Adequate time is needed before the end of the school year for the Student Body President, Student Senate Chair and others to make, and the Student Senate to approve, appointments to important positions; may of which function during the summer months. Student Body elections would be established in 1997 at two weeks before Spring Break, so that adequate time would remain for a smooth and efficient transition before the end of the year.

BE IT ENACTED THAT: SECTION 1. Section 2 of Bill 94/95/108 is hereby amended to read as follows: SECTION 2. This bill shall take effect at the beginning of be effective for all elections after the

1995 1996 legislative term 1996 general election.”

the Campus Privilege Fees. BE IT ENACTED THAT: Section I. REVENUE PROJECTIONS FOR CAMPUS PRIVILEGE FEES The revenue projection for Campus Privilege Budgets will be based upon the total

number of credit hours generated during the summer session, fall semester and spring semester of the year most immediately prior to the year for which the campus privilege budget is being established or reviewed (i.e. the base for campus privilege fee projections for the 1996-1997 academic year--FY 97--will be the total credit hours generated from main campus and Vet Med in the summer session 1995, fall semester 1995 and spring semester 1996.)

Section II. CAMPUS FEE BUDGETS Budgets will be established for each Campus Fee as follows: A. Budgets for the Board of Regent mandated fees and fees which support debt

Their budget request should include all sources of revenues, all expected expenditures, any balance forwarded and any assumptions the group used in developing their budget request (including assumptions on usage patterns).

3. The Privilege Fee Committee will consider each budget and make a

recommendation to Student Senate. 4. After all budgets are approved by Student Senate, Senate will work with the

Associate Vice President for Administration and Finance to discuss the statistical modeling of various ways of arriving at the projected needed income (i.e. adjustments in linear rate or flat rate).

5. In the Fall, all additional revenues which accrue because of additional credit

hour production beyond the base used for projection will be deposited in either the Campus Fee Adjustment Account or the Campus Fee Reserves Account subject to the provisions of Section III of this procedure.

Fee Areas not up for Review, may request an usage budget adjustment from the Privilege Fee Committee. The Privilege Fee Committee will make recommendations to Student Senate which could approve the budget adjustment with a 2/3 vote.

7. Requests for unforeseen budget adjustments (equipment failure, unexpected

increases in costs, etc...) can be made to the Privilege Fee Committee as needed throughout the academic year.

8. In the Spring, those Campus Privilege Budgets up for review can either

remain constant, decrease, increase, and/or be adjusted with a supplemental budget enhancement in lieu of a base budget increase.

9. The Privilege Fee Committee will work with the Privilege Fee groups to

BILL 95/96/100 AMENDMENT TO SGA BY-LAWS PROHIBITING PROXY VOTING IN STANDING COMMITTEES BY: LeDoux and Muir SUMMARY: The KSU SGA Constitution provide that proxies may be given by Student

Senators to other Student Senators for voting in Student Senate Meetings. The By-laws to the SGA Constitution are silent as to whether proxies are allowed in Standing Committees. As the SGA Constitution and By-Laws are “grants” of power, any purported use of proxies without authority in these two documents or the Standing Rules would be questionable. In order to prevent any misunderstanding, the following amendment to the By-Laws would fully clarify the matter.

BE IT ENACTED THAT: SECTION 1. Article V., SECTION 9.D. of the KSU SGA By-Laws is amended to read as

follows:

D. Unless otherwise provided by these By-Laws, membership of each standing committee shall be made up of Student Senators, Student Senate Interns and Students-at-Large, all of whom shall be voting members of their respective committee. Unless otherwise provided by these By-Laws, students-at-large on standing committees shall be appointed by the chairperson of the committee in consultation with the Chairperson of Student Senate. Proxy voting is prohibited in standing committees.

This proposed change would allow reconsideration of a previous action at which it took place or at any meeting of the Student Senate held during the eight-day time period (if the legislation were still in the possession of the legislative branch). The second proposed change involves the physical presence of persons appointed to positions subject to the approval of Student Senate. That requirement would be eliminated under this proposal.

BE IT RESOLVED THAT: SECTION 1. Article V. of the Student Senate Standing Rules be amended by adding a new

subsection to read as follows: F. A motion to reconsider final action on a bill or resolution requiring the

signature of the Student Body President is in order at any meeting of the Student Senate, if the bill or resolution is still in the possession of the legislative branch.

SECTION 2. Article IV., Section C. of the Student Senate Standing Rules be amended to read

as follows: C. Resolutions for the approval of appointments shall require one reading.

Person(s) receiving an appointment shall attend the meeting at which they arc to be appointed, if they fail to attend that meeting, their appointment shall be postponed until the next Student Senate meeting they attend.

whole rather than a part in order to challenge students to seek the connections across knowledge, to focus on the relationships among ideas.

broaden students’ education by exploring topics and issues beyond the limits of their chosen fields of study and,

WHEREAS Employers are looking for graduates with breadth of knowledge, analytical skills,

and the ability to work as part of a team and, WHEREAS A high percentage of American universities already have implemented a General

Education Program and, WHEREAS The General Education proposal stipulates that no additional hours will be needed

RESOLUTION 95/96/51 ADDITIONAL FUNDING OF FARRELL LIBRARY BY: Governmental Relations Committee WHEREAS Farrell Library was originally constructed in 1927. With the continued growth of

the university the library was expanded in 1955 and 1970, and, WHEREAS In recent years the library has become increasingly pressed for space to physically

accommodate information while still providing adequate seating and services to students, faculty and staff, and

WHEREAS His need was recognized by students, the Board of Regents, the Governor and the

Legislature in 1992 when the University was appropriated funds to construct a new major addition and renovation to the library, and

WHEREAS There have been several change orders and additional expenses involved in the

construction and enhancement of Farrell Library, and WHEREAS Although the base bid, with two add-alternates, exceed the original estimates

construction costs by $1,865,000, the negotiation committee and the architect recommended accepting the lower bid. This was accomplished by transferring funds from the construction contingency, site improvement, miscellaneous and equipment budgets to the construction budget, and

WHEREAS Using money from these other budgets will cause a significant loss in program

space, some site improvements and most of the furnishing budget, and WHEREAS Additional funds are required to restore these items to the project. The value

engineering process has helped refine the amount of funds necessary to complete the original program requirements, and

WHEREAS Kansas State University has requested $1.63 million to fund the completion of the

Farrell Library construction project, and WHEREAS The governor and his budget director has included this money in their

recommendations to be taken out of the educational building fund. BE IT RESOLVED THAT: SECTION 1. The Kansas State University Student Governing Association appreciates the

continued support of the Farrell Library construction project shown by Governor Bill Graves and his staff and we encourage the Legislature to retain this item within the 1997 budget.

RESOLUTION 95/96/52 SUPPORT ISSUING MULTIPLE YEAR BONDS FROM THE EDUCATIONAL BUILDING FUND BY: Governmental Relations Committee WHEREAS Several aging buildings at Regent institutions are in a deteriorating condition and, WHEREAS Many buildings at our institutions of higher education are not accessible or in

compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, and WHEREAS Major repair and construction for university buildings comes from a 1-mill level

Educational Building Fund, and WHEREAS Construction costs have risen by 268% at our state universities since 1970, which

averages an 11% inflation rate based on statistics kept by the Kansas Board of Regents office, and

WHEREAS Major construction projects have bid much higher than expected which has

caused equipment budget dollars to be shifted into construction budgets and in some cases not awarding the contract at all. Examples include addition and remodeling Farrell Library at Kansas State University, Hoch Auditorium replacement at the University of Kansas and Cancer Center at the University of Kansas Medical Center, and

WHEREAS Construction costs on campuses across the state are estimated to increase at least

6% for the next seven to eight years, with some major architectural offices using figures as high as 8-10% to be on the safe side, and

WHEREAS The interest rate for long term bonds is averaging at a relatively low rate of 5.1%

as opposed to 6-10% construction inflation, and WHEREAS The Educational Building Fund produces approximately $15 million a year which

over 15 years generates $225 million. But because of inflation $15 million now will only be worth $6.26 million in 15 years and the $225 million total will be reduced to $146 million, and
