The Daily Collegian The Daily Collegian A concerned effort New committee takes a look at student services A concerted effort between CSUF ad¬ ministrators and the Associated Stu¬ dent (AS) Senate has resulted in the formation of a new and "valuable" com¬ mittee to advise Dean of Student Af¬ fairs William Corcoran on the funding of student services. With the support of CSUF President Norman A. Baxter, the Student Fee Advisory Committee has been set up by Corcoran and the Senate to increase student input in budget matters. The first meeting of the seven-member committee is pending the appointment of three students to serve on the advis¬ ing board by the Senate Personnel Committee. AS President Cordon Riddle called the committee's establishment 'a major step in how we as students can be involved in the decision-making process within and in regards to stu¬ dent services." Riddle said the committee will be a 'good communications tool* to help de¬ termine how funds collected in Student Service Fees each semester will be used to support such programs as car¬ eer placement services, student hous¬ ing and financial aids. The purpose of the committee will be to assess and evaluate current services fee-supported activities and make recommendations to Corcoran on pro¬ gram modifications. The committee will meet at least once a semester and will also function as a forum to discuss potential student services not offered. . Currently, students with seven or more units pay $74 toward student services; with those under seven units charged $59. Baxter called the new advising board *a very valuable kind of committee to have" and that the information shared between the students and the admini¬ stration could be helpful. Joining the.three student members on the committee will be the AS pres¬ ident, the dean of student affairs and the CSUF Business Affairs director A Survivor recounts details . faculty member appointed by the Aca¬ demic Senate will also serve as a voting member. The committee will join the Book¬ store and Food Services Advisory Com¬ mittees in advising campus govern¬ ment on their respective policies. Baxter said he hopes that the new gain play « valuable role from which Nation's capital buried under 23 inches of snow Completion date for library expected to be delayed Because of delays which are 'almost inherent in the industry," the comple¬ tion date for the construction of the new library is expected to be delayed until the summer of 1980, said Tim Johnson, CSUF building coordinator. A graph received by Marvin Wamp- ler, executive dean of CSUF, Thurs¬ day shows that 39 percent of the con¬ struction of the new library is com¬ pleted. Although the builder of the new li¬ brary, Robert C. Fisher Co. Inc., has submitted a March 26, 1980, comple¬ tion date for the project, Johnson said he did not believe it could make the deadline, even though construction is "going pretty well.* Johnson said if everything went smoothly, the constractors could be fin¬ ished by the date they specified. How¬ ever, material and weather problems ' have caused delays in the project. See Page 7 The nation's capital is dead. Buried under 23 inches of snow. I know. I'm one of the survivors. In New England, 23 inches of snow is nothing.
