Chairman's group is 'useless'
The Bookstore Advisory
Committee, an advisory group
which wss formed two years ago
to bear complaints from faculty
and students and to make
recommendations to tbe
bookstore board ot directors, is a
useless committee and does not
represent the itudentt, according to Its chairman.
Randy Ubby, chairman ot the
seven-member committee, a
majority ol whom are ttudenti,
ssid be bst suggested
eliminating tbe monthly
meetings became they accomplish nothing.
"It's totally self-serving to the
bookstore," he tald.
Bookstore profits are Llbby'l
biggest gripe. "Profits go over to
the board ot directors and they
spend money how they damn well
please," he said.
Ubby msde a proposal on Dec.
S, 197* that s recommendation be

Bassett said the proposed
budget tor tbe current year
would provide s 17 per cent
profit, or about 147,000.
"It would be foolish lor the
board to cut it (estimated profit >
much closer," Bassett said.
The bookstore baa fixed costs,
utilities, employee wsges, etc.
Projected profits are also based
on the student enrollment, s
hard-to-estimate figure, Bassett
tald. With such a small profit
margin (2.7 per cent) a
miscalculation ot the enrollment
figures could destroy the planned
profit, he tald.
Bassett reels ttudent benefits
