1992-93 Student Union & Activities

Report Summary

Rep_ort Summary_

Description of Student Union & Activities

The Student Union serves as a center and forum for the academic community- students, faculty, staff, alumni, and guests. As a facility, it provides services, conveniences, and amenities needed to enhance the daily life and events of the university. It encourages students and other members of the university community to meet and share talents, interests, and ideas through its Board of Governors, student government, student clubs and organizations and through the provision of formal & informal cultural, social, educational, and recreational programs.

Mission Statement

(1) To be an integral and vital part of the educational life of the university, sharing goals of academic and personal development.

(2) To serve as an organization and a program, designed to encourage students and other members of the university community to meet and share talents, interests, and ideas in an action-learning setting.

(3) To support the principles of social responsibility/participatory self-governance in boards, committees, and staff, and through the provision of cultural, social, and recreational programs.

(4) To provide opportunities for the ripening of intellectual, creative, and communicative capacities in life beyond the classroom.

(5) Through management of physical and human resources, to encourage interaction of people with diverse citizens.

(6) To create an atmosphere that encourages individual self-development as concerned, responsible, humane citizens.

(7) To develop and manage an aesthetic environment to reflect sensitivity to design, accessibility, comfort, safety, color, and art.

(8) To manage the image of Student Union & Activities.

Student Union Board of Governors

The purpose of the Student Union Board of Governors is to recommend or advise staff in the establishment of policies and services in the operation of the Union. Activity by the Board of Governors continued this year with committed and active participation by its members. Highlights of the Board's action included:

• Studying After Hours at Table Rock Cafe- The Board approved and worked with Marriott and the Campus Space Planner to open up the Residence Dining area for studying after the serving hours until the building was closed. This was particularly valuable with parts of the Library being closed due to renovation. The first time this study area was implemented was in the spring of 1993 during Finals Week.

• Check Cashing Policy- The Board initiated discussion on the lack of a check cashing unit for students on campus which resulted in the BSU Bookstore revising their policy to include cashing of BSU student payroll checks and an increase in the amount of personal check that could be cashed.

Rep_ort Summary_

• Recycling Committee- A committee of Board members was appointed to develop an action plan and timeline to expand from paper to aluminum, glass, and cardboard for implementation in the fall of 1993.

• Space Allocation of the Student Organization Complex- The Board made recommendations to the Director for assigned offices, office system works paces, closets, and lockers to over twenty-two student organizations.

• Student Union II Allocation Recommendations- After review of year-end reports submitted by the YWCA Women's Center, Multi-Ethnic Center, and~. the Board approved the Director's recommendation that these groups be assigned space for the 1993-94 school year. Tutorial Services, who was assigned space last year, developed space elsewhere on campus.

• Vandalism in the Union- Vandalism and complaints about behavior and facility use by junior high age individuals were debated by the Board. Routine staffing oflaw enforcement officers became commonplace during spring semester weekends. "Two Band for Two Bucks", the SPB dances targeted to junior high age youth, combined with the general popularity. of the building with hundreds of teens, resulted in a proposal by the Director. The policy's intent to restrict access to a minimum age was considered, hotly debated, and narrowly approved. The proposed policy was not yet implemented in the 92-93 year. However, the Director sent a letter to junior high school principals to first communicate the problem to them. Disruption and vandalism decreased with the summer weather.

• Room Rental- Rate increases were proposed and approved in the category of outside organizations.

• Audio-Visual Charges- Rate increases were proposed and approved in all categories for the first time since the fall of 1990. Increases will be used to maintain and replace audio-visual equipment.

• Recreation Center rates- Rate increases were proposed and approved for guest prices for billiards and bowling. Implementation ofa3-tier structure for students, faculty/staff, and guests was recommended by the Board.

• Outdoor Rental Center- Rate increases were proposed and approved for rafting and camping gear.

Since its first semester in the Fall of 1991, Brava! increased 67% in average attendance with the largest attendance topping 300 at a performance by the a cappella group, "The Trenchcoats. An added event this year was "Open Mic" night, which provided local artists the opportunity to showcase their talent. The series features music, com­edy, and theatre to appeal to a broad audience.

Art Exhibit Program

Photography, watercolor, and painted doors were some of the media exhibited during 1992-1993 in the Student Union Art Gallery. A special exhibit produced by English professor Tom T rusky displayed eighty-one underground newsletters. Some controversy associated with this exhibit centered on display­ing controversial topics associated with several zines. The Student Union &Activities staff responded by producing informational signage, an exhibit brochure for viewers, and scheduling a brown-bag session with Dr. William Wines, Professor of Business Ethics/Management, to discuss the topic of free speech. Live entertainment was offered at several receptions this year with classical guitarists Cary White and John Liebenthal performing at alternating receptions. Attendance averaged seventy-five people at each exhibit opening. The "Unexploded Artists" reception was the most popular with over 175 people present. Additional highlights included sponsoring a photograph show for the Boise Arts Commission- Boise City Arts Celebration '92 and two exhibits for the Martin Luther King, J r./Human Rights Celebration Week.

The Art Advisory Board met three times during the academic year to review and select exhibits for the Student Union Art Gallery and made several recommendations on purchases toward the Permanent Collection. A report on the Board's progress and functions was made by Chairperson Rob Meyer to the Student Union Board of Governors at their April meeting.

To enhance the exhibit space available in the art gallery, research was conducted and specifications were written for the purchase of twenty art panels/walls and nine sculpture blocks. Two free-standing storage cases, where the panels and blocks would be kept when not in use, were also part of this project. As of May 1993, eight businesses have been contacted as possible vendors by the Idaho State Division of Purchasing. Installation of the panel system is projected to be in 1993-1994. When completed, the panels will triple the amount of hanging space available in the art gallery.

Greek Life

Generally the fraternities and sorormes at BSU are continuing to experience growth in their membership. Nearly all the chapters will be returning with more members in the fall than in the past five years! Other notable accomplishments include: increased visibility at Homecoming, the formation of a new Greek Council and the recognition of another fraternity, Delta Lambda Phi. Boise State is now home to four fraternities and three sororities. During spring semester, representatives from all of the fraternities and sororities met approximately six times to develop a constitution for the Greek Council and to plan a Greek Week. While the BSU Greeks still do not attend the regional and national Greek conferences offered, they attend and participate in their respective fraternity/sorority conferences if possible.

Fraternities

Fraternities have increased the level of visibility they have on campus through active participation in ASBSU, Homecoming, New Student Orientation, Into the Streets, and Leadership Quest. At the end of the year, membership in the groups was as follows:

Beta Sigma Phi 45 Delta Lambda Phi 5

Kappa Sigma 27 Sigma Gamma Chi 12+

Sororities

Sororities have increased their level of activity during the 1992/93 school year. Iota Phi organized and coordinated one of the sites for the newly created "Into the Streets" service program this year. Their project involved nearly fifty BSU volunteers for about three hours. This year, the Panhellenic Council was finally derecognized as a student organization. The sororities have been conducting their own independent rush programs. Alpha Chi Omega has continued to conduct an organized and visible fall rush program during New Student Orientation. They also have visible informal rush promotion throughout spring semester which seems to have had a positive impact on their membership numbers. Alpha Chi Omega also acquired a new Chapter Advisor who has been very involved with the chapter and who has effectively sought out BSU resources for training. At the end of the year, membership in the groups was as follows:

Alpha Chi Omega 21 Iota Phi chapter 20

Iota Chi Beta chapter 12

Student Organization Services

Steady improvement continues in the services provided to student organizations. Due to the success of the organization breakfasts, additional breakfast meetings were scheduled which provided nearly every organization on campus the opportunity to participate in this informal dialog. Suggestions from the

12

Student Activities

organization breakfasts as well as from the advisor workshops have been incorporated into services provided. The Getting Organized Manual for student groups was completely reorganized to emphasize the services available to clubs and make it easier to find quick answers to questions. Twenty-two organizations were assigned office space in the Student Union Organization Complex and Student Union II. The most visible change occurred with theASBSU Hall ofFame & Student Organization Recognition Dinner. Special attention was given to increasing club attendance and involving more members from the clubs. Attendance more than doubled which provided more recognition to award recipients. These and the many other services provided to student organizations are addressed in more detail in the sections which follow.

Extended Office Hours

The extended hours program has shown progress since its initiation in 1991. The purpose of the extended hours is to provide access to the office and staff for those students who work until5:00 pm. On Mondays and Tuesdays, the Student Activities Office remained opened until 7:00pm. In addition, the extended hours also provided a productive work time for the staff because there were fewer interruptions. The extended office hours have been especially helpful when there were events in the Student Union. For the academic year 1992-93, 381 people were helped during the extended hours, an increase of eight percent over last year's 352 people. Extended hours have been offered only when school is in session for fall and spring semesters.

• Mondays tend to be more successful than Tuesdays and there were almost double the number of walk-ups during fall semester. This could be attributed to the fact that there are so many more new students in the fall.

• More advertising would be helpful, as well. Many students, staff and faculty members do not realize the Student Activities Office has extended hours.

• There is currently no system for checking the use of the poster room. Keeping a log of the poster room use could also be beneficial as some clubs come just to make posters.

Student Activities

Organization Workshops

The third year of the program again provided an opportunity for student organization presidents, advisors, ASBSU officers and members of the Student Union & Activities staff to informally meet and discuss/question policies, concerns, and praises. Meetings are typically held on a Tuesday or Thursday at 7:30am in the Lookout Room. Seven breakfast meetings were offered during this year, an increase of three meetings from 1991-1992. Some of the questions/ suggestions that came about from these meetings were: Judiciary's constitution update policy and timeline, monthly financial statements from ASBSU Treasurer, explaining the new community service provision for ASBSU funding, and troubles opening the new organization combination mail boxes.

Two student organization advisor luncheon workshops were held as well, with more than seventy advisors in attendance. Topics included: the community service requirement for funding, Who's Who & Leadership Quest nomination requests, liability issues regarding events with alcohol, a request for an advisors' list for networking. In addition, announcements were made about upcoming events and the application process for offices pace. Advisors suggested that the outcome of ASBSU legislation that affects dubs be printed in "Activities InSight."

Direct Mail Promotion Brochures

In a continuing effort to implement programs and services that were indicated as needs in the 1991 Student Activities Assessment, a direct mail promotion brochure was created this year. The brochure, a listing of activities and services, coupons and contact phone numbers provided by ASBSU, Student Programs Board, and Student Union & Activities, was mailed to all enrolled students. The budget is split between the three organizations with Student Union & Activities providing administrative support (ASBSU 25%, SPB 25%, Student Union &Activities SO%). The summer semester mailing replaced the Noon Tunes brochure and also included SPB' s OverExposure 5 schedule. The theme for the 1992-1993 mailer is "Secrets of the Univers-ity Revealed." A committee met twice to produce and evaluate the brochure.

Activities InSight Newsletter

In the fourth year of publication, Activities lnSightcontinues to inform student organization presidents and advisors. Content usually focuses on updates on policies, procedures, and a calendar of events highlighting deadlines and entertainment programs on campus. For the last three issues of this year, information on achievements and upcoming events was solicited from each organization. The response to this was so great that the calendar of events was eliminated in favor of stories about the organizations themselves. As organizations become more aware of Activities InSight, they are beginning to seek it out to promote their events. Also, more student organizations are asking to have their many honors and awards published for others to read. When organizations hear how much their peers are doing, it motivates them to achieve more which strengthens the student organization system as a whole.

Each organization received three copies of the newsletter, for the president, advisor, and club members. Copies were also sent to the Vice-President for Student Mfairs and Student Union staf£ Ten tablets, each containing ten copies of Activities InSight, were placed on bulletin boards throughout campus.

Issue Dates Issue 1: September, 1992 • Issue 2: November 20, 1992 • Issue 3: February 1, 1993 1992 Issue4: March 8, 1993 • Issue 5: May 10, 1993

Considerations • Use of the newsletter to publicize club events and honors should be strongly encouraged. • As this interest in Activities InSight grows, it may become necessary to add a page to the newsletter

or to publish issues more frequently.

Student Activities

Student Organization Directory

The purpose of the Student Organization Directory is to stimulate interest in and to promote student organizations to BSU students. The directory provides a listing of all active and temporary organizations (those that have turned in their constitutions) along with purpose statements for each. A return-addressed stamped interest card is included in the directory which allows the student to indicate the organizations they are interested in. Once the card is received, the student's information is entered on a database, printed in report form, and distributed to the student organizations.

In August 1992, the Student Activities Office sent out 4,489 directories to incoming students, 679 to the Residence Halls, 500 directories to the Academic Advising Center, seventy-five to the College of Technology Student Services Center, fifty to Admissions to distribute to the incoming foreign students, and fifty-four to Athletics to distribute among the new athletes. Directories have also been placed on the brochure racks by the Student Activities Office, the Information Desk, and the Student Special Services as on-campus distribution sites.

Considerations • Continue to produce the directory at its existing quality level or better. The quality of the paper

and art work make it a very effective promotional tool. • Develop an Introductory Card for the directory which is not labor intensive to insert or print. • Mail the directory to new students by July 15 of each year.

Getting Organized Meetings

The purpose of the Getting Organized meetings is to convey information on upcoming events, services, policies, procedures, and rights and responsibilities of student organizations. New policies and services are also included. Scheduled on the third and fourth weeks of September, the mandatory Getting Organized Meetings are intended to capture student leaders' attention in organization and leadership before study pressure sets in. There were two sessions each day for four days starting on Thursday. Different time slots were selected for each day to ensure the least amount of conflict with classes and, therefore, maximize attendance. One evening session was held at 5:00pm.

There were 16 5 representatives from 1 05 student organizations who attended the meetings. Out of the thirty-three organizations that missed the meetings, one organization had temporary status and was not required to attend, twenty-two organizations listened to an audio tape recording of the meeting and collected handouts, and six organizations did not comply. It is worth noting that every effort (letters, phone calls, newspaper ads, and other promotion) was made to remind student leaders about the meetings. Organizations that were derecognized due to non-compliance were: Bilingual Education Student Organization, Student Coalition for Peace in Latin America, Water-Ski Club, Dolphins Swim Club, Panhellenic Council, and Sexual Awareness for Everyone. Organizations that requested to be derecognized were: Campus Greens, University Christian Fellowship, and Spirit Squad.

Introductory Letter Program

The Introductory Letter Program complements a recruitment effort sponsored by the New Student Information Center and is part of the organization promotion sent to BSU students by the Student Activities staff. Each year notices go out to the student organizations asking them to either update their existing letter or to turn a letter in. The letters provide a source of written information for students who inquire about organizations at the Student Activities Office. A return-addressed organization interest card is enclosed in the Student Activities brochure which is distributed by theN ew Student Information staff to high school students and anyone interested in attending BSU. Prospective students check all organizations in which they are interested and mail the card back to the Student Activities Office. Student Activities then mails out the introductory letters kept on file, with the hope of interesting the prospective student in BSU and the co-curricular activities on campus. Student Activities also provides the name of the interested student to the student organization.

There are currently 120 introductory letters on file which is an increase from last year's 1 03letters on file. This represents a 17% increase from last year and a 64% increase from the previous year. The letters have been entered on the computer, using a consistent format that allows for a contact name, address, and phone number to be added to the letterhead. The organization interest card is updated twice each year in an effort to keep up with the growth of new organizations on campus.

A total of 644 interest cards were returned this year, a four percent decrease from last year's 668. Of the 664 returned, 238 were from Organization Directories with 406 returned from the Student Activities Brochure and other sources. On the average, it took the office assistant 2-3 days to respond to each interest card received. Of the 5,847 +directories distributed during the summer and early fall, 238 interest cards were returned. That makes a 4.1% return on our efforts. Last year 5 ,315+ directories were distributed and 322 interest cards were returned which reflects a 2% drop from last year's 6.1 %.

Table Tent Promotion

The plastic three-extension table tents are currently located in Maggie's Cafe and Table Rock Cafe. The purpose of the table tent is to promote the activities and events sponsored by University Dining Services by Marriott, Student Union & Activities, ASBSU, the Student Programs Board, and other student organizations and departments. Each of the primary users are responsible for creating their own table tents and turning them in to the Student Activities Office for distribution. The Student Activities office assistant distributes the neW material and removes the old at least once a week. Whenever necessary, the office assistant makes an additional round of distribution on Friday afternoon.

While space is not currently dedicated for BSU departments or recognized student organizations, requests are allowed when space is available. Besides the recognized student organizations and the sponsoring organizations, the other departments that utilized the space for promoting events are: the Bookstore, Athletics Department, Career Planning & Placement, Studies Abroad, Morrison Center, and the Women's Center. The residence halls are allowed to use the table tents in Table Rock Cafe for

promoting their events.

Student Activities

Fall Organization Fair

The purpose of the organization fairs is to provide an opportunity for the general student population to learn of campus activities, gain exposure for recruiting, and raise funds for club projects. Each Organization Fair shows an increase in interest from both student organizations and the student body. The 1992 Fall Organization Fair was no exception. The Fair, held on Wednesday, September 30th on the Quad, brought participation from sixty-two groups- an increase of9o/o over the Fall Organization Fair of1991. The theme of the Fair, entitled "Fall Fiesta- A chance to join the Salsa and Spice of Student Organizations," was emphasized by the music of Mariachi Estrella. a local, "south-of-the-Border" style band. The food, fun, games and music all seemed to come together to make the "Fall Fiesta" one of the best organization fairs to date.

Spring Organization Fair

The 1993 Spring Organization Fair showed yet another increase in attendance with fifty-three organizations signed up to participate and forty-seven actually attending. Even with those absent, there was still a 12% increase in participation over the 1992 Spring Organization Fair. The Fair, entitled "Caribbean Carnival", was held on Wednesday, April 21st, on the Quad under warm, sunny skies. With Caribbean-style music playing in the background, the atmosphere was further enhanced by the colorful booths decorated in island fashion. For the first time, prizes were awarded for the best decorated student organization booths. The Associated Psychology Students/Psi Chi took first place followed by the Human Resources Association and the BSU Anthropology Club. .

The overall response to the Fair was very positive. Of the twenty-seven organizations that returned their evaluation forms, all were pleased with the fair and plan to participate in future fairs. A total of 158 "new recruits/interested parties" were identified and most groups expressed their appreciation for the exposure the Organization Fair gave them. When asked how they would feel about having only one fair held in the fall of each year, the majority of respondents made it clear that they wanted to continue having one each semester.

1993 ASBSU Hall of Fame and Outstanding Student Organization Awards Banquet

This banquet recognized the Advisor of the Year, Student Organization of the Year, Hall of Fame Inductees, Student Programs Board award recipients, and the outstanding organizations in the following categories: Academic, Campus Residence Hall, Cultural, Greek, Professional, Religious, Service/Special Interest, Sports, and New Club of theY ear.

There were 430 tickets picked up prior to the dinner. With 356 tickets taken at the door, this illustrates an 83% show rate and a 137% increase in actual attendance from last year's figures of 150 people. Sixty­three Boise State University student organizations were represented by those who attended. Twenty-nine student organizations submitted entries for Outstanding Organization and thirteen submitted entries for Outstanding Advisor, an increase from thirteen applications submitted for outstanding organization and eight received for outstanding advisor the previous year. The price of tickets was dropped to $5.00 for each

additional ticket. This brought in $520.00 in revenue as compared to $270.00 from last year. Three free tickets were given to each organization instead of two which has been the practice in the past. Advisors were mailed one of the free tickets in an attempt to encourage higher attendance.

The promotion for this year's dinner was increased greatly in comparison to past years. By using the ~. banner space, table tents, organization mail boxes, and the organization fair people were made much more aware of the event. The Student Activities Office also formed an organizations focus group to get input on the overall dinner and effect change through the group's suggestions.

This year the Student Programs Board presented their awards for Outstanding Committee member and Outstanding Executive Board member. The announcement of the Student Activities andASBSU Awards were alternated to break the monotony of presentations and keep the audience's attention. Three portraits were unveiled this year: ASBSU presidents Todd Sholty and Lisa Sanchez; and BSU president, Dr. Charles Ruch.

Support Services to Associated Students of BSU

ASBSU Student Government

The Associated Students experienced a year of active participation in governance and influence in institutional policy development and decision-making, and improved communication among its branches. A well-organized retreat work session was held in McCall, Idaho, where ASBSU members worked at improving communication skills, problem-solving, team and trust building. There was strong participation from all branches in ASBSU. The Executive Officers played a major role in producing a voter registration drive on campus which realized more than 1 ,280 registrations over a three day period. Other Associated Student initiatives included: advocating for a multi-ethnic course addition to the core curriculum, securing free telephones for student use on campus, and researching and developing a proposal for student dental insurance. The insurance program was carefully developed with university risk management involvement. At the end of the year, the Associated students learned that the university had overturned its initial decision concerning bidding and that they would be required to competitively bid the insurance program. ASBSU chose not to renew the contract of its attorney, who had provided legal services for the previous six years and contracted with Lois Weston-Hart, wife of an ASBSU justice.

20

Student Activities

Activism and initiative to establish working relationships within ASBSU continued as the President and Legislative Branches worked closely through the year. ASBSU officers focused significant energy in their involvement throughout the university presidential search process. For a third year, ASBSU officers continued to advocate community service and volunteerism through active personal involvement in the "Into The Streets" program, Boise River Clean-Up, and amendment of the Senate Code to require community service for ASBSU funding. The ASBSU President secured a one year commitment for funding from the office of the BSU President to establish a student community service coordinator. For the second year, ASBSU proposed a fee increase for an ongoing community services project which was unsuccessful. The university agreed to partially fund the project with ASBSU for the 93-94 school year.

Active participation in University committees was very evident. ASBSU members were regular participants on the University Publications Board, the University Parking Advisory Committee, the Curriculum Committee, Student Union Board of Governors, and the Child care Center Planning group. The year was characterized by strong interest in voter registration, scrutinizing parking policy, preventing fee increases, and a debate on proposals to expand Chaffee Residence Hall and renovate Morrison and Driscoll Halls. The Associated Students were very active in Homecoming, Organizational Fairs, Volunteer Services, and student organization activities. President Sholty, Vice-President Sanchez, and a number of Senators played crucial roles in supporting these programs.

Generally, there was exceptional cooperation between all branches in the Associated Students and significant projects were created and addressed. Major legislation included funding: the Martin Luther King, Jr. Human Rights program, Homecoming, Leadership Quest, Spring Fling, Cinco de Mayo, and support to various student organizations to attend national conferences and competitions. Internally, legislation was passed revising the Senate Code, expanding the ASBSU Code of Ethics, amending the Financial Code, and revising the Election Code.

An unanticipated transition in leadership occurred when ASBSU President Todd Sholty was removed from office by the Judiciary for violation of a grade point average requirement. The remainder of the term was fulfilled by President Lisa Sanchez and appointed Vice-President Fafa Alidjani.

Judiciary

The 1992-1993 school year was one of productive and diverse experiences for the Judiciary. While having a full board, the Judiciary lost two student Justices and afaculry Justice but were fortunate to obtain some very qualified and motivated people to assume the vacant positions. The Judiciary now looks forward to enhancing the effectiveness of their role in student government through increased training on issues that pertain directly to judicial decision making.

A summary of]udiciary activity shows that nine opinions were rendered, six appeals were heard and eight cases were decided. There were ten new organizations recognized, eleven existing organizations that were amended, and fourteen organizations that were derecognized. Derecognition occurs upon request of the organization, or failure by the organization to meet specific criteria outlined in the "Getting Organized" manual.

9-24-92 An ASBSU organization requested the Judiciary's opinion on the Senate treatment of Senate Bill #4

(Sept. 8, I992) in relation to the Senate Code of Ethics, and if the Senate's behavior was contrary to state open meeting and Sunshine laws. The Judiciary responded to this question by noting that there is no provision for remedy if the Senate violates its own code of ethics. Second, theASBSU Senate is not under the auspices of the state open meeting laws, as it is not a body created by state statute.

092193-02 10-08-92 AnASBSU Senator requested if Senate fund allocation concerning Senate Bill #I2 (Oct. 6, I992) was

constitutional. Upon review it was determined that the Senate has the fiduciary responsibility and authority, and as long as the Senate follows their own rules on financial distribution, it was determined that this is a constitutional expenditure.

Student Activities

092193-03 01-21-93 An ASBSU Senator asked if a person could run for, and hold executive office if he knew he would not

be in Boise during the summer months. Judiciary restricted the question to the test of extracurricular criteria for students. If the student who runs for office meets this criteria then on-campus presence may not be required, but the service award is not available for the position elected to.

092193-04 01-28-93 The Chairman of the Student Union Board of Governors asked Judiciary to render an opinion on business practices of vendors in the Union. The vendors were offering "Free" gifts in exchange for student applications concerning credit cards. The Judiciary reviewed the Consumer Protection Act and the Consumer Protection Regulations, and found that violations of the act were most probably occurring. The word "Free" means that there is no duty on the part of the student to apply for a card in order to obtain the free gift. The J udiciaty found that the forum for this complaint lies with the Director of the Student Union, and in the case of non-action by the Director, then the complaint should be forwarded to the Idaho Attorney General.

092193-05 01-28-93 The Chairman for the Election Board asked the Judiciary to render an opinion on the issue of number of Senator-at-large seats that should be available. The Judiciary reviewed the ASBSU Constitution and the student enrollment, and found that there was cause to increase the number of seats for the position of Senator-at-large by one seat.

092193-06 2-18-93 The Senate Pro-T em asked the Judiciary if Senate support for an issue that was unconstitutional was in itself an unconstitutional act. The Judiciary found that Senate support in terms of"Resolution" for an issue found to be unconstitutional is an expression not forbidden, and thus allowable.

092193-07 2-25-93 This opinion, as requested, has five questions that concern specific points about monies paid to an ineligible officer of ASBSU.

Item #1 ~was answered to reflect that the point of ineligibility was upon receipt of grades that would show a GPA less than needed to hold office, as per the ASBSU Constitution.

Item #2 ~could not be answered as there exists confidential information not available to this board.

Item #3 ~ was answered that reimbursement is in order for any monies received after date of ineligibility, and that the money owed should be tendered to the ASBSU Treasurer for deposit to the appropriate account.

Item #4 ~ could not be answered as there exists confidential information not available to this board.

Item #5~ was answered "yes" as there are no constitutional restrictions that would inhibit a candidate's running for office while still financially obligated to ASBSU.

Student Activities

092193-08 4-8-93 AnASBSU Senator asked Judiciary for an opinion on a dispersal of funds from the Senate. The Judiciary found the dispersal of funds violated the Senate Code that speaks of such dispersal, and thus was unconstitutional in nature.

092193-09 4-22-93 The ASBSU Treasurer requested clarification as to length of time when determining the amount of matching funds for which a club is eligible. Judiciary found that when a club is derecognized and then at a later time re-recognized, the club's length of time in ASBSU is started over at the new club's reintroduction to ASBSU.

judicial Appeals

A-92193-01 A student living on campus had appealed a decision made against him by the Residence Hall Judicial Board on the grounds that the sanction was too harsh. After review, the ASBSU Judiciary affirmed the Residence Hall Judicial Board decision and denied the appeal.

A-92193-02 This appeal from Student Residential Life was brought forward during the Winter break between semesters. Judiciary normally does not hear cases brought forward during this time, and this was referred to an administrative hearing officer. The appeal was affirmed and a rehearing was scheduled.

A-92193-03 This appeal was from a Student Residential Life hearing officer's decision. As in A-92/93-02, this case was heard during the winter break, and thus not accepted by Judiciary. The hearing officer assigned found that the sanction imposed was reasonable and denied any further action to be taken.

A-92193-04 As in the past two, this appeal was not heard by the ASBSU Judiciary because of the time of year that it carne forward. The administrative hearing officer on appeal affirmed the lower hearing board and denied further action.

A-92193-05 A candidate was removed from the ballot of election to an ASBSU position, and appealed the decision of the Election Board concerning this removal. The Judiciary reviewed this appeal and found that the Election Board acted appropriately, thus appeal was denied.

A-92193-06 The Election Board had made a decision concerning the status of a student running for the Senate position of Graduate School Senator. The criteria for this position includes the status of the student as a graduate student. The Election Board found that the Student in question was a graduate pursuing a second baccalaureate degree. Although accepted through the graduate college, the status given the student was not one of graduate student. The Judiciary affirmed the Election Board and denied the appeal.

judiciary Cases for 92193

C-92193-01 The Judiciary heard a case that arose from a complaint against the Election Board. It was found that there were material circumstances that promulgated an air of miscommunication between the Election Board and the student. The Judiciary had the Election Board place the student on the election ballot.

C-92193-02 A student brought a complaint of sexual harassment before Judiciary. It was found that the alleged perpetrator was not a student, and thus the Judiciary was the wrong forum for this complaint. Case dismissed.

Evidence did not support allegation and the case was not heard.

Following the Fall Election, several members resigned their positions and President Todd Sholty appointed a new board including Vice-Chair Amber Erickson as Chair. Several issues surfaced during the election that the Board discussed including: intolerance to posting on outdoor building surfaces, poll locations, student vs. temporary help to manage the poll booths, disclosing candidate G PA and campaign spending amounts. No action was taken on any of the issues addressed.

Meetings were held over posting in classrooms which ended with an amendment to theASBSU Election Code eliminating campaign posters in classrooms. This change went into effect following the election. The board disqualified one candidate for not attending a Candidate Orientation Meeting and another for failing to meet requirements for graduate senator.

Student Exchange

The National Student Exchange (NSE) is a student exchange program first offered by ASBSU and Student Activities in 1972. The program is intended to provide students with the opportunity to widen their educational and cultural experiences to over 107 participating campuses in the United States and its territories. The NSE program is continuing to work toward its goal ofhaving an exchange opportunity in each state. The student coordinator terms run on a calendar year. Fall semester, Teresa Coles finished up her one-year term and ASBSU President Todd Sholty appointed Rebecca Evans as the 1993 coordinator in January. The student coordinator made weekly reports at the Thursday ASBSU Senate meeting and will continue to do so in the term ahead.

During the year, the NSE office continued to promote the program through mailing, information booths in various campus buildings, Organization Fairs, and an orientation meeting. Many of these events were cosponsored with Studies Abroad. In September, the new Studies Abroad Coordinator, Jose Bilbao was appointed. Since then, we have worked together to promote the NSE and Studies Abroad programs. In February, Studies Abroad and NSE cosponsored an evening orientation meeting. This meeting invited students interested in travel to meet with representatives from both exchange programs, students who have participated in the programs, and Dr. Rita Shelly from the BSU Financial Aid Office. Thirty students attended this introductory meeting.

The poster produced last year to promote Studies Abroad and NSE was again distributed on campus and in the Boise community. To this poster, a postage paid information card was attached that could be completed and mailed back to the respective exchange program. One hundred and fifty-five cards requesting information about NSE were received. Studies Abroad also received over 500 cards. Each student who sent in a reply was mailed a brochure about the program and was encouraged to schedule a meeting with the student coordinator to gather additional materials. There was also an NSE brochure mailed to all BSU faculty and professional staff which informed them about the program so that they could advise their students about the opportunities NSE provides.

The 25th annual National Placement Conference was held in Chicago on March 17-20 and was very successful for BSU students. Twenty-five students were placed for the 1993-94 academic year. BSU accepted thirteen students with several placements made after the conference. There were ten cancella­tions. Successful placements were:

Considerations:

• Update and review promotional strategies. • Establish a connection with the Foreign Language Department to better inform students of the

opportunity to study Spanish in Puerto Rico through the NSE program. • Provide an informal activity for incoming students instead of the formal reception.

Student Programs Board

The Executive Board began the year in August with a retreat to Bogus Basin Resort. After becoming acquainted, the Board set a number of goals for the year. The three most important were: communication between all staff members, diversity within our programming, and increased effectiveness of our promotion. The staff was able to meet with their advisors and learn much about SPB 's past and the expectations for the future. By the end of the weekend everyone was excited to return and begin planning their first events.

The largest administrative challenge the Board faced this year was keeping all of the positions filled. SPB lost a few people the day before the Board Retreat was scheduled and a few weeks after school started, circumstances arose forcing two more people to resign. Over the course of two months the Board lost six people from four of the seven positions. Though off to a rocky start, in the end we survived and put together a great fall semester of events. It was very impressive to

see the level of dedication which developed within the staff this year. Performing Arts completed its second successful series despite the time frame in which the new Chairperson had to work. The Concerts Committee also developed a new program this year called "2 Bands 2 Bucks" which consisted of two local bands playing every Friday night.

In November four members of the Board (Melissa Klug, Kandi Walters, Scott Rognlie, and Dawn Bengochea) and advisor Rob Meyer, attended the annual NACA conference (National Association for Campus Activities) in Portland, Oregon. While there, members attended several educational session dealing with promotion, working with agents, and how to put on successful events. In addition to the educational sessions, there was also the opportunity to see many acts of performers who were available to be booked in the region. Several ideas for programming possibilities were brought and implemented in our fall events. The only complaint is that there were barely enough people to cover all the sessions, because several would be going on simultaneously. Next year the Board plans to drive rather than fly so more of the staff can attend.

The most visable programming challenge this year has been the ftlms program. The quality of the projected film image was poor. The films committee could not attract the crowd needed to justify the existence of the program. The staff pulled together and supported the films program when SPB went to Senate to ask for money to purchase new 35mm projectors. Senate awarded twenty-five thousand dollars for new projectors. Next spring SPB will see the unfolding of a whole new films program.

1992-93 Student Programs Board Events

The SPB Summer and Fall event schedules and attendance figures were as follows:

Over Exposure Four July through August • Films Committee • Behind the Special Events Center Attendance: varied from 40- 200 people per show Expenses: $2,242.42

Over Exposure has been an ongoing success for the films committee. Students and community alike enjoy coming and listening to a band out on the grass followed by a movie. This is one of the many programs SPB has put on for free. This was the first year Senate funded this event. For approximately $4 per student, this event has been widely attended. This program is vital to SPB's programming series and should continue to be funded. (Please see listing of film titles and dates)

Addams Family Dance Thursday, August 27, 1992- 8:00 • Special Events • Ada Hatch; Free to new students Attendance: 200 Expenses: paid by New Student Orientation Committee

Special Events committee, along with members of the New Student Orientation Committee, put on a great dance for the new students. Blanche Evans models were present as the year before, only this time they posed as the Addams family. They drew a lot of attention with their great costumes and wax figure-like appearance. The music supplied by Rocky Mountain Roll was great and we had plenty of food and drinks. Once they felt comfortable, students had a good time.

Defusing Racial Tensions Wednesday, September 9, 1992 • Lecture Committee • Ada Hatch; Free Attendance: 8 5 Expenses: $20.00

A panel was organized to discuss and discover issues concerning several diverse groups in Boise. Several news channels were present to cover the event. Some of the panel included: Rudy Pena, Chairman, Idaho Commission on Hispanic Affairs, Bill Wassmuth, Northwest Coalition Against Malicious Harassment, and Peter Angstadt, Police Chief Caldwell, Idaho. The panel was well informed on their topics. A vety informative discussion.

Human Gyroscope Wednesday, September 30, 1992 • Special Events • Quad; $2 students Attendance: 1 00 Expenses: $100.00

This program was done during BSU' s annual fall organization fair. This activity helped to draw attention to our booth. Students had fun but many were apprehensive to try at first. Once they tried, they loved it. Something exciting like this should be done every year at the organizational fair to grab attention for SPB!

Wtld Hearts Can't Be Broken Saturday, October 4, 1992 - 3:00• Family Activities (program in conjunction with Parent/

Family weekend) • Special Events Center; $1 students & $3 general

37

Attendance: 4 Expenses: $262

Student Activities

There was a problem with the person who was supposed to run the ftlm not showing up. The Union Manager and Audio-Visual Technician assisted the four people who did attend. It was later thought the day and time chosen were not the best.

Wet 'N' Wdd Volleyball Tuesday, October 13, 1992-4:00 • Special Events • Volleyball Courts; Free Attendance: 128 Expenses: paid by Homecoming Committee

This new style of volleyball went over extremely well. Instead of using the traditional volleyball, water balloons were used. Each team had an even number of players who paired up and used towels to catch and return the balloons without breaking them. Many school clubs and organizations participated in the event. A wet and wild time was had by all !!!

Alive After Five with the Broncos Friday, October 16, 1992- 5:00 • Concerts Committee • In the Grove; Free Attendance: 500 Expenses: $500.00

The last day of Homecoming Week our concerts committee co-sponsored Kathy Miller and Chicken Cordon Blue to play in the Grove at Alive Mter Five. During the evening before the parade, our Homecoming King and Queen were crowned. Students had a great time dancing, eating and watching the parade afterwards.

Jerry Harris Master Hypnotist Thursday, October 22, 1992- 8:00 • Comedy committee (ACU-I Conference) Special Events

Center; $3 students & $6 general Attendance: 16 5 Expenses: $1068.75

Audience really enjoyed this event! Participants were chosen from the audience (35). The show went over the scheduled time but Mr. Harris was glad to oblige the audience when they cheered for him to continue. The only suggestion for next time is to have less participants because of the size of our stage (1 0-15).

Little Women and The Strangers Friday, October 23, 1992- 9:30 • Concerts Committee (ACU-I Conference) Ada Hatch

Ballroom $5.00 students, $7.00 General Attendance: 40 Expenses: $ 2400 (Honorarium: $1500)

The bands arrived almost three hours late. This caused problems with getting the sound checks done because another group had our performance room for the hour prior to the show. Consequently the show started late which resulted in low attendance. People came but didn't want to wait around for the sound checks to be completed. Apart being late the Little Women were hard to deal with personally. We made sure to report our experience to the National Association of Campus Activities to hopefully prevent other schools from the same headache.

Stutknt Activities

Up All Night Saturday, October 24, 1992- midnight • Special Events Committee (ACU-I Conference)

• BSU Recreation Center; $1 students & $3 general Attendance: 168 Expenses: $62

This year Homecoming decided not to use their free night at the Student Union Recreation Center so it was offered to Special Events. Special Events put on an event much like their traditional spring program Midnight Madness with events like human bowling. Brava! was convinced to stay open and Greg Blaesing donated free pizza. Many guests from the A CU-I conference held at BSU this year enjoyed this event.

Michael Jesse Bennet- Christopher Columbus' Tuesday, October 27, 1992- 6:00 • Lectures Committee • Bishop Barnwell; free Attendance: 1 00 Expenses: $408.38 (Honorarium $ 400.00 )

Mr. Bennet began his lecture dressed as Christopher Columbus. He gave a fiery portrayal of Christopher Columbus and stayed in character the entire time. The lecture was very intriguing and the audience seemed very caught up in what he had to say. Because of the large attendance we had to bring in more seating until we could fit no more.

2 Bands 2 Bucks Concerts series- Psychic Knot & El Dopamine Friday, October 30, 1992 • Concerts Committee • Jordan ballroom; $2 all Attendance: 80 Expenses: $45

This was the first of a series of local band performances on campus. This was a chance to give some exposure to some ofBoise' s local bands and also offer some alternative musical ente;tainment to students for a low cost.

Nightmare on University Drive (Halloween Party) Saturday, October 31, 1992 • Family Activities • Jordan Ballroom, Free Attendance: 450 Expenses: $1,527.26

Super successful!!! We added a few new activities like pictures with a scarecrow and spin art, which were loved by the kids. The haunted house ( built by CKI) was better than last years and we were happy to have help from many of ASBSU's senators.

2 Bands 2 Bucks - Splinter & Dirtboy Friday, November 6, 1992 • Concerts Committee • Grace Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 12 5 Expenses: $78

Good event, more attendance than last show!

The Legendary Wid Thursday, November 12, 1992 • Comedy Committee • Grace Jordan Ballroom, $3 students &

$6 general Attendance: 6 5 Expenses: $1,808.00 (Honorarium $1 ,250.00)

39

Student Activities

The Wid was a great performer and everyone who carne had a great time. Unfortunately, there were so many other events going on that night in the Union that attendancewasn' t as high as we would have liked. It was also mentioned that the poster wasn't eye catching enough.

Life Week November 10-12, 1992-7:00 • Lectures Committee • Morrison, Chaffee and Towers; Free Attendance: 20 Expenses: $40.00

This was an informal three night discussion of different life issues. Topics included: sexual issues/ relationships, personal wellness/profiles, and finance. This was a great event idea, unfortunately we had a communication breakdown between the individual residential advisors. Apparently they didn't communicate with one another when and where our events were so, things became confused and attendance was low. Next time we know to speak with the dorm directors to get better cooperation from the residential advisors.

2 Bands 2 Bucks -Wirehead & Psyop Friday, November 13, 1992 • Concerts Committee • Ada Hatch; Free Attendance: 12 5 Expenses: $47

Ada Hatch was not the best room for sound quality, but we had a great turnout.

Cultural Diversity Panel Tuesday, November 17, 1992 • Lectures Committee (Co-sponsored with a communication lab

class) • Grace Jordan; Free Attendance: 200 Expenses: $125.00 (Refreshments and publicity)

This panel, though much like our previous one, expanded to include other groups frequently discrimi­nated against. The purpose of this event was to discuss where Boise stands now, and what will happen in the future when these minorities begin to grow along with the rest of the city. Will attitudes change? How will we personally be affected? What can we do to educate ourselves and others? Representatives were from such diverse areas as the Physically- Challenged, Gay and Lesbian, Native Americans, Blacks, Hispanics. Discussion was intense, mostly due to the fact that most of the questions came from the audience. They were able to ask freely what they wanted to know and the quality of the speakers chosen to be on the panel were incredible (Betty Hecker-AffirrnativeAction, Mickey McKinaly- Gay and Lesbian Alliance, Pete Putra- Native American Representative etc.) .

disappear fear Wednesday, November 18, 1992 • Concerts Committee • Grace Jordan Ballroom $4.50

students & $6.50 general Attendance: 1 00 Expenses: $2324.00

disappear fear has a large following here in Boise so we were really excited. We learned too late, though, that they were doing a second show at the Kaffee Klatch the next night for a cheaper admission. We lost much of our audience to that surprise. Still, they performed wonderfully and the audience jived through the entire show.

Student Activities

Chaplin Festival Thursday, November 19,1992 • Performing Arts Committee • Special Event Center$ 5 students

& $1 0 general Attendance: 71 Expenses: $1030.00 (Honorarium $500.00)

This event was difficult to promote because it was being listed under the films section of the entertainment section of the papers. People didn't realize a live jazz group played with the film. One other problem we had during the show was the quality of the film, but it was an old film and we had no way to improve it. Many senior citizens attended, along with BSU students and enjoyed the music of Aspen Jazz (a local jazz group).

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Gravletruck & Bok R Tov Friday, November 20, 1992 • Concerts Committee • Grace Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 170 Expenses: $4 5

Excellent Show! The audience loved it! The attendance just keeps growing with each show.

"Jungle Book"( Film) Sunday, December 6, 1992 • Family Activities • Special Event Center, regular films adm. or

bring a toy Attendance: 30 Expenses: $393.45

Santa (Who was played by one of our illustrious Senators, CJ Martin) was very popular at this event, listening to wish lists and handing out candy canes. Many people brought toys which helped put us over the top in our canned food drive challenge with ASBSU (HA! HA!). Sunday was not thought to be the best day for this event in the future.

Spirit of Christmas Brass Wednesday, December 9, 1992 • Performing Arts Committee • Spec Center, $5.50 students

& $10.50 general Attendance: 131 Expenses: $2150.00 (Honorarium $2000.00)

Washington Brass sounded great and was very entertaining. Many people commented they really enjoyed the concert.

Benjamin Hoff- The T e of Piglet Thursday, December 10, 1992 • Lectures Committee • Grace Jordan D, $1 students- $2 fac/

staff- $3 general Attendance: 300 Expenses: $1600.00 (Honorarium $1 ,000.00)

Benjamin Hoff was a very warm and sincere speaker. The audience seemed to be instantly drawn to him. Books were available to purchase for the book signing afterward, but many people brought their own. The only problem we had was lack of seating. We weren't expecting three hundred people and the room we were in had very little room to expand the seating.

Student Activities

Santa at the BSU Child care Center Friday, December 11, 1992 • Family Activities • BSU Child care Center Attendance: 7 5 Expenses: $77.16

Santa (Our fearless ASBSU President Todd Sholty) visited the daycare with presents (books) for each of the children. The kids had a great time and so did Santa. The child care center had cookies and punch for Santa and his helpers. Definitely a program to do again.

John Rogers- Comedian Friday,January 29, 1993• Comedy Committee • Special Events Center- $1 students, $3 general Attendance: 206 Expenses: $1392.50 • Honorarium: $1000.00

Audience loved the show! One hour was the perfect amount of time. Many of the audience members got to meet John after the show and some of the committee members took him out on the town afterwards. John Rogers and his agency were great to work with.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Deep Down Trauma Hounds and Dirtboy Friday, February 5,1993• Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 230 Expenses: $460.50 • Honorarium: $350.00

Definitely a crowd pleaser. This band was contracted after Big Mountain called and cancelled their tour. We had a good crowd regardless.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Haggis and Substructure Friday, February, 12 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 8 5 Expenses: $119.88 • Honorarium: 20% of door (ten percent to each band)

After the last show, the committee decided to give the bands a percentage of the door as incentive and compensation other than the pizza. We will see how this works out and decide at semesters end whether to continue this process or not. We didn't have as high of an attendance to this event but, it was still a good show. These bands may not have as large of a following as the other bands.

just Another One Night Stand Tuesday, February, 16 1993 • Comedy Committee • Towers dormitories Free Attendance: 55 Expenses: $131.00

This event was continued from 1991-1992's successful event, "One Night Stand." The comedy committee made a few changes in rules and judging process to make things a bit simpler for the flow of the event. Five brave souls got up in front of the mic. Todd Sholty (ASBSU President) emceed the show. Todd did a great job and will emcee the remaining two events. Everyone enjoyed the show and it was something different to do.

Midnight Madness Friday, February, 191993 • Special Events Committee • SUB Recreation Center- $1 BSUIISU

students, $3 gen. (free w/ basketball tickets stubs) Attendance: 200 Expenses:$ 783.70

42

Student Activities

When the Union was open at midnight all of the staff was prepared (including the many senators, Terry Jones, FafaAlajani, CJ Martin, that volunteered to help). The event went over smoothly. We didn't have any pr~blems with overcrowding like last year with the many high school kids who showed up. Everyone enjoyed themselves and most people stayed until the very end.

Poe Alone Saturday, February, 20,1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Special Events Center- $1 High

school, $3 BSU student, faculty, staff, & general Attendance: 633! Expenses: $2870.00

The Performing Arts committee decided to invite local high schools to attend this event. Because there was such an overwhelming response the committee decided to schedule a matinee. All of the high schools attended the afternoon show, leaving the evening performance open for campus students and communiry. The show was excellent! This was the largest crowd ever for a Performing Arts event. Great job by the committee and the coordinator.

Bruce Bridges-Lecturer Thursday, February 25, 1993 • Lectures Committee- Co-sponsored w/ The Black Student

Union (Black History month) • Ada Hatch- students free, $1 staff, $2 general Attendance: 80 Expenses: $3475.00- (Hotel paid for by Black Student Union) • Honorarium: 3475.00

Bruce Bridges was an excellent, enthusiastic speaker. He had very positive interaction with the audience and was very knowledgeable on the subject of Black history. We only wish attendance could have been higher for such a dynamic speaker. Next time the committee will try concentrating on more of a target audience.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Stone Ground & Caustic Resin Friday, February 26, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 160 Expenses: $75.00 • Honorarium: 20% ($54)

Caustic Resin was not well liked but, Stone Ground was a good band and attendance went up from last time.

Eric Tingstad and Nancy Rumble Friday, March 5, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Special Events Center Attendance: 90 Honorarium: $2250.00

Though there was no other shows or sports events scheduled on the date of the this event when it was booked, several plays, musicals, and a big BSU sporting event suddenly landed on the same day. Considering all the competition this event went very well with an attendance of ninety. This New Age music was like nothing you've heard. This would be a great act to bring again (on the appropriate day).

Just Another One Night Stand Tuesday, March 9, 1993 • Comedy Committee • Chaffee Hall Attendance: 80 Expenses: $100.00

43

Student Activities

The comedians were great. We had a total of six performers that evening. The students thought it was great to have entertainment come to where they live and for free!!!

The Magic of Stewart and Lori Friday, March 12, 1993 • Special Events Committee • Special Events Center Attendance: 166 Honorarium: $1000.00

Before the event the committee decided to do a teaser in Brava! This went over really well and drew a large attendance to the workshop before the show (70 people). The show went great and many people were pleasantly surprised at the level of talent the couple possessed.

Ally Acker- W omens Contributions to the History of Film Thursday, March 11, 1993 • Lectures Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 1 5 Honorarium: $3700.00

The low attendance to such a high priced lecture was of considerable concern to the Executive Board. It was determined that poor publicity, combined with the lack of communication with the group organizing "Women's Week" was the cause of the small turnout. Apparently, another event was scheduled for the same night in the "Women's Week" program. These kind of situations should be more closely monitored.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- El Dopamine and King Pancake Friday, March 12, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 205 Honorarium: 20% of $460.00

Both bands did a great job. The crowd especially liked King Pancake. They would be great for the Over Exposure program in the summer. We hope they can make it!

Allen Ginsberg Monday, March 15, 1993 • Lectures Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 650 Co-sponsorship: $800.00

This event was produced by many local groups pulling together: Limberlost Press, Boise City Arts Commission, Idaho Commission on the Arts, Sun Valley Center for the Arts, and of course the Student Programs Board. We did the publicity for campus and also had our committee present to help at the door for the event. The lecturer was overwhelmingly successful. More chairs had to be brought in to accommodate all of the crowd!

Ricks College Showtime Tuesday, March 16, 1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Special Events Center Attendance: 480 Co-sponsorship: $180.00

SPB cosponsored this event with LDSSA. The event was basically a showcase of all different types of entertainment (singing, dancing etc ... ). The Special Events Center holds only 435 seats so chairs were brought in to attempt to accommodate everyone. SPB would do an event like this again for the opportunity to work with another student group.

Student Activities

Lend Me a Tenor Wednesday, March 17, 1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Special Events Center Attendance: 152 Honorarium: $4500.00

This was the first full-cast play that the Performing Arts Committee has ever brought and it went over great. Many people asked afterward why we didn't bring more acts such as this. It was mentioned that it might be better to have such a program on the weekend instead of a week day.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Psychic Not and Dirtboy Friday, March 19, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 114 Honorarium: 20% of $184.00

Attendance was a little lower than usual this time but, the show was still good and the audience enjoyed it!

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Dirt Fisherman and Boneflower Friday, March 26, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 230 Honorarium: 20% of $460.00

Show was Excellent! Audience wanted to know when they would be back.

Halfway Home Friday, April2, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 80 Honorarium: $1500.00

The Halfway Home put on a great show. They had a Janis Joplin-type of sound. Attendance wasn't as big as we have for the local bands but that is the challenging part of bringing in outside acts.

Just Another One Night Stand- Finals Tuesday, April6, 1993 • Comedy Committee • Towers Hall Attendance: 80+ Expenses: $160.00

This was the grand finale. The first through third place winners from each of the last three competitions were invited to compete against each other for first, second, and third prizes. We had the best of the best at this show so the audience was excited. We did have some accusations of plagiarism from a few of the competitors at one another so this is an area that will have to be further thought out and rules made more clear. Todd Sholty did a great job at this event as well as all the others earlier in the year that he emceed for us. It is very helpful to have someone witty and quick on their feet to do that job. Thanks Todd!!!

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Whipping Boy and Unlisted Friday, April2, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 100 Honorarium: 20% of $200.00

This combination of bands was strange because Whipping Boy is an alternative band, while Unlisted is a rock band. It may be better to stick to like bands playing together.

Executive I Senatorial Election Debates Monday 12th and Tuesday 13th of April• Lectures committee • Brava during the noon hour Attendance: 150 Expemes: $0.00

This event was not organized early enough, therefore many of the candidates were not able to make the date. Next year it is important to contact the candidates by letter in plenty of time for them to make arrangements. Once the debates got underway everything seemed to go smoothly. Next year it would be beneficial to have some type ofSPB event before the debates to draw a more diverse crowd. Every year it seems like the only people who attend are those somehow involved with the process, be it friends, family or campaign managers etc ...

Mid-Day Expressions- Sandon Mayhew Trio Wednesday, April 14, 1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Brava! at noon Attendance: 60+ Honorarium: $225.00

This was the first noon event of this type for SPB this year. The trio consisted of piano, guitar, and bass. Audience was suprised but enjoyed the show.

Tim Mac Neil- Magician Friday, April 16, 1993 • Family Activities • Special Events Center Attendance: 200 Honorarium: $350.00

Tim Mac Neil is a local magician who is great with kids! He put on a wonderful show that was completely aimed at young kids. He would definitely be worth bringing back.

Radoslav Lorkovic Saturday, April 17, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Special Events Center Attendance: 1 0 Honorarium: $500.00

We were really disappointed about the low attendance at this event. The concerts chair was concerned with bringing diverse types of music to his programming this year. The committee was careful to get publicity up in crucial areas of town and campus associated with this type of music. Later, we also found out that the Cultural Music Festival was going on that week.

Mid-day Expressions- Brad Nelson (duo) Monday, April19, 1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Brava at noon Attendance: 60+ Honorarium: $100.00

twelve dollars. Many of the players were very serious, so it would be to SPB's benefit to include on promo and announce before the games that the calls of the referees are final. Prizes were given out to first, second, and third, and everyone who participated received an official t-shirt.

Spring Fling- Rejoice in the Sun Sunday, April25, 1993 • Entire Executive Board • Julia Davis Park Attendance: 1 000+ Expenses: $7000.00

This year was SPB's 15th annual Spring Fling!!! The music performed at our event, in Julia Davis Park, ranged from country to steel drum with a little jazz to top it off. We had our traditional downs, face painting, and caricature artist which the crowd enjoyed. For a change this year we brought a Comedy/ Juggling duo, "The Passing Zone" to entertain the crowd between bands. Traditionally we just have a comedian but, we saw this act at NACA and they were fabulous. Now if only their props would have arrived with them at the airport everything would have been fine. They improvised until the airline finally got things straightened out at around three o'clock. We decided to delay the last band so the jugglers could perform for a longer period of time. The crowd loved them !!! Everything else at the event seemed to go smoothly. This year we had Blimpie, Murphy's, Govinda's, Top Dog, and Funnel Cake as Spring Fling vendors. Everyone did great except Murphy's. They were just a little too pricey for the college crowd. The only things I would like to change for next year would be to have our event on a different day from Earth Day, and more caricature artists since they are so popular.

2 Bands 2 Bucks- Gravletruck and Splinter Friday, April23, 1993 • Concerts Committee • Jordan Ballroom Attendance: 150 Honorarium: 20o/o of $300.00

Mid-Day Expressions- Dr. Joe Baldassare Wednesday, April28, 1993 • Performing Arts Committee • Brava! at noon Attendance: 60+

Honorarium: $75.00 One of our own university professors performed on his classical guitar for the students. People were beginning to look forward to this noon time entertainment.

All the events of this series were enjoyed except for Gary Sandusky, who included a lot of political opinions in his music which was low qualiry and too loud. Next year we will hopefully have enough time to preview performers before they are contracted. Several people expressed interest in performing next year. Many Union employees said it added a lot to the atmosphere during lunch.

Noon Tunes

The "Noon Tunes" series, which is free of charge to the University and Boise community, offers a summer program of cultural and social value showcasing local and regional artists. In its third year, this outdoor concert series outperformed the 1991-1992 season with a23% increase in total attendance. With light rock, countty and classical music, this program is evidence that students, faculty and staff appreciate the social nature this series provides. The program continued on a similar format as used in the past with a weekly Wednesday performance from I 1:45am- 1:00pm on the University Quad. Free ice cream novelties were distributed each week as well. On July 8, members of Student Residential Life staff sponsored a "larger-than-life" Twister game. Thirty children took part in this activity.

The advertising brochure and flyers continued to promote the weekly performers and feature services provided in the Student Union. There were 2,500 brochures produced and distributed. Over 1,000 brochures were mailed to all BSU faculty and staff while the remainder were distributed at campus brochure racks, local businesses, and at the events.

Addams Family". Students were encouraged to "do what they want to do, say what they want to say, and dress the way they want to". The decorations consisted of a grave yard, lamp poles, a coffin, lots of spider webs and spiders, and old furniture. To add atmosphere, the Blanche Evans Models were featured posing as the Addams Family. Marriott provided an assortment of" finger foods" such as Black Beetle Bean Dip and Spider Leg Snack Mix to add to the festivities of the evening. The Outdoor Rental Center again provided recreational opportunity to over fifty students with two whitewater rafting trips on the Main Payette on August 29th and 30th. Various presentations to aid new students in their transition to campus life were held in meeting rooms throughout the Union.

Parent...-Family Weekend

The committee met three times during the summer to review past programs and establish the date for the 1992 weekend. Promotion was coordinated by University Relations. Brochures were mailed to all students' parents age 24 years of age or under. Table tents were distributed in Table Rock Cafe and Maggie's. Student Residential Life distributed promotion in the Residential Halls and coordinated the Barbecue. Facility reservations, room set-up, and campus tours were arranged by Student Union & Activities and the Student Programs Board sponsored the film screening.

Ticket sales for the barbecue and football game remained steady with previous years at 125 and 255, respectively. The Student Programs Board's free family matinee movie had an attendance of six people.

Regional Association of College Unions I n t e r n a t i o n a 1 C o n f e r e n c e (A CU-I)

On October 22-24, 1992, the staff of the Student Union hosted the annual regional conference of the ACU-1. The last time the conference was hosted by Boise State was eleven years earlier in 1981. The 1992 Conference Student Chairperson was Ziddi Msangi, the Student Union & Activities Promotions Supervisor. The Conference Co-Coordinators were Brian Bergquist and Maureen Sigler, Assistant Director of the Union/Conference Services Coordinator and Assistant Director of Student Activities respectively. Marriott University Dining Services was a major sponsor of the conference and the University Bookstore also provided many items which added the polish to a fine conference.

The conference theme "Inquiring Minds Want to Know"- a parody of tabloids- provided ample opportunities for promotion as well substance. Three tabloids were produced as unusually creative promotional pieces for the conference. In addition, personalized letters, post cards, customized Post-It Notes, stickers, and phone calls were utilized to entice approximately 240 students, student union and student activities professionals as conference delegates. This was approximately twice as many partici­pants than the typical attendance figures for conferences held on the eastern side of the region!

While the promotional pieces caught the attention of many, the substance of the conference program sustained their interest. The featured speaker and guest of the conference was the newly hired Executive Director of the international association, Dr. Scott Rickard. To complement the tabloid theme, an Ethics Track was offered. Dr. Dave Tansey with the Josephson Institute for the Advancement of Ethics, was a featured speaker and a facilitator for the three subsequentworkshops in the Ethics Track. Other featured speakers were John Roberts who facilitated the opening session on "The Role of the College Union" and Tom T rusky, a BSU professor, who presented "Innovations in Censorship." Thirty-seven workshops and two round table sessions were provided during the conference. A program is provided in the appendix.

Another important component of the conference was simply the social activities. Again, variety was the objective and the end result was extremely successful. Entertainment options highlighted Rosalie Sorrels, a feminist folk singer and storyteller; Jack Gladstone, a Native American songwriter; and downtown Boise night life. To round out the entertainment options, the Student Programs Board provided a hypnotist, films, and a Student Union All-Niter. The closing banquet was a smashing success as attendees were encouraged to dress as a favorite tabloid celebrity. An Elvis impersonator entertained the Queen of England, Madonna, Willy Nelson, Whoopie Goldberg, Spike Lee, Sally Jesse Raphael, and dozens of other famous guests! The fun continued into the night with a karaoke dance.

Blood Drives

The Blood Drives are organized by the Red Cross with Circle K International acting as the primary sponsor on campus. The Student Activities Office acts in an advisory capacity in this event. For the first time, the Red Cross brought its self-contained blood drive unit for two "mini" drives. The mini-drives are enclosed in a motor home unit and have a goal of25 units of blood. For the 1992 fall semester, they were held in the East Lobby of the Student Union.

The Spring Blood Drive was held on Tuesday, February 23, 1993 from 11 :OOam to 3:00pm in the Ada Hatch Ballroom. There were 103 pints collected, a 32% increase over the 1992 drive. The goal, however, was 120 pints, so effort still needs to be made in reaching and even surpassing the set goal. In addition to the large spring drive, one mini-drive was held for the spring semester on April26, 1993. The mini­drive met its goal of25 pints.

• The work necessary to organize the mini-drives was often done by the Activities Staff rather than Circle K International members. This issue was addressed in the fall and some improvement was seen.

• Specific guidelines and responsibilities need to be agreed upon before the next blood drive occurs. A contract has been drawn up and sent out to Circle K outlining the responsibilities of both CKI

and Student Activities for the 93-94 blood drives.

Brava! Concert Series

FaU Semester 1992

After a successful first year, the Brava! concert series entered its fall1992 season with greater recognition from both students and members of the community. The program continues to grow in popularity for providing an alcohol and smoke-free entertainment option. While acoustic folk was the dominant genre of music, some a capella and traditional Native-American music added variety to the schedule. Since the Fall of1991 series, Brava! increased 67% in average attendance. The live music presented during the series featured many local musicians seen at downtown establishments plus several entertainers on the regional and national college circuit. Most of the regional and national entertainment are artists affiliated with the National Association of Campus Activities.

The Brava! concert series started the first week following of classes (August 28, 1992) and continued each Friday of the academic year. No concerts were provided during Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring breaks. Publicity entailed monthly ads in the Arbiter, the Idaho Statesman, listings in the After Hours section of the Scene Magazine, press releases which sometimes resulted in articles in Scene Magazine, posters on campus, table tents, a schedule in the Education Building, and on-site signs.

The concert series continued through the spring with attendance figures growing each week. When planning the series, a conscious effort was made to seek out performers not exposed to Brava! in the past. Also, special attention was paid to include a balance of male and female performers as well as a variety of music styles. This combined with an unprecedented six regional or national performers for the semester raised the overall quality of the series. Kevin O'Connor, "Folk Trails" OJ at KBSU, commented that BSU is developing," our own little Austin," a reference to the popular folk music show seen on PBS Austin City

Limits. What began as an idea to promote the new Brava! area in the Student Union is surely growing to become a first-class showcase for folk musicians in the Boise area and beyond.

April 9th was the first ever Open Mic night. Eleven local performers, most of them never heard at Brava! before, far exceeded all expectations of the new event by providing quality performances. In addition to being an opportunity to "discover" several potential performers, the Open Mic night was free which enabled more money to be spent on other performers throughout the semester.

The BSU Radio program "Folk Trails" was used whenever possible to interview the performers on concert day. In addition, wallet sized schedules for the series were printed and were a very successful promotion item. A database of all of the demo tapes sent in from agents and musicians was also created to assist in tracking potential performers.

• At the beginning of the fall semester and the end of the spring semester (during daylight savings), when it was light outside as late as 8:30, there seemed to be a negative impact on attendence. "Big names" should be brought in when the venue is darker and when the attendence is higher.

Homecoming 1992 "A Cage'n Carnival -Cage Those Cats"

This year marked the second annual twilight parade and Alive After Five downtown spirit night. Once again record crowds turned out at all of the events, proving that, with much hard work and dedication, Homecoming has the potential of becoming a lasting tradition at Boise State University. Participation increased 170% at the Parade with over thirty organizations getting involved. The Cimmaron Pre-game Festival also had a 100% increase with attendance going from 1 ,000 to 2,000 people.

Student Activities

The "Wet and Wild Beach Towel and Water Balloon Volleyball Tournament" was initiated this year taking the place of the Campus Toilet Bowl. The volleyball tournament was very successful as nine teams tried to claim the championship by volleying water balloons back and forth with beach towels. Radio station Magic 93.1 was at the event doing a live remote.

There were 661 votes cast for the Homecoming King and Queen elections. J effKlaus was named King and Stephanie Seamons was named Queen. Mike Gibson and Robyn Rannels were named Prince and Princess respectively. Eric Grandeen, Rene Hurtado, and Scott Rognlie were selected as Dukes and Donna Selle, Elissa Gyllenberg, and Stephanie Stringer were selected as Duchesses. The court was encouraged to get involved in the events throughout the week and were the models for the Bronco Fashion Show.

• With the huge increases in attendance and participation at Homecoming events, fund raising is going to have to be increased in the future. It would help to begin fund raising in the early part of the summer in order to secure enough money to distribute funds to all of the events.

• Consider all of the other events happening at BSU and in Boise when choosing a week for Homecoming. Other events in the area cause attendance numbers to go down. One event in particular, "Discover BSU." caused many conflicts with reserving space and equipment for programs.

• Other options need to be considered for the end of the parade route as there is no place for the entries to go once the parade ends. This is especially the case for horses and cars without head lights. There needs to be someone available to escort them back to the beginning of the parade or home.

• Determine if the number of bands in the parade will be limited or if there is enough funds to pay every band that participates.

• The Alive After Five event needs a band that appeals to many different people and will attract a large audience. The type of band that is booked has a definite impact on the size of the crowd that turns out for the event.

• Kevin Israel, the Director of Intramurals, would be a good person to get more heavily involved with Homecoming.

Finals Relief Fall 1992

The fall1992 Finals Relief was perhaps the most successful one to date. Promotion for the Fall Finals Relief program was done in the form of table tents, flyers, and signs in the Student Union. The amount of the ever-popular Cram Snacks, distributed by the Student Activities Staff, was increased to provide more food for late night studiers. Two massage therapists and a tarot card reader added to the novelty fun and Santa Claus distributed care packages on the Quad. ASBSU continued to be a cosponsor for this event. This organization generously donated half of the care packages.

Extended Union Hours until 1:00am (Wednesday, December 16- Monday December 12)

Estimated Attendance: 450+ on Wednesday (12/16), Thursday (12/17), Sunday (12/20), and Monday (12/21) 150+ on Friday (12/18) and Saturday (12/19)

Maggie's Cafe was full from about 6:00pm to ll:OOpm on the peak nights. The North and Multicultural Lounges, Quiet Listening Room, and the Student Organization Office Complex were used to capacity as well. There was an understanding among students utilizing the Student Union for study space. The upstairs seemed to be the designated quiet study area while Maggie's was the "less intense" study area.

Massage Therapists at Johnson Dining Room (Thursday 12117 and Monday 12121)ftom 12:00pm to 4:00pm

Estimated Attendance: 24 per day There were two massage therapists who offered fifteen minute massages. Each therapist was able to

accommodate sixteen students per day. Appointments were provided at the Student Activities desk; empty slots were quickly ftlled by walk-ins.

Tarot Card Reader, Activities Lounge (Friday 12117 and Monday 12121)

There was a huge demand for appointments with the tarot card reader. As something different, it was a huge success.

Care Package Give-Away (Thursday 12117 and Monday 12121) .from Noon until stocks lasted.

The supply lasted for about fifteen minutes on both days. A total of250 care packages containing bite size candy bars, hard candy, plastic book markers ("book buddies"), and a coupon featuring Brava! discounts were given out at the Quad each day. This is another Finals Relief program which seems to bring a smile to those who are fortunate enough to receive a package. These services were offered on these particular days as it was determined by virtue of the finals schedule that there would be more students on campus on these particular days.

Finals Relief Spring 1993

The Student Union was once again heavily utilized by students. Table Rock Cafe was opened for studying from 8:00pm-1:OOam which added much needed quiet study space. With the theme "The Great Escape," the focus of this Finals Relief was on having fun and relieving stress. Table tents, flyers, signs, banners, and stickers on the free squirt guns were used for promotion of this event.

Novelty Attractions May 10 through May 12, Student Union Marketing Booths.

Estimated attendance: 90 for specialists, 200+ for other novelty items.

Student Activities

The marketing booths were used for the first time for the masseuse as well as a tarot card reader and handwriting analyst. Also in the marketing booths were "Play Doh sculpting," tinker toys, and a video game from Winners Corporation that was set on free play. Not only did these activities provide a visually appealing and centrally located display in the Union, they were well used by many students. It was fun to see students of all ages take a break from studying to sculpt some Playdough, or build a huge contraption with Tinker Toys. As usual, the masseuse was very popular. The tarot card reader and handwriting analyst were also very well received.

Cram Snacks: May 9 through May I2, 9p.m. to Midnight, throughout the Student Union.

Estimated Attendance: 400+

These snacks were again distributed by the Student Activities Staff. Assorted chip snacks and rice-crispy treats were handed to students throughout the Union while students helped themselves to fresh fruit left out on the Brava! counter. The first round was done at 9:00pm after which two rounds followed, providing food until around 1 0:30pm. Complimentary coffee was also offered after Brava! closed at I O:OOpm.

Free Popsicles and mini-squirt guns on the Quad May II and May I2

Estimated Attendance: 2 50 per day

A more perfect two days could not have been ordered for giving students free popsicles and squirt guns. The popsicles cooled many during the ninety-five degree weather, especially those students who were standing in the hot sun waiting for book refunds at the Bookstore's portable unit. The squirt guns, which hung on colorful ribbon, became a favorite Finals Week fashion accessory. Many students expressed thanks for both of these offerings.

Considerations and Recommendations: • The complimentary food and beverage is by far the most popular service offered by this program.

For the 93-94 school year, the library will be under construction which will increase the number of students in the Union even more than in recent years. This should be taken into consider­ation before the next Finals Relief program.

• The marketing booths should be utilized in the future for Union events during Finals Relief It may be necessary to create a system that identifies whether or not users of services are students or not. Perhaps the photo ID system could be used.

• Because of the high visibility of the masseuse, tarot card reader, and handwriting analyst in the marketing booths, it should not be necessary in the future to have sign-ups for appointments before the actual event. This allows for more students who are not necessarily in the Union on a regular basis to sign up to have a chance to utilize these services.

• Signage about courtesy when using services so that individuals are not monopolizing any one activity such as the video game.

1993 Martin Luther King, Jr. Human Rights Celebration

The Martin Luther King, J r ./Human Rights Celebration is designed to educate people on campus and in the community about the principles of non-violent action and peaceful diversity within America's mixture of cultures. The planning committee includes representation from students, faculty, staff, and community. The 1993 program, scheduled for January 18- 22, featured a wide variety of social and educational activities culminating on Friday, January 22 with a keynote and reception withY olanda King, daughter of the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Academic credit was earned by students participating in the week's events through Sociology, Criminal Justice Administration, Political Science and History Departments. The BSU chapter of the Idaho Music Teachers Association sponsored a "What Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day means to me ... " essay contest between all4-6 grades in the Nampa, Caldwell and Boise grade schools. Over 100 essays were received before the deadline and three students (Mary Bowen, Caldwell; Ryann Liebenthal, Boise; and Donald Woods, Boise) were selected as $50.00 winners. The winning essays were published in The Idaho Statesman.

The Black Student Union along with the Ada County Human Rights Task Force and employees at Hewlett-Packard resurrected the Celebration Dinner, an evening banquet with speakers, singers and poetry readings. Tickets were sold through businesses, community organizations, churches and the BSU Information Desk. The dinner, which followed the opening of the two art gallery exhibits, sold out.

In December, 1991, the planning committee selected Maya Angelou to be featured as the keynote speaker for the 1993 program. The theme, A Legacy of Understanding, was selected because of the legacy being made by Angelou through writings, inspiration, and involvement with the civil rights movement of the 1960's. The committee scrambled when on December 23, 1992, Angelou's agent called and canceled her appearance because of an offer by President-Elect Clinton to attend his inauguration ceremony. The committee, after spending many hours of research time and holding special meetings, contracted with Yolanda King. The keynote and reception were successful with over 1400 people present at the lecture and 350 tickets sold for the reception.

One of the continuing issues faced each year by the committee is financial support. Lisa Sanchez organized a small committee that pursued off campus support through donations and grants. This effort was successful in obtaining a $3000 grant from US West and several leads for the 1994 program. ASBSU senator Fafa Alidjani led a campaign that secured five academic departments and 18 student groups making cash donations.

In April, the 1993 Martin Luther King, J r./Human Rights Celebration was recognized with a Bronze Medal by CASE in the category for outstanding Student Involvement Programs and Projects.

• ASBSU coordinated the rally and march to the State Capitol. • Two art gallery exhibits opened with the first day of the Week. • Increase by 41 o/o over 1992's program in activities offered. • Planning the reception to follow the keynote lecture increased ticket sales at the door.

Considerations • Schedule educational sessions to coorrespond with class schedules. • Select a keynote speaker who wishes to attend classes and meet with campus administrators and

student leaders.

Leadership Quest 1993

Leadership Quest is designed to recognize established and emerging leaders at Boise State Universiry and remains as one the premier leadership education and recognition programs on this campus. This year the program was held on Friday, February 5, 1993, from 8:30am to 4:30pm in the Grace Jordan Grand Ballroom. The sponsors for the year's program included: The BSU Foundation, Student Union & Activities, Associated Students ofBSU, Student Residential Life, Office of the Vice-President for Student Affairs, and Student Programs Board.

It was decided to focus all of the effort and funds into one program and forgo the Leadership Quest II program that was established in 1992. We chose to use two facilitators for the program in an effort to hold participants' attention. Jerry Koch-Gonzales and Phyllis Alexander of the National Coalition Building Institute were highly recommended and chosen as the facilitators. The topics were prejudice reduction, conflict resolution, and cooperation which the facilitators tied into leadership skills and development.

Publicity for Leadership Quest nominations was done in the form ofletters to the executive staff, deans, directors, department chairs, and student organizations. Summary of nominations received and day-of­event attendance is listed below:

1993 172 48.7% 91.4%

The luncheon program remained a major attraction of this program. The attendance after lunch was comparable to past years and more participants remained at the program until the end. There were 195 participants who started the day, 162 students came back after lunch, and 95 students stayed until the end of the program. The guest list included trustees of the Boise State University Foundation and Board Members of the Foundation, members of the Alumni Executive Board, a representative of the Human Rights Commission, and Career Planning and Placement Advisory Board. The University Interim President, Vice-presidents, and Directors were also guests at this luncheon.

For the fourth year, the President's and Director's awards were presented at this luncheon. Rick Overton, the editor of the Arbiter and former ASBSUVice-President, received the President's Award and Jenny Sheets, the Volunteer Services Coordinator and former ASBSU Senator, received the Student Union & Activities Director's Award for 1993.

Considerations • Produce a program that is more participative, experiential, and motivational. • Produce and make available a list of the nominators so that students can see who nominated them.

• Program "tracks" so that participants could chose a specific area in which they want to concentrate.

Leadership Quest Needs Assessment Results

In April, a total of 196 surveys were mailed to the participants of the 1993 Leadership Quest to solicit their needs and interests for future Leadership Quest programs. Seventy-four surveys were returned to the Student Activities Office. Topics receiving the most interest were "Motivating Others," "Effective Communication," "Effective Listening," "Stress Management," "Creative Problem Solving," "Personal Motivation," and "Persuasion & Influence." This feedback will be utilized to solicit proposals for next year's Leadership Quest.

Student Union Anniversary

The Student Union celebrated its fifty-first anniversary on March 3, 1993. Students helped "Celebrate the Tradition" by enjoying free cake and signing up for door prizes throughout the Student Union. Nineteen prizes were given away ranging from a dozen roses to a Sony Walkman. Many also stopped to look at a photo display that had pictures of the Union and the people who comprised it that dated back to the 1940's. Viewers often voiced their surprise that the Union had so much history. Upstairs in the new addition of the Union, Marilyn Hoff-Hansen's bronze 'The Bronco" was unveiled at a reception addressed by Ted Arellano, the Student Union Board of Governors Chair, and Dr. Charles Ruch. The sculpture was commissioned as part of the Student Union's fiftieth anniversary. Flyers, table tents, signs, and posters were used to promote this event.

Volunteer Services Board

The Volunteer Services Board (VSB) is a new service/learning organization which provides students with the opportunity to gain career experience and personal growth through volunteering and assisting with special needs at Boise State University and the surrounding community. The office has been in contact with Idaho State University's Volunteer Coordinator (permanent full-time position) to gather information that might be available to assist BSU's office. This year BSU has become an affiliate of C.O.O.L. (Campus Outreach Opportunity League), Idaho Association of Directors of Volunteer Programs, and Boise Regional Volunteer Director's Association. VSB is currently researching the Campus Compact program, VISTA volunteers, Oxfam America, and other international organizations.

Todd Sholty, ASBSU President, appointed Jennifer Sheets as the Volunteer Coordinator in March 1993. An advisory board made up of Maureen Sigler, representing Student Union and Activities, Todd Sholty, representing ASBSU, Pat Gable, an agency representative from Central District Health, Dan Huff, representing the Social Work Department, and Jennifer Sheets had the first meeting on March 11, 1993. In the few short months since, an office, supplies, computer and software have been donated by the Student Union. Funding for the other office activities has come from the President's Executive office and The College of Social Science Public Affairs, ($2,000 and $1,000, respectively). Todd Sholty proposed a fifty-cent fee increase to be used for volunteer services which unfortunately did not pass. A budget was submitted to ASBSU and the President's office to secure funding for the volunteer program Fiscal Year 1994. Internal Rules for the governance of the office and a budget request have also been produced and are waiting approval.

The promotion for this office has been minimal. Flyers have been sent to all clubs with mailboxes in theActivies Office and, flyers were passed out at the Spring Organizational Fair. Many students expressed that it was too late in the semester to commit themselves to a service project. The large kick-off of promotion will take place in the fall. Robin Denison, J enae Rubelt, Fafa Alidjani and Carrie Miranda have volunteered their time to help work in the Volunteer Office.

Despite minimal funding and promotion, this office sponsored the "Into the Streets" volunteer day in early November of last year. Response and participation in this first-time event was impressive as over 130 volunteers took part in day-long volunteer projects. Some of those projects included working in a soup kitchen, raking Morris Hill Cemetary, playing with chidren at Christian Children's Home, painting at the Ronald McDonald House, distributing posters to local businesses for the Diabetes Association, cleaning up Table Rock, and cleaning at the Good Samaritan Home. Seven hundred dollars ($700) for this event was provided through ASBSU Senate bill #13. On April?, 1993, Idaho Power held a volunteer fair. Dan Huff, a social work professor, and Jennifer Sheets went to promote the new office as another source for agencies to recruit volunteers. They also promoted the BSU Volunteer Fair that will be held in the September of 1993.

The most important aspect of the office is the volunteer placements. With virtually no advertising, over about a two-month period, these are the referrals made as of 5/3/93.

12 total agencies

The Volunteer Services Board is planning a Volunteer Fair (much like the organization fair) to be held in early fall. Thirty agencies have already signed up to participate in this event.

This summer the VSB intends to work on the promotion for the program. A large kick-off is planned for next fall. The VSB is designing a logo and brochure for the office. Poster designs are ready for print as soon as the office has secured funding for next year. In fall semester the Volunteer Services Board will address classes, hold the Volunteer Fair and again offer an "Into The Streets" volunteer day in order to

promote volunteerism at Boise State University.

Scheduling and Conference Services

A general overview of events held in the Student Union indicates that 410 sponsoring organizations were involved in 9,005 events during the 1992-93 school year. This compares to 8,700 events during 1991-92, 5,230 events during 1990-91, and 5,986 events during 1989-90. University department use decreased by more than 200 reservations while student organizations made 553 more reservations than the previous year. The combined areas general percentage of use of the Union increased with 47.2% by University departments and 29.2% by student organizations for a total of76.4o/o.

A few accomplishments for the past year included: • Researched, purchased, and trained staff on new reservations software which is designed to

streamline and consolidate the reservations and catering process. • Maintained a congenial and productive relationship with the Boise Centre on the Grove and

Boise Innkeepers Association through regularly scheduled meetings and accurate planning calendars.

• Integrated an expanding inventory of audio-visual equipment to improve the technological potential of activities scheduled in the Student Union.

• Enhanced academic programs, especially those which fulfill the mission of the university, i.e., the English Competency Exams and Nursing Exams, by providing support for workshops, meetings, and tests.

• Hosted speakers and debates addressing critical and controversial issues which define the college campus as the site of inquiry and discussion.

Some challenges in the coming year are to: • Master the implementation of the new reservations EMS software to realize successful events

and ensure an accurate and timely invoicing process. • Reassess and clarify policies and procedures pursuing a fair and uniform application of these

guidelines. • More clearly articulate the structure of rates and charges for services provided by the Union and

make that information readily available. • Review policies concerning security and liability to upgrade protection of the university, facility,

and user. • Assure compliance with federal ADA guidelines and foster sensitivity to the needs of the

physically-challenged. • Establish stronger working relationships with other campus entities to support unique

opportunities, i.e., 1994 NCAA Track and Field Championships.

Catering and Cash Food Sales

Perceptions of the Student Union continue to be significantly affected by the food service provided under contract by the University Dining Services by Marriott. While the food service contract continues to be administered by the Vice-President for Finance and Administration and coordinated by the Executive Food Service Committee, cash food service sales and catering remain vital components of the Student Union's service to the community.

Union staff continued to work directly at all levels with food service management, sales, service, chefs, and cooking staffs. Marriott continues to generate high activity levels in numbers of events in sales volume throughout the school year. Staffing in the food service areas continue to be very stable. The University has benefited from the management stability of the contract food service. The general level of satisfaction based on University Event Evaluations continues to be very good in Catering. Marriott conducted in­depth focus groups and marketing studies with catering users and non-users. They have generated significant action plans and appear to be addressing major areas of attention. While the satisfaction with food quality has generally been very high, attending to all of the details for consistent service continues to be a challenge.

Cash food service volume was up slightly. The institution made a significant investment in the addition of a Taco Bell format and additional equipment for breakfast express and grill service. Cash food service operations continued to lose money for the contract food service. Marriott reported that cash food service operated at a $79,000 deficit in calendar year 1992. They announced the goal of reducing that deficit to $40,000 in calendar year 1993. The Union and Marriott have attempted to address this jointly through stronger control of operating hours, the addition of the Taco Bell format, and more careful review of sales information. Service hours were cut significantly during summer school of1993 and intersession periods.

The Union agreed to waive rebate or any profit-sharing for approximately thirty intersession and holiday days to reduce the net operating loss while attempting to sustain service to the University community. The Union continued to offer late night food options through Brava! for evening student

and study group use. Marriott marketing data revealed a positive response to the new food service concepts. Customer counts grew slightly in Maggie's Cafe, Brava!, and sales increased as well. Riverview Deli saw a reduction in sales in the past year. Cash food service experienced significant growth in customer counts and expansion of available menu, yet challenges remained in providing profitable operations balanced with desirable service.

Special Events Center

The past year has brought significant changes to the Special Events Center. Theater Arts has moved all of the set building and scenery construction to a new facility on Boise Avenue with the costume shop scheduled to move when the renovation of the new building is complete. This move has been very beneficial for all concerned. Theater Arts has much more space in the new building and scheduling conflicts due to set construction have been eliminated. The AIV department has been able to make use of the vacated scene shop area for storage space. This has allowed most of the equipment which had been stored on stage in the wings to be cleared out. The added room on stage has brought positive remarks from dance groups and other organizations using the Special Events Center. Another change is in store for the Special Events Center as well. This past year the Student Programs Board took a proposal to the Associated Students ofBSU asking for funds to purchase 35mm projection equipment in order to bring a high quality movie viewing experience to the university community. ASBSU agreed and appropriated $21 ,000 towards the purchase of the new equipment. Currently the specifications are being written with the goal of having the equipment in time for the start of the fall semester.

New equipment purchases this year centered around improving the inventory oflighting equipment. The goal is to replace the oldest instruments in the inventory with newer designs which are more efficient and require less maintenance. This should be completed next year. The major renovation projects have been carried over from last year. The most pressing of these is the replacement of the stage floor. Time and the increased utilization of the Special Events Center have combined to leave the stage floor in very poor condition. Other priorities include resolving the issue of the fire curtain and replacing the stage and house dimming systems.

The coming year should be an exciting one. The installation of35mm projection equipment will add a new dimension to the capabilities of the Special Events Center. On the calendar for the spring semester is the regional conference of the American College Theater Festival. This will bring multiple productions to the Spec Center on concurrent nights and should prove to be both a challenging and rewarding experience for all involved.

Audio ..... Visual Department

The new exempt position of Technical Services Manager was filled in early August and the full time supervisor for the AIV department began work in September. All of the members of theAIV staff helped to make the transition a smooth one. Staff turnover in the department has been moderate. Three new members have joined the team and will be available through the summer and the coming school year.

The volume of reservations continued to keep the staff very busy. In particular Friday evenings during the school year usually found at least four AIV Technicians working on a given week. At times, sound equipment was in short supply due to the increased activity of the Student Program Board's concert committee. Several avenues are being explored for ways to better meet the requirements of the performers which are brought to BSU. Present equipment purchases have centered around meeting the AIV needs of the meetings and conferences held in the Student Union. The addition of a portable video projector

80

Union Services~ Operations

to the equipment inventory will give the Student Union greater flexibility in the coming year.

The installation of a building wide RF coaxial network is planned. This will give the Student Union the ability to host video teleconferencing via a direct tie with the Micron Center. Two televisions have been installed in the Recreation Center and two more are planned for Maggie's Cafe. Other major projects include the connection of the Ethernet for use with the new reservations software. This new scheduling software should be a great aid in getting advance notice of events which will require support from the AIV department. The software will also help improve the consistency in billing practices for AIV equipment. The charges for AIV equipment were reviewed and updated with a goal to make this an annual process.

Work has continued on the final installation of the building-wide sound systems. After a full year of use minor changes have been made to adapt the systems to more closely fit the changing needs of the facility. Future equipment purchases in this area will be made to better our ability to interface with the media in high profile situations and to expand our inventory to meet increasing demands for audio equipment.

Maintenance

The maintenance and operations area is responsible for the proper operation of the building and handling repair and minor renovation projects. Items this year included: installation of artwork; replacement of two aging steam coils in the multi-zone ventilation units in the building; the addition of four security lights around the back perimeter of the building; continued maintenance and repair of kitchen equipment; replacement of locks to aid in the security of the Union; replacement of malfunctioning steamers in the Table Rock Cafe serving area; replacement of our old tired 1973 International Pickup with a 1983 Chevrolet Pickup, and the ongoing program of patching and painting for building upkeep. An increased amount of vandalism in the Union created the need for additional patching and repainting. Frank Williams, a temporary painter, worked on an as- needed basis to assist in the work. Frank Redinger, a student worker, also aided in a variety of areas: assisted in painting and patching, minor door hardware repair/ replacement, and installation of kickplates.

The Building Superintendent, Tim Potter, and the Maintenance Craftsman Sr., Jack Pope, were busy this year with some minor remodeling/ renovation projects in the Union. Some of the projects included: the installation of a new water softener to reduce maintenance problems with the kitchen equipment as well as other areas throughout the Building; completion of an office for the Facility Services Manager (the addition of a window and a new door to the area as well as drywall and paint); and the renovation of the Lookout Servery with new ceiling and design features to make it more efficient. One of the most recent projects completed was the expansion of the shop space. Approximately 400 square feet were added to provide increased storage for broken equipment and a larger, more functional work space.

Custodial Department

The Custodial Department continued to be an integral part of the Student Union, responsible for executing all of the meeting room set-ups and housekeeping in the Union building and related facilities. Reorganization of tasks, staff scheduling, developing training objectives and job definitions within the department have been ongoing challenges for the entire staff. Additional training of the part-time student staff has improved their ability to work independently and supplement the full-time staff. Additionally, a change in title of the part-time staff from Custodian to Facility Crew has lent a more positive light to the position as well as a more accurate title of the responsibilities for meeting room sets, maintenance of common areas, and assistance to customers. Finally, the Custodial Department and Facility Crew have developed a working relationship with the Marriott catering and dining room staff which has created a smoother flow of information between the departments and improved customer needs response time.

Information Desk-Ticket Office

The primary function of the area is to provide campus and community information to faculty, students, and visitors. Various services available include the sale of Select-A-Seat tickets, consignment tickets for on and off campus events, Boise Urban Stages (BUS) passes and tokens, and Marriott Munch Money. Postal services are provided through the use of a postal meter, postal rate charts, and a scale for weighing of mail up to five pounds. Stamps are sold through vending machines under the staircase in the main entrance lobby. A Lost and Found for the BSU campus is also provided. Students are employed throughout the year as attendants, working from 15-20 hours per week. Collecting, disseminating, and maintaining up-to-date event information remains both a challenge and a goal for the department. Highlights and future service additions include:

• The sale of theatre discount tickets for the Cineplex Odeon and the Flicks have generated almost $71,000 in sales this year which is an increase of almost 65% over last years sales. These discount tickets are $3.00 each and are available to students, faculty, staff and alumni of BSU.

• The Info Desk overall had sales for the year totaling $125,000. This is an increase of 11 Oo/o over the previous year. Due to the introduction of a new form of Munch Money via Campus I. D., our sales for Munch Money during the year were $41,000, an increase of 470% from the previous year.

• Select-A-Seat ticket sales declined by 25% with sales totaling $175,000. The Prolog program used by the SAS computer has undergone some modifications.

• A new Postal scale which automatically calculates postage for foreign and domestic mail, will be installed by the end of the fiscal year. Packages up to 5 pounds will be accepted.

• A new single stamp dispenser will be installed under the stairway in the main lobby.

Recreation Center

Booming Business

Since the completion of the Union renovation business has been steadily increasing. We far surpassed our revenue forecast for this year. This has proved to be an exciting, challenging and educational experience. With the increase in customers we are facing new challenges. A priority waiting system to give current BSU students priority to billiards and bowling has been implemented. Please see the annual revenue report for details.

Bowling And Billiards

Revenues increased slightly in the bowling area. AMF lane bumpers will be installed on the cap pings to provide bumper bowling for our young guests. This will be a great improvement, both in customer service and staff time savings. Billiard revenues continue to be vety good. The new area for billiard play has definitely helped. We are having our best year ever.

Video And Pinball

Revenues continue to increase. See the revenue report for dollar amounts. We have an excellent vendor, Winner's Corporation which provides many new games and rotates games on a continuing basis. Winner's Corporation kindly donated over $6,000 in free video and pinball play for five high school all­niters and two BSU all-niters.

Outdoor Rental Center

The 1992-93 year marked the eleventh year of operation for the Outdoor Rental Center (ORC). The ORC was created to supply the BSU community including students, staff, faculty, alumni, and their guests, with a variety of outdoor recreational equipment. The equipment available through the ORC facilitates outdoor adventures in the following areas: whitewater rafting, canoeing, roller blading, camping, backpacking, volleyball, softball, snow boarding, cross-country and telemark skiing. This also marked the third year that the Outdoor Rental Center was supervised by Robert Naumann. Goals and accomplishments under his supervision include:

•

• •

•

•

Completion of staff training workshops in nordic, whitewater, and camping equipment maintenance, as well as on the water training in whitewater rafting. Continued maintenance of the Common Adventure Bulletin Boards . Preparation of the logistics for the purchase and rental (including liability release forms) of rollerblades. Donation of free equipment rental to the Big Brothers for an annual river float trip down the Payette. Donation oflifevests for Boise Fire Department use during the Boise River Festival .

The 1992-93 year brought erratic weather conditions to Idaho. Due to the high snowfall, the ski season was longer than it has been in the past two years. The abundance of snow throughout the winter months combined with a record breaking rainfall in the spring caused high water levels which made for an exciting early rafting season. Since the winter months are typically slower at the Outdoor Rental Center than the Spring, Summer, and Fall months, the following promotions were used to stimulate interest during this time:

90

Union Services ..- Op_erations

• Direct mail brochures to existing customers to promote each season. • Flyers to promote the ORC posted on campus bulletin boards. • Table tents in Maggie's and Table Rock Cafe. • Promotional listings in Activities InSight. • Promotional listing in the Outdoor Adventure Program catalog. • Advertisement in the Bronco Stampede program. • Promotional booth in the Fall and Spring Organization Fairs. • Advertisement in the Idaho Statesman during Homecoming.

Program efforts for the year included strong cooperation with the Outsiders in planning rafting trips to Hells Canyon, the lower Owyhee River, and numerous Payette River trips. The ORC also planned rafting trips for New Student Orientation and Residence Hall Association staff training. The ORC also coordinates with the Outsiders in the Adopt-a-Highway program in cleaning up a stretch of highway along the Payette River.

Once again, revenue for the department exceeded the budgeted goals due to the careful attention to equipment maintenance, improved scheduling, more aggressive promotion, and the addition of roller blades to the ORC inventory. Newly added inventory includes:

• Twenty-four pairs of roller blades plus elbow, knee, wrist pads, and helmets

• One AIRE Wildcat Cataraft (with optional paddle or rowing frame)

• Softball equipment

• Two 156 AIRE self-bailing rafts • Wet Suits • Water Filters • Fifteen Boise River boats • Firepans • Two 105 quart coolers
