The newly elected officers are President Ken Chiu, Vice President Stephen Benard, Secretary Amy Benton and Treasurer Amy Kaber. Chiu, a local from Rowland Heights, feels that he was very qualified for the position of Fresman Class President because of his experience in high school. He was the freshman class President, sophomore class President, junior class Vice President and the Student Body Presi- denthis senior year ofhigh school. Chiu used red ribbons and big signs to remind the freshman class that he was running. He doesn't like to waste paper, so he collected discarded flyers from around the mailroom and used the back of them to make his announcements. Chiu said the red ribbons worked well because, "they didn't get torn off and they didn't blow away." Chiu is also involved with the Friday Afternoon Volleyball Club, the Culture and Educa tion Committee and the Karate Club, but he's not too busy to talk. "I'm always free and I want to be accessible to any student," Chiu said. "I was elected to represent the views ofthe freshman," Chiu said. 'Tm their representative and if they don't come talk to me, I won't know what they want." Stephen Benard, the newly elected Vice President, was vexy involved in activities outside of high school, such as Youth in Government, which is a statewide mock leadership project. "I thought it would be fun and a good way to meet people," Benard said, "and a chance to do some stuff with the class." Secretary Amy Benton liked to be involved with the Student Council at her high school, so she thought she'd give it a try here too. Benton's campaign slogan was very straightforward. 'Iran areally simple campaign. I didn't want to litter the campus, so I concentrated more on talking with people," added Benton. Treasurer Amy Kaber was very involved in planning large events and fundraisers in her Please see FRESHMAN Pg.6 COR Begins Year with $6000 Surplus By Brian Brown QC News Editor The 1992-93' Council of Representatives treasury was approximately $6000 over budget accordingtothisyear's COR records. Because funds are rolled over to the following years monetary allotment, this years CORwillhavethe$6000 added to this year's budget. Associated Students of Whittier College President Andy McDonald states, "The money doesn't evaporate or get dumped into the general fund...if it is not spent it rolls over into the next semester." The extra money is an example of "good planning" according to McDonald. "It doesn't make economic sense to strive for a zero balance the first semester when several unforseen costs may occur over the summer. For example, sizable down deposits were needed to reserve rooms for events like Luminaries", stated McDonald. The excess funds are also due to "tight money managment" on the part of last year's COR in response to the 1991-92 COR's financial trouble. McDonald states, "After the previous administration and financial situations that resulted, we were and will continue to be on the judicious and conservative side when it comes to student monies." These "financial situations" involved a large deficit left to last years COR by the previous administration. COR President Pro-Tern Rhonda Ross states, "The 1991-92' Council of Representatives had problems staying within their budget. This left last year's COR with a deficit. We only had about half of the budget that they had to work with so we had to be extra restrictive with our funds." Another problem the 1992-93' COR faced was the resignation of Treasuser Chong Nam in the middle of the last semester ofthe 1992- 93' school year. Ross said, "When Chong resigned there was a little bit of confusion on his part and on our part on where each account stood. We tried to tighten the strings because we were very determined to not exceed our funds." COR held a special meeting on Wednesday night to appoint a new treasurer to the post vacated by Nam last year.

In order to be eligible for recognition, all clubs, except societies, must complete an Application For Recognition As An Official Whittier College Organization and submit their Constitution and Statement of Purpose. According to Rodriguez, recognition will follow shortly after all the supporting papers have been filed with his office and then will make clubs eligible for COR funding. According to ASWC President Andy McDonald, the Council of Representative was ready to start distributing funds to all clubs as early as Sept. 29 prior to learning of the re- registration requirement from Rodriguez. "All clubs can come forward and request funds as soon as they have received a stamp of approval (from the Office of Student Life). We will use the same procedures aslastyear and nobly will receive more or less funding based on how long it takes them to get their paperwork done," McDonald said. In addition, club sports, which include hockey, cheerleading, women's lacrosse, rugby, karate and dance will be asked to provide additional Catastrophic Insurance for all their members, unless such a clause exists in their parents' insurance policy (please see box on page 6). Until all the necessary information is provided, the club sports cannot practice, meet as official clubs or represent the school at any level of competition. The additional problem with club sports is the need for extra insurance as only the varsity sports are covered by the College's insurance policy," Rodriguez said. In order to improve and facilitate the functioning of club sports, a Club Sport Council (CSC) has been formed. The Council was proposed last year by Vice President of Business and Finance Harold Hewitt, former Dean of Students Steve Gothold and former Director of Student Activities Ken Kelly. The CSC will consist of: Dean of College Life Susan Allen, Rodriguez, Hewitt, the Athletic Director, an advisor/coach of each team, a student or graduate student work study Associate Director and a COR appointed Please see CLUBS pg. 6
