A BILL
BILL SUMMARY
Amends the UCSU By-Laws
BILL HISTORY
Last fiscal year, one student organization acquired 80% of available
funds for its projects from the Arts & Sciences Board. This legislation
proposes to limit the amount of guaranteed monies that any one student
group or organization may receive from a Local School Bo~rd in the interest
of equitablity for all student groups and organizations. By virtue of Article
V. of the UCSU By-Laws:
"A. This Constitution shall be supplemented by the By-Laws of the
UCSU Executive Branch, UCSU Legislative Branch, UCSU
Judicial Branch, and the additional Constitutions and By-Laws of
other UCSU organizations. Each of these shall have the authority
to adopt such By-Laws
B.
Non of the documents shall supercede the provisions of this
Constitution."
By virtue of the UCSU Constitution being surpreme, it seems likely that
the UCSU By-Laws are second in authority only to the UCSU Constitution.
BE IT ENACTED by the Executive Council of the University of Colorado Student
Union, THAT:
SECTION 1:
,•

Article XII, Section D, Sub-Section 1 of the UCSU By-Laws
shall have created new paragraphs b, c, & d which shall read as
follows:
"b.
c.
d.

All Local School guaranteed monies shall conform to UCSU
financial guidelines, particularly with regard to student
group or organization funding.
Use of guaranteed monies shall conform to Federal and
State law, the laws of the Regents, and the limitations set
forth in the UCSU Constitution.
Members of a Local School Board shall abstain from voting
on any issues which concern a student group or organization
of which they are a member or where other conflicts or
interest may exist."
