A BILL
BILL HISTORY

Since 1984 the University of Colorado Student Union has been a fee paying member
of the United States Student Association and has been in full receipt of the
benefits offered by the nationally recognzed student organization. In the summer
of 1986 UCSU hosted the USSA Summer Congress for the second time. Since
UCSU's joining of USSA and due to our active participation in the past four summer
congresses the Student Union has grown immensely in its organizational abilities.
The success of the 1986-87 Tuition Freeze campaign was due in large part to the
hard work of UCSU and the knowledge gathered from various USSA workshops and
conferences. Also, the creation of the Colorado Student Association can be
attributed to USSA contributory efforts and the successes of other s.tatewide
student associations affiliated with USSA.
UCSU's continued participation in USSA will only serve to strengthen our Student
Union. This year the USSA summer congress will be held in Madison, Wisconsin
between August 7 and 12. It would be appropriate to send eight UCSU
representatives. (This is the total number of votes we have in the general
assemblies). However, in order to conserve UCUS funds we plan to send six UCSU
representatives to The Congress. These UCSU representatives will be as follows:
Executive Staff members Angela Martinez and Jessica Fowler, Tri-Executives
Eddie Pacheco and Elizabeth Burpee, one voted upon Executive Council
Representative and one student-at-large to be chosen by notices to student groups
and interviews. These people have been carefully selected due to their
qualifications, current job projects and expressed interest. We hope that the
delegation, as it stands, will be representative of the Student Union's interests.
The above named delegation is in accord with USSA's affirmative action guidelines.
BILL SUMMARY

This Bill shall allocate an amount not to exceed $2057.48 ($1967 .00 + $90.48 GAR)
to send six UCSU representatives to the 1987 summer congress in Madison,
Wisconsin for the purpose of strenghtening UCSU ability to serve the students at
the University of Colorado in Boulder.
