Vanden Heuvel 302 Dayton Meyer 297 Sharon D' Souza 294 ASA president-elect Jeff Grell and vice-president -elect Mark Ruff. Grell, Ruff sweep elections Lee Erickson staff writer The ASA elections may be over, but for newly-elected president and vice president Jeff Grell and Mark Ruff, the work has just begun. Grell said that his first item of business will be to organize the general council. "The first meeting will be basically explaining to them what our goals are and how we think that it will affect their role as representatives and going through some give-and-take with them and bouncing some ideas off of them," said Grell. Ruff stated that building relationships will be im-portant early on in their administration. "I think in the next few weeks the main thing we are going to do is build relationships both with the people that are on ASA and also with the administration and faculty since Jeff and I are younger and they really don't know who we are," he said. Carol Burcham, newly-elected treasurer, has faith in the Grell/Ruff administration. "I think that Jeff will be good president. He's got the experience behind him. And I think that Mark, being new to ASA will have new ideas to bring in," she said. "Relieved" was the word that Karyl Heckelsmiller used to describe her feeling after the election. "It's been a long campaign," she said. As the new ASA secretary, Heckelsmiller said that she thought that organization is very important to the secretary. "I think I have to take my responsibilities seriously right away, because to get off on the right foot is so important in any administration," she said. Immediate items that the new administration will have to attend to include committee chair appoint-ments, budget hearings, getting student input, and following through on other campaign promises. "Like we've been preaching all along, we want to try to make ASA something that will lead the stu-dent body and speak with one voice to the ad- . ministration and faculty about student concerns," said Grell. Ruff stressed the need for student input. "I hope people would not hesitate to approach us on anything that they would need. We would do all we could. We are both very open," he said. Others that were elected to the spring term of ASA were senior representatives Chris Fedde, Mike Youngquist, Jim Thomas, and Doug Loon; junior representatives Diane Schlueter, Jay Steinke, Angie Wethor, Jean Gilles; and sophomore represen-tatives Erich Steinman, Stacey Vanden Heuvel, Dayton Meyer, and Sharon D'Souza.

The bill was killed by the Joint Appropriations Commit-tee last week, but Represen-tative Debra Anderson, R-Sioux Falls, brought the bill back to life as an amendment to another bill. Senate Bill 295, a bill ap-propriating funds for the State Student Incentive Grant (SSIG) program, received Anderson's amendment calling for $200,000 in grants for students attending one of South Dakota's six independent colleges. The amendment received stiff opposition in the House before prevailing on a 47-22 vote. Representative James Hood, R-Spearfish, moved to lower the amount to $100,000, and Representative Joseph Barnett, R-Aberdeen, offered a compromise amount of $175,000, but House members rejected both proposals on voice votes.

The State Senate acted on the bill the day after returning from their trip to Washington, D.C., with the members voting to send the bill to a conference committee. Senator Thomas Shortbull, D-Pine Ridge moved to ap-prove the bill in its amended form, but the measure fell far short of the necessary two-thirds needed to pass an appropoia-tions bill. The measure received 12 ayes and 21 nays. The bill will now be sent to a conference committee where members of both chambers will try to hammer out an agreeable compromise. The members of the committee will be chosen by the majority leaders of the House and Senate.
