ASUA gives $1,200 to self for conference

The Associated Students of the University of Arizona voted 7-3 at last night's senate meeting to fund the $1,212 to send four senators to a leadership conference.

It will cost $303 per senator to attend the Rockie Leadership Conference in Denver.

Sen. Jami Reinsch, a media arts sophomore was in support of the funding.

"It's a reward for the senators working hard," Reinsch said.

Sen. Matt Boepple, a political science sophomore, thought funds could be used better elsewhere.

"We should be using the money as best we can to help students," Boepple said.

One student who attended the meeting voiced concern over the senate's decision.

"You're wasting money and you're wasting time," said Peter Reifsteck, a political science junior. "You should be doing things for us."
