THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the SGA is, on principle, against using tuition increases to compensate for demonstrably insufficient state funding.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that $5,934.87 be allocated from the SGA Legislative Reserves to the O.N.E. UMD Conference as the attached line items details.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the SGA Legislature endorse the funding of $537.60 for the cost of two 1/16 of a page ads to be run in The Diamondback on Friday March 6th and Monday March 8th advertising the event and informing students of SGA’s co-sponsorship of this event.

Currently, no non-print materials (in this case DVDs) are available to students for circulation. Upon creation of this program, thousands of DVD’s would be available for circulation by Fall 2010. As part of the program, any DVD would be subject to course reserve by course instructors, as well as available for check-out for the student body. The Hornbake Non-Print Media Department has also agreed to assimilate any duplicate DVD's that they have on file, which number into the hundreds. In addition to the SGA funding, the offices of The University View have agreed to match up to $3000. The Non-Print Media Department has also applied for a library grant that would provide additional funds. Upon allocation of the funds, we would additionally apply for the philanthropy grant offered by the Briggs Alumni Center. Potentially $20,000 would be available to set up the program. Additionally, every title purchased would have a sticker labeled "purchased by SGA", with the organization's logo. There would also be a University View label as well due to their contribution. To decide which titles would be selected, a DVD Program Committee would be formed by the Non-Print Media Department, and would be comprised of the Assistant Director of Non-Print Media Department, student and staff applicants and ideally the SGA Library Liaison and Vice President of Finance.

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the SGA constitutional by-laws be amended to the following:

The Student Media Bill (House Bill 257) extends journalism/news gathering/disseminating students protection from being forcibly compelled to reveal their sources and any information gained through scholarly interviews with their sources. The current law in Maryland does not provide them this protection.
