He also said that he is not placing blume on Dr. William Butler, vice president of Student Affairs who was told to make the necessary budget cuts, but he said he’s "not so sure they’re (the Office of Student Affairs) concerned about the students."
Lingswiler also said the students pay for the program to be available in the $12 guidance fee paid at registration.
The budget for thc Study Skills Program is $60,000. which includes the salaries for three counselors, equipment and materials, according to Lingswiler.

“All we have to do is influence ten people Jto remain at UM| and that’s our $60,000 right there."
The Senate agreed in a 16 to 3 vote that thc only way the program will be successful is if it would merge with other programs that enhance student's mental capacities.

The final study skills and speedreading classes to be offered by the University of Miami Guidance Center’s Study Skills Program will begin March 2-1.
Because of proposed budget cuts in Student Affairs, the study skills program will be phased out.
Study skills programs include meetings of groups or individuals which cover note-taking, time management, test-taking, remembering and textbook strategies
Also, the program designs specific study programs for individuals from international students and athletes to honor students.
According to Ken Lingswiler, counselor for the Study Skills Program, the budget for the program is $60,000 a year. This sum includes the salary of three persons, equipment and materials

The University of Miami Parking Authority met with students opposed to the committee's proposal to restrict freshman commuter parking to lots across from thc University Metrorail Station.
The student group at the meeting Wednesday Included Undergraduate Student Body Government Vice President Frank Jimenez and Senator Carolyn Campbell
Campbell outlined three suggestions that she said were alternatives to the Parking Authority's proposal:
•	having a voluntary system whereby students could opt to park at the designated lots for a reduced fee; or
•	making University employees
who work near the designated lots use them, thus leaving other areas free for other commuters; or • some combination of the above two options
Parking Authority Chairman Stewart Barnes doubted the effectiveness of these alternatives, saying that any plan that does not deal directly with the more than 8,900 student commuters will not work.
But Jimenez called the the Parking Authority's proposal "one more negative reflection on the University" because it was "unfairly discriminatory."
Also present at the meeting were Dr. William Butler, vice president for Student Affairs, who voiced his opposition to the proposal, as well as graduate student representatives and several undergraduate students.
