• 6520: GSE summer usage of lab space Now option proposal:
• They have paid $3k for use of labs in the past. We're going to ask them to put the balance of $3k into their financial aid funds. $2k security deposit - $600 taken for wear & tear.

• Pro:

• Con:

• ASUC will see that we didn't charge for the lab.

The financial aid program doesn't cover housing or transportation costs for

1. Issue of non-refundablity of security deposit

** Rules of Engagement [see doc]

** Timeline [see doc]

*** How we got here [who is Jenny? Our LEAD Center Advisor, primary point of contact with the university] [who is CLO? ASUC Chief Legal Officer] [who is Jenica? ASUC senator, with whom we've have ~fortnightly meetings] [GSE? Graduate School of Education] [SU? Student Union - an entity with Board members from ASUC and from University, which oversees and manages MLK & Eschelman]

"$600 non-refundable deposit" not what we wanted.

*** What is GSE / ATDP program ATDP is a subsidiary of GSE.

** Information A "non-refundable" security deposit is explicitly illegal under California law. Jenny clarified a university precedent that 30% of a security deposit be taken as "wear & tear."

** Questions

** Opinions - OCF mission to provide free computing services to students, faculy, and staff. - Our efforts to generate revenue so far have: - Only potentially damaged the reputation of the OCF - While providing minimal material benefit to the OCF, completely out of proportion with the risk/damage-already-done - Response: - OCF has done profit generation from elections - [] - Profit was made by private individuals who chose to donate it back to OCF. - $10k /was/ sketchy. Let's take the simple route. - People are trying to compute a correct amount of compensation. $600 is not right...but $3k is not right either. - Not opposed to charging GSE rent, they charge as well. This discussion has fallen through, maybe next year. - Of donation request: We should leave it as a request. - Compensation for our services should be limited to the additional work that we - In favor of dropping this now. - Replace keyboard and mice, seems off. - ASUC + rent next year. Going to be a terrible discussion. Even donation provision in MoU is unhelpful. Should drop the offer to use. - We pay tuition. ATDP money goes elsewhere, maybe profit goes to a salary/bonus. - GSE - Losing face...doesn't matter. Players are leaving - High school students are a big security risk. We've locked out Blue & Gold, at great effort. Paradoxical. - Buying new cheap keyboards. Waste. - <Response. Dara's horror stories with renting out lab to people. - GSE offered to buy keyboard/mice and entrust them to us through the rest of the year. - $600 replaced by keyboard/mice? Yes, but there will still be a security deposit.

OCF does have legitimate long-term concerns about funding through ASUC. We have long-term drive to pass referendum. We should not close the option of charging rent. We are uniquely well situationed to give value back to students.

** Voting (runoff) - Options: 1. $3k 100% [1] 2. No renting entirely [1] 3. keur's proposal $2k-3k, acknowledge pursuit of rent next year, (GSE-provieded keyboard or $600) [19] abstain [0]

• Security deposit amount $2k [6] $3k [10] abstain [3]
