Reducing ASG funding of the music department nearly 25 per cent was considered at Thursd ay' s ASG e xecutive council mee ting. Other key topics discus sed at the meeti ngs inc luded the e stablishment of a new student gove rnment class and prom otion of a De cember concert featuring gr oup leader Dan Hicks. Disappointed · over las t year's spending by the music department, the executive council considered lowe ring ASG financial support of the department from $4500 to $3500. However, it was decided to postpone action until a complete study of the department budge t is m ade. Last year, much of the money allotted to the music department was used t o s ponsor a Chamber Singers tour of California. Citing a total expense of over $6000, ASG president St an Flores termed the trip "a waste of money." F ur ther discussion of the s ituati on is expected at the next executive c ouncil m eet ing , November 30. A new student gove rn ment class for

Six of the nine area community colleges now have this type of program. Nationally known Dan Hicks and his Hot Licks will appear in concert here on December 15. Currently, the ASG, working on publicity for the affair, is contacting area radio s t ations for fre e public service commercials. In other action at the meeting, the executive council decided to delay discussion on a new school year calendar. The plan, already adopted by some California colleges, sets the first day d the fall semester on August 20 with the final day on December 21. The second aemester would begin January 14 and end May 17 . A proposal to sponsor t he printing of poet ry writte n by a Palomar College student was approved. Half of the copies would be available fr ee to Palom a r s tude nts with the othe r s being sold off campus by the poe t.
