Rob Kampia and Beth Schneck said five of the six programs on their platform will not cost anything.
"We will never ask for money unless it's a necessity," said Kampia (senior-engineering science).
They plan to use organization within USG to get things done that are free, he added.
The ticket plans to follow up on the sexual assault program started by the current administration to make it mandatory for freshmen during orientation.
There are counselors who would be willing to donate their time for free, so the program would not cost anything, Kampia said.
"We are experts at knowing the experts who know the facts," said Schneck (junior-English), adding that she and Kampia are not pretending to know what they don't.
Kampia and Schneck also plan to revamp the recycling program to include the basics like paper, glass and plastic.
The ticket has a written proposal that will not cost the University the predicted $13,000. It would include hiring work-study students to do the sorting and using volunteers from student service organizations.
Kampia's platform includes a proposal to equalize the disciplinary policies between alcohol and marijuana violations.
"I don't advocate the use of any drug, including alcohol, but it is not government's job to decide what you can and can't do with your body," Kampia said.
During the fall of his junior year, Kampia was arrested for the possession of marijuana with the intent to deliver. The police found that Kampia was growing marijuana in his apartment.
He served three months in the Centre County Prison.
Kampia agreed to being expelled from the University and was readmitted in spring 1991. He had a 4.0 grade point average at the time of his dismissal.
"The only drugs I do now are caffeine and alcohol," Kampia said, adding that he stopped smoking marijuana after his jail term.
He discussed his involvement with the law during the first debate.
The only part of their platform that will cost money is hiring a gynecologist at Ritenour, Kampia said.
Although University Health Services is currently conducting a search for a new women's health physician, Kampia and Schneck said the University needs to make women's health and University Health Services in general a higher priority.
Kampia and Schneck have spotlighted their activist backgrounds throughout the campaign.
"I don't like to label, but I think we are activist," Schneck said.
Kampia is currently president of the Penn State National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws and is a former columnist for The Daily Collegian. Schneck is a volunteer at the Women's Resource Center, 140 Nittany Ave., and a literacy tutor.
