Although candidates for Undergraduate Student Government president and vice president are wrapped up in University issues, they also want to tackle several items in town.

Candidate Rob Kampia and running mate Beth Schneck said a major concern for their ticket is the ordinance limiting the occupancy of unrelated tenants in single-family homes from five to three people.

"It is unconstitutional and totally unreasonable. (The ordinance) is clearly discriminating against not only students but against all young people," he said, adding that 30-and 40-year-old people do not live in single-family homes as much as younger people.

Kampia also wants to reduce the 2 to 6 a.m. parking restriction on borough streets to only one day per week. The borough restricts parking during those hours to clean the streets.

Candidate Jim Ryerson and running mate Candice Anderson are concerned with sexual discrimination in housing and discrimination based on educational status, particularly toward undergraduates.

"Some places are for graduate students only," Ryerson said.

Occupancy restrictions and Loop fares are other areas Ryerson said his ticket would work to improve.

He pointed to the Loop as an example of poor planning between the University and the borough, as Loop fares fluctuate based on University/borough relations.

Improving the image of students to permanent borough residents is a priority for candidate Rich Schaffer and running mate Chris Groton.

Schaffer said he plans to invite borough residents into the fraternities to meet students and experience Greek life.

Schaffer also stressed housing as a major concern, especially regarding occupancy limits.

Students and the borough must agree on price, Schaffer said.

"Affordability is such a problem in single-family homes for less than three people that students simply will stop renting from them eventually," Schaffer said.
