History's a bitch
This is a fairly ill-informed article. So, the "California Alumni Association Scholarship Office" sent an e-mail telling some folks to vote for the Student Life Fee. There's some pointless discussion in the article about spam, but there's simply no way it's an election violation, since the folks sending the e-mail are not running the campaign. Recall that last year, even the folks who helped write the proposition weren't considered proponents.
It's still good to see this in press, so we can see that a lot of the pressure for the referenda is coming from outside the student body.
The e-mail from the scholarship office stated, "While we're not about to get into the business of lobbying for ASUC ballot measures or candidates, but we're passing this message on as a one-time courtesy to our great friends from Student Musical Activities who have been great friends to Alumni Scholarships over the years." How courteous. "We're not about to do A. But we're doing A."
