Senate Budget Committee hears financial pleas
requested. Eighteen other
organizations budgets were
cut, some by more than 50%.
The Committee was working
with a projected $56,100
compared to the $66,300
available during the 1974-75
school year. The decrease in
available funds is due to an
expected decline in enroll
ment.
The Student Activities fund
is financed by a $66 per
student tuition charge.
After each organization
CitiiwbWr N.C. 27410
presented its budget request,
the floor was opened to debate
concerning allocations. The
center of controversy was the
reduction of the 8.A.5.1.8.
budget from a requested
$3,300 to a proposed allocation
of $1,500. The International
Relations Club, WQFS, and
the Guilfordian representa
tives all raised questions
about their abilities to
continue present services if
forced to sustain serious
budget cuts.
