Senate
On Wednesday, Student Association President Travis Nemmer and Treasurer Justin Neuwirt presented a proposed SA budget for the 2013-14 academic year to the SA Senate.
The proposed budget breaks down the entire $3.7 million budget, including how much is allocated for club, entertainment and office budgets, student stipends and other SA needs.
Neuwirt sent a letter to every SA club informing them of the amount in their budget next year. Each club has an opportunity to appeal the amount by emailing or handing a letter to Neuwirt by 5 p.m. on Friday. The Senate Finance Committee will process the appeals and the committee will present its findings to the Senate at the final Senate meeting on Sunday.
The budget will be adjusted and approved at the meeting.
Assembly
The SA Assembly met briefly on Wednesday night for the last meeting of the semester. Speaker Steven Jackson led the meeting, and it lasted approximately 10 minutes.
Jackson urged the few members in attendance - as many were at the Senate meeting - to join Assembly again next semester under incoming speaker Melissa Kathan, whom Jackson believes will lead the Assembly in an effective and hands-on way.
