COR Allocates 54% of Requested Funds to Organizations ■ COR by Anna Neese QC Managing Editor The Council of Representatives' (COR) Budget Commit- teeallocated 54.3% of funds requested to clubs and organiza- - tions at the meeting on Monday, Oct. 5. [See chart, right.] A total of $39,547.50 from a requested total of $72,884 was granted. Many requests were not awarded due to incomplete funding forms. Program Board received the largest sum of money, $17,135, whereas Feminist Majority Leadership Alliance and the Economics Club received no funds. Senior Keith Fisher, COR Treasurer and Chair of the Budget Committee, said, "Many organizations ran into trouble because they failed to register events with the Office of Student Activities. Even though initially denied funds, these clubs are still eligible for funding if they reserve their activity with Student Activities and submit a bill to COR." Only two clubs had their funding tabled, and that was due to the fact that they filled out their forms improperly," senior Student Body President Karl Robinson said. Thirty-six clubs submitted ap plications for funding. Three clubs received 100% of their requested funds: Whittier Independent Music Productions (WIMP), Office of Student Activities and the Multicultural Interns. "I was very pleased with the allocation process this year," Fisher said. "I was fortunate to have an experienced and open-minded budget committee. I believe that the Student Body will be able to recognize the efficiency and fairness of this year's budget approval." "In the past, when we've done this, it's been very frustrating because the clubs don't fill out their forms completely, which prevents them from getting the full amount," Robinson said. "But, this year [Fisher] put together an information session with clubs and went over the qualifications. Because of that, everything was filled out really well so the process was a little bit easier." Nonetheless, the COR meeting lasted for four and a half hours on Monday. The meeting lasted until the budget was completed so the figures could be released by Tuesday. The fees that were allocated by COR are taken from Student Body dues charged to student accounts annually. "Sixty dollars ofthe 100 dol lar student body dues charged to the student accounts goes to COR funding. The other $40 goes to Publication Board, which funds organizations such as the Acropolis and the Quaker Campus" Robinson said. "Funding also comes from rollover from last semester, from any money that was not used by clubs and organizations," Robinson said. "Criteria for receiving funding from COR includes being a recognized organization on campus and to be a club that encompasses students who are full time." Organizations who have neg,.«, ative balances from a previous ' semester are still given consideration for funding, but they receive lower priority, according to Robinson. Funds allocated by COR allow organizations to host events on campus, according to Robinson and Fisher. "COR was able to bring Poet Laureate Robert Pinsky to this ' campus last week," Fisher said. "I believe that the students will benefit greatly from this year's funding. It is our goal to fund events which foster community and will bring the student body closer together through a variety of social, educational, and multicultural programs." m COR BUDGET ALLOCATIONS Organization Requested Approved % Alpha Psi Omega... $1075 $490 45.6% Athenian Society .. $690 $650....
