Student Assembly

Whereas, the Appropriations Committee voted that the SAFC did err in denying funding to Recreational Tennis for their tennis club memberships by a vote of 8–1−2. The committee felt that since there was ambiguity with respect to the classification of the tennis membership request as either a durable good or a local event, the group should be given the benefit of the doubt. Also, in past years the group had been funded and forcing them to submit more than a dozen request for local events would be clunky and unnecessary;

Be it therefore resolved that, the Assembly adopt the following:

• The SAFC did err in denying funding to Recreational Tennis for their tennis club memberships and the request shall be considered valid for a durable good;

Be it further resolved that, the SAFC shall only allocate money if all other funding criteria not considered by the Appropriations Committee are met, including funding caps or other guidelines issues.

Respectfully Submitted,
