Not only is Coffee Talk a bar alternative for students, it also gives the University Board, the main programming group on campus, some competition. If students are excited about Coffee Talk, but not UB events, they may begin questioning why this small group can attract entertainment that students are happy with when a fee-funded group cannot always do so. By other groups offering more entertainment on campus, the UB is being pushed to work even harder to bring quality programming to campus. Kristi Orlet, one of the Coffee Talk organizers, said last year the group got a lot of positive feed- back from students. Now that the Student Senate has made the organizers a recognized student organization, they are able to request money from the senate to help fund some of the entertainment. The money would come from the $42.30 a year that full-time undergraduates pay for the student activity fee. The Student Government receives some of the money from the student activity fee and is able to portion parts of it to student groups, which means Coffee Talk is now eligible for that money.
