Students'Association subsidizes the bands they bring in
ock and roll isn't cheap. It's with this in mind that our stu dent council budgets itself $20,000 to enable campus-circuit Racts like 54-40 and Big Sugar to visit our Barn and play us music. The cost to you, the potential attendant of such an event, is subsidized by that $20,000 pot. So don't complain about ticket costs, the SA is on your side. When the Philosopher Kings visited us last March they complained that the price of admission was not worthy of their name or their per formance. Unfortunately for the Kings, our student council continued their practice of cost recovery which enables them to offer big names like Big Sugar enough money to come here while maintaining the lowest cost to you, the student. Here's how it worked when 54-40 was here: Photo by Jonathan Elhard 54-40 received $4,500 for singing songs and an additional $700 for Sheldon Kielbiski and Timothea Gilker Criminal Justice students, check eating and sleeping during their stay.

Multiply 466 by $10 and you will see that the $4660 total is well short of the $6,700 that was required to produce this show. The difference of $2,040 was covered by the aforementioned $20,000 stash of cash that the SA keeps for just y ©If l scores such occasions. The $2,040 difference is not the result of poor plan ning by the SA, as the Barn was sold to near-capacity, but rather a result of the SA's dedication to the fiscal concerns of LCC students. The SA is allotted the money they need by way of student fees and big with donations. Any money remaining at the end of the year is added to the Z£~' budgets of late-semester student activities (i.e. those free giant glasses Q j you tipped back during April's Last Class Bash), or tacked on to next e year's budget.
