Student Senate and Finance Committee dedicated themselves to a thorough review of funding requests to ensure that final allocations best met the needs of the student body. Student Senate Bill 2017-145 contains Line-Item allocations, and Student Senate Bill 2017-105 contains Block Allocations made to all organizations. Additionally, Student Senate Bill 2017- 145 outlines the required campus fees. While Student Senate was unfortunately unable to allocate funds for every request received, I am confident that the utmost consideration was given to all entities requesting funding. I would like to especially thank the following individuals: Finance Committee Chair Taylor Zabel, Student Senate Treasurer Allyssa Castilleja, and Student Senate Assistant Treasurer Whit Collins for their efforts in preparing and facilitating this budget process; adviser Aaron Quisenberry for his ongoing commitment to the review process and the Student Senate as a whole; and the Finance Committee and Fee Review Subcommittee members for devoting their time to ensure a responsible allocation of funds.
