Student Government to review new debt contracts, funding requests
January 22, 2019
Student Government will discuss granting more than $8,000 in funding for student organizations during its Wednesday meeting, as well review the Motocross Club’s debt contract.
The Peterson Squadron is requesting $1,211.76 to pay for registration for a competitive event in Indiana on Feb. 1. The money would cover transportation and registration for the three teams.
The C-Nettes are asking for $2,527.80 to offset the cost of a conference on June 1 in Alabama, as well as pay for uniforms, shoes, registration and transportation. The C-Nettes is a dance team that focuses on team endurance, sisterhood and body positivity.
The Pride Alliance is requesting $1,511 to hold a Pride Prom. The Pride Alliance is a student organization whose mission is to provide a safe space where students and guests can discuss and learn about the LGBTQIA+ community. The funding would help offset the cost of advertising and food for the event.
The Iranian Students’ and Scholars’ Association (ISSA) is asking $3,050 to put on an event to help Iowa State students celebrate the Persian New Year on March 22. ISSA is looking to to decrease the cost of food, venue and flowers for the 300 projected guests.
The Motocross Club’s previous debt contract was not affordable for the club and was not approved by their adviser, so the Senate will be discussing a new contract with a smaller principle loan.
