The Student Government will vote on funding the Latinx Student Initiative’s “Love Never Dies” event, aimed at celebrating Dia de los Muertos, at their Wednesday meeting.

The Latinx Student Initiative is asking for $917 in funding to help put on their Dia de los Muertos: Love Never Dies Celebration.

The event is held in conjunction with Impacto Latino, the Lambda Theta Alpha sorority and the Lambda Theta Phi fraternity. It will be held on Nov. 3 to bring cultural awareness to the Latinx community at Iowa State and in the Ames community. The funds would be used to decrease the cost of the traditional Latino food being served and the cost of advertising the event.

The Senate also plans to seat Lucy Dougherty, Micheal Ellis, Micheal Hiraldo-Santana and Mandar-Uday Mahajan as at-large members to the Finance Committee, confirm Mathew Keyes, Lake Labodny and Ross Opie to the Election Commission, fix a contradictory finance bylaw and vote on a bill allowing the Civic Engagement Vice Chair to succeed the Chair.

For new business on the agenda there are two new funding requests from the Rodeo Club and Project Jamaica.

The Rodeo Club is requesting $600.49 to assist in covering the costs of renting university vehicles for a rescheduled event in South Dakota on Nov. 1 and Nov. 2.

Project Jamaica, a student organization that chooses 22 non-members to attend a service trip to Jamaica during spring break, is asking for $3,300 to assist in funding the trip. The funds would go towards airfare, lodging, food and supplies during spring break.
