The mission of the Financial Appropriations Committee (FAC) is to allocate Senate's funds in the manner which provides the greatest possible benefit to student clubs and organizations across campus and to responsibly steward of the funds with which Senate has been entrusted. 

Club Funding Policies

Clubs and Organizations receive a portion of the Senate's budget every semester. The Financial Appropriation Committee's goal with club funding is to distribute the allotted budget (~$10,000 per semester) to best serve the student body. Requirements and guidelines for clubs receiving funding are as follows:

• Each club must attend the mandatory clubs and orgs meeting. One officer of each club/org is required to attend. Attendance will be taken and a list of emails for each club/org will be made.

• Each club requesting funding will submit a budget based off the budget template by midnight on the third Wednesday of the semester. The template and an example budget are linked below (you'll need to create a copy of the template to fill it out and submit it.)

• Clubs requesting over $350 are required to attend a club funding interview in person on the 3rd Saturday of the semester to provide context, reasoning, and additional clarification to their submitted funding requests. Clubs requesting $350 or less are not required to send a representative, but it is strongly recommended, as funding is not a guarantee since Senate's budget is limited.

• Clubs that do not fundraise or have member dues will not be considered for club funding. 

• The club funding bill will be presented in session on the Thursday following the interviews. 

• All funding decisions are made at the discretion of the Financial Appropriations Committee.
