7.1.  Phi Theta Kappa finance application

MOTION: Moved by Rita, seconded by Justin, passed with discussion

Motion to allocate $200 to Phi Theta Kappa, provided that a budget is received within two weeks.

Sherity read application out loud. Justin voiced reservations over granting the application without the asked for budget attached. Sherity went over each topic of the budget question that was not answered to cover areas of concern in the question. Justin agreed that it would not be a problem granting the request provided that PTK provides a finance report. He also brought up that the reason for the request form was that in the past PTK had demanded half of the Student Government funding. Marie noted that the current PTK understands the need to be as self sufficient as much as possible and views the monies provided by SG as a “grant”. Gail added that SG is responsible for managing student Government fees received and distributed them to approved student groups in a way that best serves the entire student body
