Senate considers requests for funds
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Student groups are rushing to secure some of the $1.2 million of Student Senate funds early in the semester.
Senate will consider four bills requesting funds for student group activities in committee meetings beginning at 6 p.m. tonight at various rooms in the Kansas Union.
Finance and University Affairs committees will review a bill requesting $9,000 to help finance the KU Student Lecture Series.
Cody Simms, liberal arts and sciences senator, said Student Union Activities hoped to invite former British Prime Minister John Major or former White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry to speak at Allen Fieldhouse in April.
He said that SUA had not secured either speaker and that it also was considering other options.
"We just want to make sure we
have money allocated for the lecture series before Senate runs out of money. Simms said.
Finance and Multicultural Affairs committees will consider a bill to give the International Student Association $475 to finance International Awareness Week April 19 through April 23.
Suzy Davis, ISA culture coordinator, said many students did not know about international students.
