Treasurer stresses that groups know financing process
Senate workshop explains how to get money
Each student at KU is assessed $28 every semester to finance student activities, and student organizations need to know how to obtain financing, said Carl Damon, student body treasurer.
At the Student Senate Treasurer Workshop on Saturday in the Kansas Union, Damon told representatives how to request money from Senate.
By Jennifer Schultz Kansan staff writer
Every spring. Senate conducts budget hearings. A student organization has to submit a form of its proposed budget along with a description of its history, he said.
Damon said the budget hearing board, which comprises members of the Student Senate Executive Committee and the finance committee, listened to the presentations and decided how to allocate the money.
"We are trying to find something that will benefit the entire University," he said. "We try to avoid financing groups that only serve a small number of people and seem exclusive."
Once the board comes up with the final budget draft, it is submitted to Senate for approval. he said.
He said that for excessive requests, the board set some guidelines and then made cuts across the board.
Damon said that the other
approach to requesting money from Senate was through supplemental financing.
He said that in some cases supplemental financing was more beneficial because the organizations could not move now instead of waiting until spring.
To receive supplemental financing, organization representatives need to have a senator help them draft a bill, he said.
The bill is submitted to the finance committee for review. If it passes, it is sent to Senate for approval before the money is allocated, he said.
David Hardy, assistant director of the Organizations and Activities Center, and Dennis Green, student coordinator, also spoke during the workshop.
Damon said it was important for the organization to speak to him after it received money because the money belonged to the state.
Damon said $40,900 was allocated to student organizations last year.
Jeff Sheue, treasurer for Gay and Lesbian Services of Kansas, said he came to the meeting to find out general financing procedures.
"I读 it all secondhand from last year's treasurer," he said. "It was kind of ambiguous."
Damon said similar workshops started three years ago.
Senate received between $80,000 and $120,000 in requests.
Hardy reminded attending group representatives that they needed to register with the center before they applied for Senate financing.
"It helps students understand what's going on," he said.
