This term WEEF had a total of $284,267.06 in requested funding. With $60 000 available to allocate, we had some very tough decisions to make.
Funding Council met on November 8th and 9th to listen to over 40 proposal presentations and ask questions. We met one last time on November 10th where we engaged in very thoughtful discussion and decided on allocation amounts for the term. Remember, Funding Council is made up of representatives from each class and is completely composed of students.
The allocations that were decided upon by Funding Council are available in the chart below. These amounts will be finalized once approved by the WEEF Board of Directors this month. We would like to thank everyone who submitted a proposal for your dedication to UW Engineering. We’re sure that this term’s funding will go a very long way and we encourage all groups that received funding to make their purchases promptly so that the WEEF impact will be felt by students as soon as possible.
To see details of the proposals, please visit www.weef.uwaterloo.ca, where the complete Fall 2010 proposal booklet is available. If you have any questions regarding the decisions of Funding Council or the discussion that took place, please feel free to talk to your class WEEF representative or send me an email.
As usual, questions, comments or concerns are welcome at weef@engmail.uwaterloo.ca.
