WEEF Funding Council met on March 2nd. It was a gruelling 3 hours, and we had to make some tough decisions, but the funding allocation for this term is complete. The attached table outlines the decisions that Funding Council made. (Note that funding council is comprised of one rep from every engineering class on campus, its 100% students!)
If you would like to discuss any of the amounts allocated and why the funding council made the decisions they did, I would be more than happy to meet with you or discuss it via email. Please keep in mind that funding council had some very tough decisions to make this term as a total of $244 892.20 was requested, and only $85 000 was available to allocate.
We encourage all recipients of funding to spend their allocations as quickly as possible (while still being prudent) so that an immediate impact can be felt by students today. This is WEEF’s version of economic stimulus ;).
WEEF’s 20 year celebrations will occur on March 22nd in the CPH Foyer, look out for some fun shenanigans! WEEF’s Board of Directors will be meeting soon to finalize the funding decision for this term.
Don’t forget, WEEF is designed to be for students by students – its 100% up to the council of students (reps from each class) to decide where we put the money. WEEF is good =).
