Spring 2012 Budget Approved

In my first IW article of 2012, I will present you with the Spring 2012 Budget. Many cuts had to be made in all areas of the budget to overcome the $11,000 deficit. We are now projected to have a deficit of -$2,956.49. There were three key reasons for decreased budgets:

• Cutlery, plates, and napkins are now available in the Orifice so the costs of these items were removed from the budgets.
• Proposals were made in the EngSoc meeting to raise the ticket price of some events to reduce budgets.
• Reduction in prize money.

In other news, A LOT has been happening in POETS – great movies and shows, resume critiques, and a fabulous BOT. I would also like to use this space to give a shout-out to my Services Commissioner Matt Kerwin who is working hard to bring you a term full of awesome services.
