KU Senate Approves Revised Finance and Audit Budget
The KU Senate approved a revised Finance and Audit budget that merged school councils with organizations. Debate included attempts to lower the student activity fee from 12 to 10 and to discontinue funding student groups, with the motions failing but the merged budget passing after earlier rejections of alternative budgets. The initiative by 12 organizations sought recalls of senators and a new election, but was ruled out as conflicting with the Senate Code.
