Budget (1975)

This year the Graduate Assembly has a budget of $15000, half of what was requested, with which we still hope to fund several projects during the year. A research assistant will study issues involving graduate students, and we will be creating a graduate handbook with information on the departments not normally compiled for graduate students. We will also have some money available for graduate groups or departments to be used for the benefit of students. Applications for the funds can be made though the Graduate Assembly office.

This newspaper will become a regular publication if we can secure additional funding through the Registration Fee Committee in the Fall. With the additional funds we could hire a full time editor and publish a newspaper dealing with graduate student issues and problems. We believe there is a very real need for more communication of concerns common to graduate students on this campus. We are working to bring this about through regular publication of a graduate newspaper.
