Use of Money
Authored by: Vek on Tuesday, March 29 2005 @ 03:56 PM CST
All clubs on campus have an equal claim of $50 each, not all of these clubs actually use this money though. Anyone can start a club for pretty much any reason. CCC has just as much right to be a club as you have a right to have any religious or non-religious club. In fact, you could start a club called "Campus Crusade for Atheists", that's completely within your rights.

If you were to take all of that money combined, it still doesn't amount to the money that goes into WPIRG, and the money that goes into WPIRG doesn't get equally shared by different groups, the money all gets funnelled into one-sided political ideals, now some of these ideals are arguably good, but some of them are not. Consider our government was run by NDPs who threw all the money into advocating their political ideals. Well, we have a mini-NDP government running in the upstairs of the SLC. If they cannot equally represent our money, then they shouldn't be touching it in the first place. If you want to argue that anyone can get their money back, then maybe we should have $4.75 going into a liberal group and another $4.75 going into a more conservative-viewed group, then we could call it equal.
