Motion # 2000.05

Recognition of Student Groups for 2000-01 (Ammendment)

Sponsors:  GSS Student Organizations and Allocations Committee 

Whereas:  The Student Organizations and Allocations Committee has
          determined that the PhD Nursing Student Association 
          has met all the requirements set forth in Article IV of 
          the Graduate Student Senate Bylaws for recognition as a  
          graduate student group.

Let it be resolved that:
  The PhD Nursing Student Association be recognized by the Graduate
  Student Senate in accordance with Article VI of the Graduate
  Student Senate Bylaws and granted all the rights and privileges
  due a recognized graduate student organization.

===========================================

Motion # 2000.06

Funding for PhD Nursing Student Association

Sponsors:  GSS Student Organizations and Allocations Committee 

Whereas:  The PhD Nursing Student Association is a gradate
          student group, recognized by the Graduate Student Senate
          and they have requested two hundred fifty and 0/100
          dollars from the Graduate Student Senate for the 2000-2001 
          academic year to help fund a speaker and activities in
          celebration of Nursing Week.  And that this request
          is recommended for approval by the GSS Student Organizations
          and Allocations Committee.

Let It Be Resolved That:
          The Graduate Student Senate grants $250 (two hundred fifty
          and 0/100 dollars) in funds to the PhD Nursing Student
          Association.
 
===========================================

Motion # 2000.07

Funding for Korean Graduate Student Association 

Sponsors:  GSS Student Organizations and Allocations Committee 

Whereas:  The Korean Graduate Student Association is a graduate
          student group recognized by the Graduate Student Senate.
          And the KGSA has requested two hundred fifty dollars
          to fund their activities, primarily consisting of 
          a summer and winter party.  And the GSS Student Organizations
          and Allocations Committee has recommended that no (zero)
          funds be awarded to the KGSA primarily on that basis
          that they reported a membership of 60 graduate students
          that are suppose to pay a membership fee of twenty five
          dollars each and that the funds raised from membership
          fees alone should be sufficient to fund their planned 
          activities.  That this membership fee is not accurately
          documented or explained in their bylaws is also of concern
          to the Orgs & Allocs committee.  That other sources of
          income including donations from churches and merchants
          cannot be reported even in "ball-park" terms is also of 
          concern to the committee. 
           
Let It Be Resolved That:
          The Graduate Student Senate denies the funding request
          of the Korean Graduate Student Association.
