Members from the PFC started the funding for Ore gon Future Lawyer Association this year. The Black Student Union and Sustainable Business Symposium will experience no change in their budgets. The Ore gon Voice and The Insurgent will experience a small increase in their budgets. The Chinese Stu dent Association and Black Women of Achievement will ex perience a decrease, and Animal Justice will receive no funding next year on the basis that repre sentatives of the group failed to attend the meeting. Members from the PFC have ar gued about funding the Chinese Student Association for its China Night, a cultural night organized by the CSA. After discovering that the group charges partici pants a fee for admissions, Alex Pederson, PFC committee mem ber at-large, said the CSA should not be funded for its cultural night. However, PFC Senator Helen Stocklin-Enright said the student group charges the participants for the extra service they would en joy during the event. She also sug gested this issue be discussed out side the PFC. In addition, members from the PFC have voted not to hear the appeal filed by the International Students Association, but they will hear the appeals from DELTA/GSO and the Hawaii Club, both of which were not rep resented at the budget hearings as scheduled. ISA requested extra funding for the audio/video set-ups and pro gramming and the funding for the International Library. DELTA/GSO and the Hawaii Club were originally allotted no funding because the representa tives from these groups failed to attend the budget hearings. PFC chairwoman Shantell Rice said the PFC is trying to keep a 0 percent benchmark, as recom mended by the Student Senate in fall 1999.
