No new funding bills were proposed at the ASUI Senate meeting on April 15, marking a pause in club funding as the semester comes to a close.
The senators shared updates on ongoing projects after which the meeting moved quickly to adjournment. No audience members spoke to the senators.
The 2025-26 academic year marked a milestone in ASUI policy, making the club funding process much more transparent than it had been in previous years by turning each request into a bill which was voted on by the senate floor. Previously, club funding was handled internally with no explanation or policy for the amount awarded.
“ASUI has provided a lot of financial opportunities to clubs and organizations and are reevaluating how much we have to offer the rest of the semester,” said ASUI Vice President Bryant Sitts.
The meeting lasted only 12 minutes, which has not happened since the beginning of the academic year.
Elections for ASUI will take place in the last of their 3 remaining sessions, where the new president, vice president and senators will be sworn in
ASUI’s three final sessions can be attended on Wednesdays at 7 p.m. in the Clearwater Room in the ISUB.
