Student group By Ann Farmer Student groups will submit budgets totaling five times the amount of money student government will have to allocate, the SG finance committee chairman predicted Monday. Because of higher admission standards, the elimination of the general studies program and increased tuition and dorm costs, money available to student groups from activities fees may drop five percent, Connor Baker, finance committee chairman, said. "We're expecting about 100 student #/\ nnrvrAWirrtnfnlir CO C ui^aiu^auuiid IU icv;uwi appiUAiiiiaiujr vp^.j million," Baker said. "We'll have between $500,000 and $1 million to distribute." THE FINANCE committee, however, is planning to help student groups get monies they need by requiring representatives to attend a budget workshop and by standardizing the allocation process. The budget workshops, coordinated by the Holderman ? Qurh a ?r?pnHino frpp7/? wrtnlrl Hrivp nwav 1 and invite mediocrity, he said. "Anybody that backward, particularly in higher education."

When the allocations are considered, the size of an organization means less than the number of students that organization serves, Baker said.
