Clayton Cullaton
Re: Summer School and Scholarship for Students enrolled in programs. During a meeting last week I advocated firmly for the benefit of availing Scholarship money to students enrolled in programs. Administration was quite supportive, but one objection was made (that I’ve heard before) which cautioned that “spending money on students in summer would take money away from students in Fall & Winter.” What’s your take on this sentiment?

Discussion of Spending Proposals

3-6 Months of expenses will be set aside along with a budget buffer.
