Apportionment Board

Discussions about the Apportionment Board’s own bylaws and line-item transfers in its budget are on the agenda for tonight’s meeting.

AB chair Jillian Ruddy said the board might also discuss the outline of budget presentations that will take place between Feb. 16 and March 2.

Student Government, University Board and Campus Recreation all make budget presentations for the coming year.

If these fee-funded groups need a larger budget, the Apportionment Board must approve the new budget prior to its presentation to the Student Senate, Ruddy said.

During budget approval, the Apportionment Board makes corrections to budget requests to make sure that they are worded correctly and more likely to be approved, she said.

The Apportionment Board will meet at 7 tonight in the Arcola-Tuscola Room of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union.
