Pride members will be going to the Residence Hall Association meeting at 7 p.m. Thursday to request financial support in order for them to host a guest speaker Fag Davies.

Davies had made a documentary, “Fag Bug,” exposing the hate crimes in the U.S. against the LGBT community.

According to the RHA constitution, the RHA can only donate one-third of their university affiliated non-residence hall donation fund. The fund currently has $150 budgeted meaning they can only offer $50 to any specific cause.

RHA President Patrick Morrow said RHA will decide whether to fund this endeavor or not.

Ford Hall representatives will also be asking the RHA if they can offer co-ed floors for the 2014 to 2015 school year.

Morrow said the Ford Hall Council is looking to have co-ed floors, following suit with McKinney Hall.

“They are going to asking for RHA’s blessing,” Morrow said.

Applications for RHA executive positions including RHA president, vice president, national-Illinois communications coordinator and treasurer will be available on Thursday. Laura Imbirowicz, the resident director of Lawson Hall, said applications will be available at the meeting. The applications will be due Mar. 14, the last day of Spring Break. The RHA will meet Mar. 20 opening the floor for nominations for each position. The following week, Mar. 27, the RHA will vote on the candidates after speeches from the candidates and discussion.
