SGB reverses decision, gives Students for Life funding

Posted on 11. Dec, 2009 in News

Student Government Board members decided today to reverse their previous decision and give Students for Life funding to attend an anti-abortion march.

The board had previously denied Students for Life, a group that advocates for anti-abortion issues, the $1,515 it requested to attend the March for Life in Washington, D.C. Board member and president-elect Charlie Shull said at the time that the group was "proselytizing" for its cause rather than lobbying.

Shull said in an e-mail today that the board re-raised the request in a planning session it held this eventing and "analyzed proselytizing juxtaposed with the group's purpose, request and allocations policy."
