| - | - The US may, at the request of the Appropriations Committee, allocate more than the General Fee allocation for a given year to student groups through the regular appropriations process, with the idea in mind that this “overallocation” shall reduce but not eliminate the net income accruing to the reserve for that year due to money returned from student group accounts. A more specific policy on this type of expenditure may be set by the Appropriations Committee for a given fiscal year.\\ | + | - The US may, at the request of the Appropriations Committee, allocate more than the General Fee allocation for a given year to student groups through the regular appropriations process, with the idea in mind that this “overallocation” shall reduce but not eliminate the net income accruing to the reserve for that year due to money returned from student group accounts. A more specific policy on this type of expenditure may be set by the Appropriations Committee for a given fiscal year.\\ In reviewing either of these types of expenses, the US shall employ a heightened standard of review. These expenses are not meant to be made frivolously or easily, and should require time and deliberation by the US before ultimate passage. In the end, expenditures should only be passed if they can be shown to have a significant impact on the Stanford community, given the amount of money that is spent. All expenditures passed should be shown to be difficult to achieve through any other means of funding, since this policy is meant to authorize expenditures that could not be funded in any other way. |
