Unit Appealing Decision

The NROTC unit was
appealing the O&P
Committee's original decision
to refuse funding.

NROTC originally had
requested $848 from the
Student Activities Fund to pay
for equipment and office
supplies.

NROTC Representatives
argued that it is a student
organization receiving no funds
from the Navy and therefore is
eligible for funding.

According to an NROTC
spokesman, each member pays
a $10 annual fee which
supplies a large part of its
operating funds. Even so, the
unit needs additional funding,
he said.
