Figures

Changes for Faculty Advisor signatures  Only for applications that are $500 or more AND all travel funding applications Travel funding  $ MAXIMUM per person for travel funding – does not matter if person is in multiple organizations, still gets $250  All members or orgs who receive travel funding HAVE to be on GetConnected as members of the orgs Honorariums  Cannot be awarded to anyone from GMU  Can only be awarded to an individual once by the University and then each time thereafter needs to be managed by a contract Purchase Order requests to Giant  Minimum $25, and any amounts lower must by processed via a reimbursement Pizza/food allocations  $10/pizza for pizza funding requests  All allocations ALWAYS include tip, tax, and delivery fee

Challenges Trying to get RSOs to request funding other than food Having RSOs keep updated with GetConnected rosters, posting their events  Extremely beneficial to have Chad and Amber on the team
