WEEF Funding

• Presentation was last Tuesday, seems to have gone well, we have a good video of it

• WEEF members have been leaking allocation results

  • seems like we $5k which is Option 4 for everything

  • this is very poor for us compared to past years

  • unsure why this happened …

    • possibly a lot of people got defunded because WEEF doesn’t have that much funding to give out

    • we should wait for allocations and avoid speculation on this stuff

• Will wait for final confirmation from the committee
