In a unanimous decision, Executive Council voted 7-0-0 to grant Team 31 an additional $15,000 for talent towards fall WILD. At last year's General Budget meetings, many students felt that more money should be given towards WILD, since it is one of the most anticipated traditions on our campus each semester, and directly benefits a large portion of the student population. We followed their sentiments and granted Team 31 the additional money, which we hope will help make this coming WILD a very memorable one.
