Emotions ran high today at the Grad Student Council meeting as the issue of funding was disscussed.  The Grad Student Council, which serves as the grad students voice here at the Arkansas State campus, currently recieves no funding from the administraiton.  The could change, however.  Interim Chancellor Dan Howard is offering them 14% of Student Action fund money and that isn’t sitting well with some members.

“Well, I don’t have a problem supporting if you think something is better than nothing,” says GSC member Mark Randall, “My concern is that is a token, not enough to accomplish anything.”  He says it feels like the administration is “throwing a bone” to shut the GSC up. 

The proposed funding could increase if the Graduate enrollment went up as well as decrease if Graduate enrollment decreases.  Two years ago, the GSC recieved a one-time $10,000 dollar offer from then-Chancellar Robert Potts.  The GSC turned down the offer. 

GSC President Didi McCann says the offer made by Dr. Howard is legit and will be permanate.  “If we accept this funding at this point and time, it will be the Grad Student councils”

The GSC decided to postpone the offical vote on the subject to next weeks meeting.  This will give them time to inform and educate all graduate students on the matter and get their opinions on the issue.
