We, the students of University Housing, wanted to express our regret that our request for funding to attend MBLGTACC was denied. We understand the position of University Housing, but due to the difficultly we have in trying to find funding for this much needed trip as well as the precedent of having Housing send students in the past, we were hoping to arrange a compromise. We believe we may have found alternative means to cover some of the expenses for travel, but we would need Housing to cover the registration fee for the students who attend. We wanted to make sure housing understood how important this event is to their students, especially since we are working under such difficult time constraints. The following is a list of students living within the Housing who wish to express an interest in making sure that our residents were represented at the conference.
