The third Student Organization Allocations budget of the year was unanimously passed at the meeting. Of the $78,792.50 requested, $16,487.15 was distributed to 21 student organizations. Among the highest allocations were $4,550 to Gold Medal Brigades for a relief trip to Honduras and $1,785 to InterVarsity Christian Fellowship for a three-day leadership conference.

The Senate unanimously passed a recommendation calling for the reinstatement of Pizza Shuttle into the MarquetteCASH program. The restaurant was recently removed from the program for contract violations, including allowing alcohol to be purchased through the student debit program.

Provost Madeline Wake and Senior Vice President Greg Kliebhan were also at the meeting to discuss executive decision-making at Marquette. MUSG President Brock Banks, College of Arts & Sciences senior, asked about the plausibility of greater student representation on the board of trustees.

Kliebhan said such a plan would be unlikely.

"This is not something the board would want," Kliebhan said. "It's not something we're likely to see."
