The Student Activities Finance Board found For Members Only and College Feminists guilty of financial misconduct. According to SAFB, all events, programs and publications funded by the board have to take place or be distributed before and during the reading period. FMO's publication, Blackboard, and College Feminists' publication, Juice, were distributed after the reading period. Blackboard was released during finals last quarter, and Juice was released this quarter.
As a result of the financial misconduct, SAFB have released a set of guidelines for both of the publications, including automatic removal of Blackboard's spring funding if the winter issue is released past the reading period. College Feminists is not subjected to the same recommendation because it does not have a spring issue.
"Them not appealing shows they understand and agree with the recommendations," Financial Vice President Aneesa Arshad, a SESP junior.
This is the first time College Feminists has been investigated for financial misconducts, according to Arshad. FMO, however, has have had other financial misconducts in the past.
