The Undergraduate Senate voted unanimously yesterday to give $600 to the SIS Undergraduate Council for its annual SIS International Dinner.
The $600 is less than 1 percent of the current Senate-controlled Student Government fund, according to SG Comptroller Zach Ulrich.
The dinner, which has been held for the past four years, "provides nearly 300 SIS and non-SIS students with a chance to experience truly international cuisine while interacting with prominent SIS faculty scholars," according to the bill, which was sponsored by Class of 2008 Senators Charlie Biscotto and Joseph Colarusso.
The SIS school council received only $100 in the spring budgeting process because it had no president at that time.
SG Vice President Leah Kreimer assured the body that the current president of the council, Kristen Keen, has been active in planning programming for SIS and will use the money responsibly.
