In Response to Avri's Questions: /Why is a time when we have no funds not the time to start thinking about obtaining some? Perhaps establish a goal and a strategy? And is this solely the FC's decision to make?/ //To answer the second question first. Fund raising is an organizational decision and the NCSG ExCom would have to initiate a "Why, for What, and from Whom" fund raising discussion (ditto for NCUC and NPOC). Also, fund raising is usually by a fund raising committee, of which a treasurer may be a member. As for the first question, the timing is also an organizational decision, again to be initiated by the ExCom.
