Helps Group Fund Screening of Iraqi Film ............................................................ By Matt Dozier - Staff Writer Tuesday May 11, 2004 Associated Students Finance Board had just one student group request funding at its weekly meeting Monday. Finance Board appropriated $500 to the Student Action Forum on the Middle East at the meeting, bringing its total unallocated budget to $1,031.24 for the remainder of the quarter. It approved a motion to keep A.S. funds that have not been spent by the end of the school year in the board's budget for next year. The board also voted to recommend that Legislative Council approve a bill that would prohibit A.S.-funded groups from buying sweatshop-produced T-shirts or T-shirts made from nonorganic materials. Despite allotting money to the group earlier in the quarter, the board approved $500 of the $1,200 the group had requested for its screening of the film "About Baghdad" - which will be followed by a presentation featuring two of the film's creators. The group said it would use the money to cover the cost of the film. Senior global studies major Ali Kattan-Wright, the group's representative at the meeting, said the film aims to give students a look at the war and the ongoing regime change in Iraq from the perspective of the Iraqi people. He also said the event would have to be cancelled if the group was unable to obtain more funding. ======================================================= ucsbdailynexus.com
