...after months of tumult, the Council decided in June to decrease its size and membership by a third, eliminating the Campus Life Committee (CLC) and retaining its two historically successful branches: the Student Advocacy Committee (SAC) and the Finance Committee (FiCom). Two, rather than three, elected representatives per house means a more selective and passionate membership is serving the 25th Undergraduate Council—Mather House even held a debate for its leading candidates. And, probably most importantly, with approximately $30,000 freed from CLC expenditures that the Council will no longer provide, FiCom will theoretically be able to increase...
...second annual attempt to help them make sense of the mad dash that is the UC elections. The UC has two primary functions: divvying up money for student groups and lobbying the administration for improvements in student life. To do this, the UC has two committees: the Finance Committee (FiCom) and the Student Affairs Committee (SAC). Each house or “yard” (as the four subdivisions of the freshman class are known) elects two representatives, and the top vote-getter gets their choice of committee. Those of you who remember the UC’s attempts...
...Undergraduate Council (UC) spent three-and-a-half hours debating and amending the semester’s final grants package during last night’s four-and-a-half hour long UC meeting.

Several student groups, including the International Relations Council, Franklin Afterschool Enrichment (FASE) program, and the Harvard College Democrats also presented...

The UC’s current policy is to grant funding to student groups that comply with the council’s anti-discrimination guidelines. According to Finance Committee (FiCom) Chair Lori M. Adelman ’08, “the College has a lower threshold for discrimination than the UC’s policy does.” Greenfield said the legislation and an accompanying proposal amending the council’s discrimination policy were passed...
...seems to be shared by UC President John S. Haddock ’07 and Vice-President Annie R. Riley ’07. Last week, the UC began discussing possibilities for organizational restructuring of its three main committees—the Campus Life Committee (CLC), the Finance Committee (FiCom), and the Students Affairs Committee (SAC). It is important that the much needed restructuring of the UC begin as soon as possible. With the pending formation of an independent social programming board, the CLC will have no clear mission. The UC should dissolve the CLC and move...
