The Student Association recently passed its 2007-08 budget, totalling more than $1.2 million, for next year's activities.
The new budget supports over 120 student groups, the campus community bus, and legal services.
Most of the budget work was done during a marathon week: from February 18 through 24.
The budget was hammered out by student members of the Budget and Appropriations Committee, S.A. Comptroller Kevin Scully and S.A. General Manager Vince Gugino.
The group spent over 40 hours listening to student groups and balancing the 1.2 million dollar budget.
The budget still needs to be approved by President Dennis L. Hefner.
