Business / Financial

Due to problems inherited from last year's bookstore, we are still unable to estimate how much, if any, money the LSS will get from the bookstore this year. For the purposes of the budget we will assume that our losses from last year negate all of our income from this year from the bookstore. This is obviously a worst-case scenario, but we decided to err on the side of caution when budgeting.

Fellow Students,

The following is the fall 2008 funding allocation for clubs and societies.

 As some of you may already know, LSS finances are a little tighter this year due to issues with the management of the bookstore last year. The purpose of this message is not to point fingers and throw mud but instead to dispel any rumours and misinformation which may be circulating and give the students at Ludlow the facts about what happened to their money. We realize this story is not a short one but we believe it is important in the interest of full disclosure to ensure its completeness.

As you may already have noticed, receipts were emailed out today to everyone who purchased books from the bookstore. There is one receipt per student which contains all individual sales you made this semester. If you purchased books and did not receive an email or have any questions you can email Kevin @ secretary [at] unblss [dot] com.
