24-25 Finances

This page contains information, plans, and results of club budget requests and purchases for the 2024-2025 school year.

Funding

VTLUUG is currently eligible for:

• $1,500 from the SBB for the year

We could in the future be eligible for:

• $500 a semester, more with justification
  • if we become a CS Affiliated Org. This is theoretically possibly doable *right now*, during the Fall '24 semester. Theoretically.
• $??? from the SEC
  • if we jump through all the required hoops. these seemingly are:
    • attendance to SEC ~3 meetings a semester
    • >=3 hours of community service via the SEC in a *previous* semester
    • signing up for some stuff

Proposed Purchases

For each of the following, use this format.

• $PRICE <item name> (<person interested in buying it>)
  • reason for proposed purchase
  • link to a store page or quote with the price

• $716 7x14TB SAS Renewed HDDs (rsk)
  • we can use these to turn cyberdelia into a massive NAS, which can then be used to serve public package mirrors (e.g. all ~5TB of Debian mirrors) and provide general storage for members
  • https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0D5SP2487

• $165.75 300 stickers (rsk)
  • assuming we can't print these at The Source, stickers are good to both give out at gobblerfest (advertising!) and haphazardly place on personal computing equipment
