Both Academic and Non-Academic clubs should be supported equally, as they are equally important.

Support education! Industrial design is an incredibly hard major and as an ID Graduate and former IDSA student member the importance of this group is insurmountable. ID students are incredibly hard working the the major requires spending thousands of dollars. Any and all extra financial support isn't just helpful, it's absolutely necessary.

Support education! Support idsa! The students spend thousands on materials not provided by the school and on top of that join helpful educational clubs that are supposed to jumpstart their careers, not put them even more in debt.

I appreciate the importance of non-academic clubs (though perhaps not paintball and bowling), but the disparity between funding these clubs and academic organizations is shocking. Priorities?

This is an academic club. Please make the right decision and support IDSA.

Academics should come before Non-Academic clubs, definitely. It is proven that students that participate in academic extracurriculars perform better than students that don't. By not funding the academic clubs 100% the school is showing their students who is worth their funding...and that is unacceptable.

Disparity to that degree is shameful in a higher educational setting

My career in design would be fundimentally different, if it weren't for my ability to take part in the Midwest district conference and other IDSA networking events.

I agree that academic organizations should have more support to strengthen students' experiences and connections through increasing the fund. It does not make sense that recreational purposed activities get more funding that had nothing to do with academics. First, academic organizations should get majority of the funday to show that Stout is putting effort in helping students' learning experiences outside classes.
