Becoming a Student Group

We've been talking a little bit about the possible benefit of becoming a student group. What would this mean for us?

-A source of funding, as student groups get some money

-Recognition, as we would no longer be just a "class project"

-Sustainability, as we could continue to bring this project to life next semester

The steps for becoming a student group are here. Basically, we would need to create a membership roster, obtain a faculty member to be our advisor (Prof. Horn!) and present our idea. This seems pretty straightforward.

The question that remains is how much money we would actually get... $40 is not going to help much. The website lacks information regarding the financial support (or lack thereof) that student groups actually get.
