    Dear President Pollack,
     
    It is my pleasure to convey GPSA Resolution 13: Donating GPSA Funds to the University Access Fund in Support of Ongoing Graduate and Professional Student Needs, which donates $2,200 of GPSA internal funds toward the Access Fund in accordance with the GPSA Internal Budget 2020-21.
     
    In the internal budget approved last fall, the GPSA agreed to take $2,200 of funds previously allocated for committees and instead re-appropriated it toward student home technology support. After ascertaining that the university Access Fund would welcome additional donations, we have now allocated this funding toward that purpose. Now, as the hybrid semester has continued to delay our regular programming costs, we continue to seek other ways to use GPSA funds to benefit graduate and professional students.
     
    Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have questions or concerns.
     
    Respectfully Submitted,
     
    David Dunham
    President of the Graduate & Professional Student Assembly
