This resolution directs the ASUC CASSA Fund Advisory Committee to cease its annual $10,000-$15,000 donation to the Haas Big Ideas contest. This action aims to reallocate these funds to support a broader range of student organizations that rely primarily on ASUC/CASSA funding, thereby promoting greater equity and access to opportunities for groups with limited financial resources. The change takes effect in Fiscal Year 2027, making the $10,000-$15,000 available annually for other student-led initiatives or to replenish commercial revenue reserves.
