Full Budget

What is the mission and purpose of your student group?

The AXE Committee's primary mission is to increase student
awareness of campus traditions (our rivalry with Cal), promote
and support Stanford Athletics, and to keep the AXE safe when it
is in Stanford's possession.

Why are you requesting Special Fees?

Provide funding for our events presented for undergraduate
students and the campus. These include the Big Game Pre-Game, Big
Game Countdown, the costs related to possessing the AXE,
operating the Boom Cannon and Train Whistle at Stanford Athletics
events, producing the Battle Cry for Men's Basketball games, and
hosting a Frisbee Golf Tournament during Spring Quarter.

What are the three largest line item requests in your budget and why?

Technical services (security, lighting & sound) related to
producing the Big Game Pre-Game during Big Game week.

Facilities & Equipment Rental for the Big Game Pre-Game.

Security monitoring for the AXE case in Arrillaga Family Sports
Center.

If you applied for Special Fees last year, is there an increase in the
amount you're seeking this year?  If so, why?

We have decreased our Special Fees budget request from last year.
