Full Budget

What is the mission and purpose of your student group?

We're progressive in the broadest sense of the word: we believe
in progress. We think that humans can identify and solve problems
to better their collective condition. We?re serious about not
enforcing an ideological perspective.  As policymakers,
journalists and pundits, elected officials, organizers,
entrepreurs, academics, intellectuals, technocrats, capitalists,
and visionaries of every stripe, the people on this campus are
going to be running the world someday. Until then, there?s the
Progressive. This magazine is about what we as Stanford students
think of the outside world: how we understand it, how we want it
to be, and how we hope to get it there.

Why are you requesting Special Fees?

We are requesting Special Fees to better provide the Stanford
community with a forum to debate both political and social issues
here on campus and throughout the world.

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

Printing costs to publish the magazine.  Computer software to
layout the magazine.  Distribution bins to make the magazine more
readily available to the Stanford community.
