Explanations and Reasoning

Section E.

The LETU STING Team competes for LETU and is one of the leading competitors at the safety and flight competition. The last two years they came in third in competition at nationals and this year they came in first in regionals. This bill will allow the team to go back to Oshkosh to compete and will help support them in their effort of representing Letourneau University.

LETU Womens Aviation Society is a growing group looking to become more established as a society on campus. They are requesting these funds to help grow their organization and to help them do more events on campus.
