At its weekly Wednesday evening meeting in Mills Hall, Bowdoin Student Government (BSG) approved the Treasury Funding Commission’s (TFC) new club funding guidelines, continued planning their upcoming “Cold at Coe” event and discussed supporting students in need of storage units for the summer.

BSG Chair of the Treasury Chase Lenk ’26 presented amendments to clarify budgeting for potlucks, tickets for off-campus art events and banquets. Lenk also proposed limiting funding for catered events based on expected attendance.

In the guidelines for general event food, Lenk proposed a tiered hierarchy with higher attendance events receiving greater funding allocation. For example, Tier 1 grants up to $100 for events with an expected attendance of 15 to 25 people, while Tier 3 grants $300 for events with 40 to 60 people, including campuswide events. Larger funding requests are at the TFC’s discretion.

The BSG voted to approve these guidelines.

In the meeting, BSG also discussed its upcoming “Cold at Coe” event taking place next Friday. Snow will be cleared from Coe Quad to make room for several food trucks and activities, with BSG giving away 100 free mugs. This will include providing s’mores in coordination with the Bowdoin Outing Club and hot chocolate offered by Dining Services. Two food trucks, Tacos del Seoul and Bizibuns, will offer food on a first-come basis.

Chair of Student Affairs Aidan Aybar ’28 said he is exploring options to support students who require commercial storage at the end of the spring semester. The discussion included increasing access to storage and pairing students who can share storage units.

“We’re going to start moving forward on … helping people get their stuff to storage, potentially facilitating discounts with the storage facility for stuff for the summer and also talking to the Mail Center to see if we might be able to work out any discounts for students buying materials to put their stuff into storage,” Aybar said.
