By Grace wong Daily Trojan A new budget was approved during Tuesday night’s Undergraduate Student Government Senate meeting, giving $30,000 to USC’s USG. The funds were provided by USC Student Affairs. USG received the money two weeks ago, but the Allocations Committee met four times to discuss the changes that would be made to the budget. The new budget passed by a vote of 11-0 Tuesday, with one mem-ber abstaining. The branch of USG that received the most money was the Discretionary Board, which gives money to student organizations to fund events on campus. “The discretionary fund is bigger than some of the other funding boards because it encompasses a wid-er range of possible events so there are more students that can qualify to get funding that way,” USG Senior Director of Communications Elizabeth Trower said. The administrative branch of Program Board received $3,000 to cover basic costs such as paperwork, supplies, posters and shirts. The Performing Arts Committee of Program Board received $7,500, which will possibly go toward another event or bringing in more high-profile talent to perform at USC. “They always have really well-attended events,” USG Speaker Pro Tempore and Greek Senator Mikey Geragos said. “So we thought students would really appreciate the money going there.” Program Board’s Special Events Committee received $1,850, which will go toward improving the events al-ready planned.

The Daily SCene will be hosted by two anchors and will feature a variety of segments geared toward the USC student body. The segments range from interviews with USC professors and special guests, music and movies reviews, ideas for Los Angeles-based activities and coverage of entertainment news. James Creech, a junior majoring in political science and cinema-television production and Trojan Vision’s general manager, said the idea for a daily talk show came from Elizabeth Daley, dean of the USC School of Cinematic Arts, and Don Tillman, executive director of Trojan Vision. “We really wanted to bring a new inspiration in programming to the station,” Creech said. The show will air from 11 a.m. to noon, Monday through Friday, and features two different anchors each day throughout the week. In addition, some programming segments will air on certain days of the week. The Daily SCene will broadcast live from the television kiosk near Tommy Trojan every Wednesday, a first for Trojan Vision. Lipson said she hopes this presence on campus will help publicize The Daily SCene and Trojan Vision as a whole. Trojan Vision had the capacity to launch the new show this semester after receiving record-breaking enrollment numbers — more than 100 people in Practicum in Television Production (CTPR 409). The course, which is required for some film majors, allows students to work directly with Trojan Vision to plan and produce daily programming. “We had a lot of resources in terms of people that wanted to work for Trojan Vision as well as gear and equipment that we wanted to be able to use in a creative new way,” said Elle Lipson, a junior majoring in cinema-television production and the executive producer of The Daily SCene.
