   Mary Leppert, Campus Clubs Commissioner, expressed concern about granting Notre Dame clubs recognition, funding and a bank account with 1st Source Bank, during the Board of Governance (BOG) meeting Monday.

After discussion, board members agreed that Saint Mary's students need to be a part of a club before it receives funding from BOG.

"We want to make sure Saint Mary's women are represented well in any club we are going to grant funding to," Jensen said.

This semester there are 48 recognized Saint Mary's clubs, two unrecognized ones and four on probation, according to BOG.
