Printing

Object Code Requested Recommended Final Description
Printing & Publishing External (+) $3,600.00 $3,600.00 $3,600.00

$225 x16 = $3600 $225: the cost of a standard 6-page, black & white issue of readme as ordered from campus printing services at printjob@andrew.cmu.edu x16: enough for 8 issues in the fall, 8 issues in the spring. readme would like to print more often than every other week (about 6 issues with factors Thanksgiving/Spring Break cutting out from production time), but also not every week (about 10 issues). Therefore 8 issues per semester is enough publicity while still a doable amount.

Sub-Total $3,600.00 $3,600.00 $3,600.00

Food

Object Code Requested Recommended Final Description
Refreshments (+) $900.00 $150.00 $150.00

$35 x30 = $900 $35: enough for four regular one-topping pizzas from Papa Johns (including tip for the driver) when the student organization discount no-tax is applied. This is enough for the typical attendance at readme general meetings (8-12 people). x30: enough for 15 weeks in the fall, 15 weeks in the spring. readme meets every Wednesday even when we are not printing that week for a general body meeting to brainstorm material for the publication.
