Julie Norman, the Director of the Academic Resource Center (the people who
run the UROP program) actually came to speak at the UA senate meeting last

She directly addressed the issue, stating that there were in fact NO cuts
to the UROP program funding.
UROP will be as financially strong now as it has been in years past.
