The Technology Fee Advisory Committee (TFAC) received sixteen proposals requesting a total of $401,169 in the Fall Call for Proposals. On October 20, TFAC met, using the GDC to examine all requests. The proposals were considered twice. The first time, they were all discussed using the GDC technology in the order that they were received with no formal motions and without regard to budget. The comments from this discussion on each proposal were later sent to its author.
After the disussion, the committee members ranked the proposals individually using a ten-point scale. Next the committee discussed each proposals a second time with formal motions in the order that they were ranked and with attention to budget.
