6. Staff recognition requests made for staff or hall government executives will be reviewed only if that hall staff or government maintains at least 3 quality OTM submissions each month during the fall and spring academic semesters. Due to the support NRHH receives from desk staff in fundraising efforts, recognition requests for DA staff is waived of this requirement.
7. Those requesting funding for apparel should request a quote through Underground Printing (an approved UNL vendor) and show their request either matches or is less than the price break received through Underground Printing. UNL has a discount at this company and strong relationship which can help with getting larger discounts comparative to regular pricing.
