Ive been secretary of some UConn clubs. Thats not the way funding works. Theres a vote by students for senators. Senators choose to increase tuition so stuff like jerseys are attanable. My highscool teacher said the same thing. Popular misconception. At least with the satellite campuses. Most of the monye for clubs comes from students tuition directly. Sorta like a gym. everyone puts money in it but only a tiny percentage uses it.

I was fortunate to serve in the student senate at my community college as well as at UConn and funding and the structure of the student governments is different.
