...Last Monday, [Students’ Association] Chief of Staff Linda Shackles made an emergency run to BJ’s and bought them out of pads and tampons, to the tune of nearly $1,200.
As of April 10, $2,767, more than 55 percent of funds, had been used. And $2,600—over 93% of that—have gone toward pads and tampons alone.
Within hours of the initial rollout, baskets, pads, and tampons were missing from bathrooms in Wilson Commons..."
