The Associated Students of Madison Student Services Finance Committee voted to postpone their decision on the Multi-Cultural Student Coalition's budget of over $200,000 at its meeting Monday.
Monday's debate was a continuation of last Thursday's meeting, where committee members also voted to postpone the decision.
SSFC members made additions to funding for supplies that MCSC members said SSFC had unintentionally cut in their previous meeting last week.
SSFC members also debated major cuts to MCSC's budget for the number of paid staff in the organization.
SSFC representative Carl Fergus said MCSC has five times more paid staff than any other student organization on campus.
""I would like to remind other committee members that the SSFC is meant to provide staff in order to carry out direct services, not provide staff so that … [organizations] can carry out all the events and things they want to do,"" Fergus said.
Committee members also voted not to fund advertising for MCSC's cultural parade, an event they decided not to fund at last Thursay's meeting as well.
The SSFC will make its decision about MCSC at its meeting Thursday, when it will also decide the budget for MEChA, a UW-Madison organization aimed at educating the campus community on Hispanic-related issues.
