The Student Technology Fund (STF) is student-created, student-funded, and student-governed.

Since 2014, STF has pooled student resources to:
     1) Secure free software licensing at scale for all students and, to
     2) Support student tech initiatives, in the form of project grants, benefiting students, grad and undergrad, across all disciplines.

The STF will expire this Spring if it is not renewed at the ballot by grad and undergrad students in the ASUC election April 5-7, 2021.  VOTE HERE.

Students are leading STF's renewal efforts through an independent non-University entity called the STF Referendum Renewal Group (RReG). To date, there is no known opposition group to the STF's renewal.

In March 2021, the ASUC Senate passed resolution 065 endorsing renewal of the STF and placement of the STF renewal referendum on the ballot in the April 2021 elections. The resolution was uncontested on the Senate floor and had sponsorship from nearly half of the Senate. The GA also passed a resolution to have the fee's renewal placed on the ballot with resolution 2102E.  

To learn more about RReG, email ASUC Senator Ellis Spickermann Ellis Spickermann espickermann@asuc.org or GA Vice President of Finance Martin Siron budget-ga@berkeley.edu. Students' titles are listed for identification purposes only.
