	Class of 1995 Establishes UROP Projects Scholarship as Class Gift (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		UROP, which recently celebrated its 25th anniversary, is facing a difficult financial situation amid a restructuring of government overhead regulations that took effect last July.
		Assessing the number of UROP projects that will be funded by the gift is difficult since the money must still be raised and the exact details of the fund have not yet been addressed, Swamy said.
		One of the reasons why the UROP scholarship was chosen is it will be easier to maintain than physical structures, such as The Source information booth, gift of the Class of 1994, she said.

	Forum to Address UROP Overhead
		The extra costs must be paid by the professor sponsoring the UROP or by the UROP office, effectively doubling the cost of hiring.

		But, as Wrighton explained, giving more money to UROP is not a realistic solution, because it would mean taking money away from other areas of the academic budget.
