Alternatively, if y'all still decide to not allocate stipends, there should be some kind of request form where MAVA scholars places their request anytime they need something but I don't deem that a best option.

With regards to the food issues, we can have West African caterers (since we're all from the west) or something because the meal plan is not so bad except for the menu and quality I'd say. ]]> 2021-03-02 15:28:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ebabalola/Bookmarks/wish/1258902103 Solution https://padlet.com/ebabalola/Bookmarks/wish/1258903840
  •  you give us $120 monthly for the rest of our studies will help suit satiation out because that  will help addressing the issues 
  • If you guys allowed us to opt out of residence during our second year consider calculating  the daily and yearly.
  • Currently living at the resident during the covid-19 without campus Job, having support through funds can helps suit challenges we are faced with.
