Council member Rohit Chopra ’04 introduced an amendment, which was struck down, along those same lines to require the group to pay the council $250 in exchange for advertising on the council’s e-mail list.
“The general sentiment of the bill is in line with the bigger picture of the UC,” Lee said.
The bill’s sponsor, Jared S. Morgenstern ’03, said he and his partners would set up a website where students could request movies and easily deliverable food from the Pforzheimer House grill.
“The proceeds go to a charitable organization known as me and the people who work for me,” Morgenstern joked in response to a council member’s question about whether the council would benefit financially from the measure.
In other business, the council decided to rent a stage for the Battle of the Bands event, which will be held on April 12 at Lowell House.
