After having their 2007-08 budget request denied by the De Anza Associated Student Body Senate on Feb. 21, the De Anza College's Math Performance Success program is one step closer to hiring some help.

The senate passed the first of two votes last Wednesday to allocate partial funding of $6,400 to the program.

Herminio Herrando of MPS asked the senate to approve the urgent budget request.

MPS has recently been forced to turn away students from their tutoring program due to the shortage of tutors and higher demand according to Herrando.

Problems with the availability of tutors during finals and replacing veteran tutors were also cited as needs for the funding.
