[Imc-communication] question regarding UCIMC

[Notts IMC]

Hiya,

I have been following the discussion about the paid UCIMC workers on the
imc-communication email list for a while now. I've just read the following
article:

Urbana Independent Media Center Awarded $30,000 Grant From The Illinois
Arts Council - http://www.ucimc.org/feature/display/148743/index.php

My question is to what degree the Urbana Independent Media Center relies
on funding coming in from outside funders. If funding would be rejected,
could the project carry on with its work? After all, that seems to make it
an INDEPENDENT media centre, meaning you are not dependent on something or
someone to be able to run the project.
