There is no qualification on that mandate aside from a general principle to refrain from funding food and drink. There is also no requirement that all students be able to access every single SLS-funded activity. There are several problems with this approach. The first is that it would, in effect, cripple the SLS as an activities-based society. Students experience many other barriers to full participation apart from economic constraints.
Economic constraints are an unfortunate barrier to participating in a given activity.
However, they are not the only constraints operating on the choices of law students. Although the objections to the funding were initially couched in these concerns about the availability of this activity to the entire U of T law population, I believe that the true issue here was the quality of the activity in question. My initial reply to this objection would be that it is not within the discretion of the SLS to refuse funding on these grounds. However, assuming this was an option for the SLS executive, I would like to address this idea. I believe that Law Games is as worthy an activity as any other funded by the SLS in that it is a nationally recognized event that U of T students are interested in attending.
