Only hours after the initial revelation, students had dubbed the mishap Shakergate. The controversy surrounded the use of student activity fees for shakers which are given out at each University football game. These senators claimed the amount was too large to be spending for lust shakers. But the accusations didn't stop there. In the ensuing Senate Budget Committee meetings, these senators continued to reveal their incriminating evidence to both the Senate committee and the students, who they said deserved to know.
