Add info about changes to conference funding

[ffrankies]

Fellow CS grad students,

Due to anticipated short-term budget constraints in our department, and since conferences are now in virtual mode due to the pandemic, the upper limit for conference reimbursements has been lowered to $200.

While this is unfortunate, this policy is expected to be revoked once in-person conferences resume. In the meantime, when needed, please consider additional sources of funding and support, such as your advisor, TFP, or the conference itself.

While CS grad council looks further into this situation, please do not hesitate to contact me, another grad council member, or gradcouncil@cs.vt.edu for any questions or concerns.

Live long and prosper! 🖖
