Student Life Fee

POLICY #: FA 87-02

DATE OF BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVAL: September 17, 1987

RESOLUTION #: 87-02, 09-16, 18-22

POLICY STATEMENT:  It is the policy of the Board of Trustees that the Student Life Fee will be set by the board with recommendations from the Faculty Student Association board and Student Senate.  This fee will be collected from every student upon registration.  Budget development and recommendations for expenditures of these fees will rest with the Student Senate.  Administration of these funds will be the responsibility of the Faculty Student Association Board of Trustees.  Final approval of the Student Life Fee shall rest with the President.  A statement outlining procedures and authorized use of these funds will be kept on file.

BACKGROUND:  This policy statement is based on material passed by the board in 1987 and subsequently provided to the State University Central Administration to apparently address a call for information regarding the college’s procedures in setting the activities fee.  The Policy was amended in 2010 to change all references to “College Fee” in both the title of the policy and in the body of the policy statement to refer to “Activities Fee.”

The policy was amended again in 2019 to update the title of the fee being referenced from ‘Activities Fee’ to ‘Student Life Fee,” which is the current correct title that the College adopted in 2018.

 

Additional reference material on file with the Dean of Students Office.
