All fee rate proposals were submitted to, and discussed with ASMSU. All proposals were endorsed by ASMSU except for a proposed 11.67% increase in the Athletic Fee. As a result, the proposed increase has been reduced by 50% and the President has directed the Vice President for Student Affairs, and the Director of Athletics, to create a new working relationship between the Athletics Department and the Student Government.
