The Student Required Fee Advisory Council approved a fee increase recommendation for the Student Health Center and determined two possible plans of action for University Recreation proposed fee increase at a Monday evening meeting.Originally the Health Center proposed a fee request increase of $17, but Student Government President Colorado Robertson said the fee was decreased by one dollar. Under the proposed fee, students will pay a total Health Center fee of $136 per semester beginning in fall 2009. Robertson attributed the fee to the University’s projected growth.”The expected increase in enrollment brought the fee down to $16,” Robertson said.The Health Center fee increase will be submitted to LSU System President John Lombardi.University Recreation director Tamara Jarrett and Eric Monday, interim vice chancellor of Student Life, discussed alternative payoff plans to bring the University Recreation out of its near $1 million debt while leaving the facility with a reserve for the ’09-’10 Fiscal Year.Monday suggested accepting a loan from an auxiliary campus service and then increasing fees by $15 for the summer and $25 beginning in fall 2009. If University Recreation is not able to obtain a loan then Monday suggested a “bare bones” plan.”We’re trying to minimize that fee,” Monday said. The SRFAC decided a fee increase of $16 for the summer and $32 for fall 2009 and spring 2010 will be necessary if University Recreation is unable to get a loan from an auxiliary. This increase would bring the fee to $36 total for the summer and $77 per  semester during the 2009-2010 school year. This increase would account for University Recreation fee and include reserve money.”That would leave [University Recreation’s ending] reserves at $100,000,” Monday said.The fee would be lowered to $30 for the summer and $65 per semester during the next three school years.Monday said he wants to speak with Jerry Baudin, vice chancellor for finance and administrative services, about the University Recreation’s two recommendations for fee increase and taking care of the debt. The SRFAC agreed to wait for Baudin’s recommendation before voting on the increase.—- Contact Sean Griffin at [email protected]
