In his weekly report to the
Senate, Student Body President, Joe Sweeney spoke of
the possibility of using the*
North Central Accrediting Association as an avenue for faculty and students to voice suggestions as to university policies.
Sweeney emphasized that he
had no particular problem in
mind, but that in the event
that one may arise, North
Central being an impartial
party, would be an ideal body
to which problems might be
submitted. He is presently investigating the possibilities of
this course of action.
In other action three delegates and two alternate delegates were elected to attend
the Michigan Association of
Student Government Conference. The conference is scheduled at Western Michigan,
but no definite date has been
set.
Those elected were Gene
Ragland, senate president; Jim
Maybaugh, Men's Union and
Ruth Bowen, panhellenic. Alternates are Jim Hassleback,
treasurer and Kurt Ciske,

Board Raises
Student Fees
$50 Per Year
Central will raise its fees
$50 per year for Michigan residents and $100 for non-residents, according to action taken by the Board of Trustees.
The increase in fees will be
effective September, 1965, according to Dr. N. C. Bovee,
vice-president of business and
finance and treasurer of the
Board.
Beginning next fall, Michigan residents will be paying
$300 per year in fees, and nonresidents will be paying $600.
The increase varies with the
number of semester hours tor
which a student enrolls if the
number of. hours is less than
eleven. The flat increase of
$50 for residents and $100 for
non-residents applies to students enrolled in 11 or more
semester hours of credit.
In making the decision to
raise fees, the Board of Trustees carefully reviewed the total financial needs of the University, the relationship of cost
to students versus cost to the
State treasury, and the rates
charged at other state institutions.
Both Eastern and Northern
Michigan Universities increased their fees to $300 this fall.
In an attempt to offset the
increase in fees, the Board of
Trustees established the minimum wage rate for students
employed by the University,
at a dollar per hour, and made
the commitment that these
rates would be moved up to
$1.10 per hour next year, and
$1.25 the year after. This is
also in keeping with the minimum wage legislation passed
by the legislature this year.
