Definition of Referendum
A referendum is a campus-wide student vote to gather the official opinion of the student body on a specific topic.
When the referendum will take place: April 4-6, 2024
The Student Government Association will be hosting a special vote April 4-6. The student referendum will provide an opportunity for the student body to cast their vote on a proposed athletics fee that would increase the available student service fee allocation of $960,000 by eliminating the current funding from the student service fee to athletics.
The proposed fee will be $10 per credit hour capped at 12 hours. This would be a maximum of $120 per semester per student.
| Credits Enrolled | Maximum Athletic Fee |
| 1 | $10 |
| 2 | $20 |
| 3 | $30 |
| 4 | $40 |
| 5 | $50 |
| 6 | $60 |
| 7 | $70 |
| 8 | $80 |
| 9 | $90 |
| 10 | $100 |
| 11 | $110 |
| 12 | $120 |
Impact:
If passed, the fee increase would impact enrolled students starting fall 2024.
