<p class="MsoNormal">I’m not sure everyone is aware, but the mandatory fees that are assessed each year for tuition are not subject to approval from HECC. Meaning that these fees can continue to increase each year without approval from the Oregon Legislative
Body.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This was something that caught my attention, and wanted to let everyone know that this type of fee can be increased at will without oversight from outside governing bodies.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Senators - <o:p></o:p></p>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I went to the ASUO townhall last night on their decision to cancel their $1.7M contract with the athletics department, after meeting with some ASUO Senators about it. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">At the town hall the students discussed their decision and the UO administration’s counter proposal. I also learned that Elliot and Spike had signed on as Senate Pres and VP, as sponsors to an ASUO Senate proposal to accept this counter,
which would impose a new mandatory fee on students to the athletic department. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">The ASUO Senate met last night after the townhall, and voted to reject this resolution and the counterproposal. My understanding is that their negotiations with the administration continue. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m writing because i don’t think the Senate leadership should be encouraging ASUO to accept proposals like this, and certainly not without informing us. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
