Fee Raise
Approved
By Cabinet
By DAVE JONES
• All-College Cabinet last night
voted 18 to 3 in favor of a 25
cent per semester fee raise for
all students to support the Col
lege's intercollegiate judging
teams and recommended that the
agriculture student activities fee
'be reduced by 75 cents. There was
one absention. The plan must be
approved by the College Board
of Trustees tonight before it can
go into effect.
In other action, cabinet also
unanimously approved a proposed
181-car parking lot that would
be" established in Hort Woods,
along the edge of Beaver Field
between Park avenue and Curtin
road.
Trustee,s Must Approve
The plan, presented by Walter
H. Wiegand, physical plant direc
tor, is the same one released
last January and approved then
by the ArgicultUre Student Coun
cil. This plan must also• be ap
proved by, the trustees. •
Charles Falzone, president of
Engineering Student Council, op
posed the 25 cent fee raise. Fal
zone said the plan is partial to
agriculture students - and 'that the
ten cent fee raise. originally pro
posed by the Agriculture Student
Council, which would give agri
culture students most of the mone
tary burden, is "more realistic."
'Teams Represent Students'
"We are not doing our duty to
the students we represent by im
posing this assessment," Falzone
continued. He said the assessment
will "pave the way to a splurge
of student council assessments."
