FOR A BETTER PENN STATE
Parties to Select
Spring Nominees
Trustees OK
25 Cent
Increase
The College Board of Trustees
last night . approved a 25 cent
general student fee increase de
signed to finance the College's
nine - agricultural judging teams.
With the 25 cent increase there
is incorporated a 75 cent drop
in the agriculture activities fee
which relieves the School of Ag
riculture of the burden of finan
cing the 'teams and places it upon
the entire student body.
The fee changes adopted by the
trustees were approved just as
recommended by All - C o 11 e g e
Cabinet.
Cabinet gave final approval to
th e recommendation Thursday
night after the agriculturef'.§til
dent council had. asked All-Col
lege Cabinet to help them defray
the judging expenses.
Th e original recommendation
carried to cabinet by David Stab
ler, agriculture student council
president, called for a general fee
rise• of 10 cents, but under a
proposal initiated by Marilyn Le
vitt, Panhellenic Council presi
dent, cabinet chose to suggest
that. ,the entire cost of. judging
team support be placed upon the
student body as a whole.
Although the agriculture activ
ities fee is reduced by 75 cents,
the fund will still collect 25 cents
from each agriculture student to
finance general agriculture activ
ities.
This fee will still leave the
activities fund with a higher to
tal than under the previous getup
after judging expenses were with
drawn, according to a statement
made by All-College Secretary
Treasurer Thomas Jurchak at a
meeting of the agriculture student
council this week.
The trustees were still in ses
sion when the Daily Collegian
went to press last- night and it
could not be determined what
other action the board had taken.
