Resolution: #11-05
Author: Brett Newman
Cosponsor: Jeff Waters
To: Student Fee Allocation Committee & Vice President of Student Affairs
Proposal for the restructuring of the student fee allocation committee
THE STUDENT BODY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF GEORGIA THROUGH ITS ELECTED
MEMBERS OF THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION DOES HEREBY
RESOLVE:
Whereas, the students of the University of Georgia have a vested interest in having
democratic control of the student fees of which they pay.
Whereas, the structure of the fees committee does not at this time appoint all the members
through a democratic process where the students could vote on who they want
allocating their fees.
Whereas, other Universities of the same size and enrollment as the University of Georgia in
the southeast have fees committees successfully run by democratic institutions
such as SGA.
SGA(Bill #11-05)
BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
The Student Government Association on behalf of the student body, requests that the
Student Government Association Treasurer will Co-Chair the Student Fee Allocation Committee
with a representative from student affairs.
Before serving of the Student Fee Allocation Committee, all selected students will take a
more extensive and thorough training session on the traditions, organization, structure, history,
and accounting procedures of the Student Fee Allocation Committee.
Only current SGA Senators will be eligible to serve as voting members on the committee
who will be nominated by the President of the Student Government Association and confirmed
by the Senate.
The Vice-President for Student Affairs will have veto-power over the total allocation of
the budget.
