Updates to the Committee
There will be a meeting today to discuss the ESC 477 developed safety plan. The next step will be for Dean Maliekal to present the request for the course to be offered. From there, the Provost will discuss with Cabinet to determine if they would like to move forward with offering the course.
Cabinet’s decision will determine next steps.
Discussion and Planning
2023 Fee Based Budget Presentation Call Letter
- Members reviewed the updated letter. Any requested edits are to be sent to Dr. Hallenbeck.
- With moving the presentations at JPBC to March 9, the Student Fee Forum will need to be moved to the week prior due to spring break being the following week. There will not be a BSG meeting on March 10. This means rearranging the order to have the Student Fee Forum occur the Friday before the JPBC meeting (March 3). This will need to be coordinated with BSG and the Fee Managers.
2023-24 Course Fee Requests Process and Approval
Members reviewed the developed Mach Form for the course fee requests. The SUNY template will be sent out with the call letter as it is a significant piece that SUNY requires. The call letter will be sent out in January and will include a link to the Mach Form. The only updates members requested to the form is the change the format for the semester to list Fall 2023 instead of the Banner format of 202309. Also, to add the date of approval to ensure it is approved in the correct order.
Pending Fee Proposal
Davida Bloom has reached out to request a student fee for Theatre. Dr. Bloom was invited to submit a proposal and to present at an upcoming meeting. She was not able to attend today and will be made aware that our next meeting is December 2.
BSG Fee
Ms. Irving reported to the committee that BSG is no longer seeking an increase in the fee. Funds will be allocated differently to assist areas that need more funding.
Final June 30, 2022 Fee Account Balances
The final balances for the fee accounts were reviewed. Some balances will be adjusted once the Foundation figures are added. The updated document will be sent out to members.
