The Wichita State Student Government Association passed a bill Wednesday asking for the university to reinstate the organization’s oversight over the athletic funding process. All degree-seeking students pay WSU’s student athletic fee.
The bill is in relation to the Kansas Board of Regents Policy Manual, which gives shared governance to the student governments by stating that proposed changes to “fees required of every student as a condition of enrollment, student housing fees, building construction fees, changes in academic fees, and tuition rates” should be submitted to to the respective SGA prior to board approval.
SGA is asking for the athletic fee to be submitted to the senatre for consideration.
