UTFAB/UFFAB: (Tiffany Weiss & Megan Royer)

Currently the board has about $200,000 to use for improvements.

The University Faculty Fee Advisory Board is discussing a bonding project for the University Center for the Arts.

There is talk of Clark renovation & Computer Science building as well.

NOTE: Meetings are Mondays at 4pm

 

COF: (Dr. Blehm)

Notice to all students that there are new policies in place for the College Opportunity Fund distribution.  The Census Date will now change what happens if you add or drop a class after our February 1st add/free drop date.

1) If you add after Feb 1st you will not get COF funds for your credit hours

2) If you drop after Feb 1st you could get billed for the COF funds that were distributed on your behalf, which is currently $80/credit hour.

 

Visit Days: (Dr. Blehm)

High School juniors and seniors will be visiting CSU & CVMBS.  Dr. Blehm is interested in volunteers to partner with him in giving information to the students on the following days: 2/17, 3/24, 4/3, and 4/10.  The typical expectation is that the student would arrive at 905 AM in the Student Center; make a short statement at the end of his presentation on why being a major in MB or EH is a good thing; and then participate in a question and answer period with me.  Two presentations will be done between 9:05 and 10:00 and the format would be the same.  For more information please contact Dr. Blehm prior to February 10th Ken.Blehm@colostate.edu
