the establishment of the District i n 1962, however, due to i n f l a t i o n a r y costs and expansion
of the District technical program offerings, i t is necessary to provide additional funds to
off-set the cost of these expanded programs.

w i t h tho Board at its last meeting.
M r . Stewart asked each Campus Director how the student body and campus staffs
viev.ua this increase in student fees.

Each of the- Campus Directors reported that the
- 9 -
campus student bodies had been p o l l e d concerning their feelings in this matter, and the
students and staffs overwhelmingly were i n favor of increasing the student fees i f additional
funds were needed to continue a h i g h - q u a l i t y educational program, and that the increase
be s u f f i c i e n t l y large so that another increase w o u l d not be needed for 1968-69.
The Forest Park students f e l t that only an increase in fees should be charged the
p a r t - t i m e students, since most p a r t - t i m e students are employed and thus would be more
f i n a n c i a l l y able to finance their e d u c a t i o n .
