Section I

The Charge of SFAC

The Student Fee Advisory Committee (SFAC, the Committee) will recommend to the Chancellor with regard to activities supported by income from the Student Services Fee (SSF) by reviewing SSF supported programs and recommending priorities for funding. The Committee should also recommend to the Chancellor on the level of SSF set annually by the Regents.

The Committee may also submit an analysis and evaluation of the funded programs to aid the Chancellor in the decision making process. Programs which receive SSF are determined by the Regents. Programs include, but are not limited to, areas such as: Arts and Lectures, Child Care Services, Community Service Projects, Counseling and Career Services, Educational Opportunity Programs, Financial Aid, Health Services, Recreational Services, Student Life Programs, and Student.

Although the majority of requests come from the Division of Student Affairs, SFAC is not limited to only funding requests that come from that division. If the request coincides with the mission of the SFAC and generally contributes positively to the mission of the University, then the request should be honestly considered, regardless of the requester. 

For example, various student groups and community outreach efforts may be eligible for SSF. For a statement of the Regents’ policy, refer to the Regents policy 3101, which can be found online.
