Controversy over possible service fee hike at Lee College
Vivian Blevins Lee College president says a $28,226 shortfall in 1989 90 scholarship funding requires a higher student service fee. Athletic scholarships would rise 60 percent from 74000 to 118236 and departmental from 15000 to 30000. The advisory student service fee committee opposes the increase, citing a $92558 budget balance and funds from last year. The committee met April 20 to propose the 1989 90 budget of 123054 with projected revenues at 105000. A memo dated April 26 warned a fee increase may be needed to fund the items properly.
