They need to stop giving the students the option to add the fee or not, and just add it. Students will never agree to add a fee. They don’t care about ULM athletics lol. I remember everyone called me crazy for trying to spread the word that we needed to add the fee lol. Students are just too short sighted and I don’t understand of all the fees, that’s the one where they give an option to students.

we had a vote in 2015 or 2016 i think. it was set to quietly pass until another student caught word of it and ran an A1 smear campaign a week out from the vote. it got shot down predictably. I want to say it was a couple hundred a semester. wasnt anything major.

$150 per semester would net roughly the following annual amounts based on the quick Googling of enrollment numbers.

UL: $4.8 Million added to current $33 Million budget revenues

ULM: $1.95 Million added to current $19 Million budget revenues

LA Tech: $3.6 Million added to current $28.6 Million budget revenues

Not exactly insignificant dollars for those athletic programs.
