Fire Senter!

[minerfan_14]

Yes I remember. This is why I suggest it be mandated and not voted upon by students.

And yes I understand its money, but that's the cost. We can't continue with the pobresito attitude. If everybody contributes, then everybody is a part of it. Fair and square.

Think that's the only way your going to get it. Texas education code lays out each university that has one and they mention "The amount of the fee per semester credit hour may be increased from one academic year to the next only if approved by a majority vote of the students participating in a general student election held for that purpose or, if the amount of the increase does not exceed five percent, by the legislative body of the student government of the university." Which implies there was a vote before to implement it. Crtl+F and type in "election" and you'll get that for those universities.

Strange how this thread went from "Fire Senter!" to student fees via Fire Dimel.

Dimel has this going for him, an old message board compares Dimel to Mike Price.

Would be great if Bloomquist asks about a 1997 pool table incident in Wyoming. LOL

Talk about calling the 8-ball corner pocket?

Here is the 2010 SGA Election Results which include the the Athletic Fee vote.

Just got a little down reading this.

Senator ar Large... the great Manny "Dubbs" Arzate.... RIP brother

With all that being said I would love it if Dimel shut us all up. If he benches the two seniors and brings in Goodwin and Hardison for the last four games would be a nice start. If they move the ball, pose a passing threat, and score over 17 points per game will give us hope. If we get lucky and win 2 of those will show improvement in the overall w/l record. Preferably RICE and NMSU, but I won’t be mad if he beats Charlotte too.

But if the future qbs come in along with those 3-star freshmen recruits and the offense looks worse and we go 0-4 serious questions need to be asked about what will be different in year 3.

We will see Hardison and Goodwin and see a ray of sunshine. Word has it that Hardison has an arm from the celestial heavens and there is only one video on YouTube on him from NMMI camp and from what I saw I believe it. He was a total unknown coming out of high school in southern New Mexico and landed in Dimel's lap.

That wasn’t even close.

So what is the established athletic fee that they voted not to increase in 2010? I don't even see one.

A little less than 2/3rds of the about 3600 students voted against campus life and athletic enhancement initiative in 2010.

When will UTEP establish a fee and how often can there be a vote to increase the fee if needed? Has anybody on Senters chosen athletics committee discussed this?

Find a student, get them to propose it at an SGA meeting. Bribe a majority to vote for it, then coordinate w/the VP of Student Affairs to put it for a vote. Advertise it, pray to get more than in 2010, and see what happens.

Good Luck!

So UTEP gives free tickets to games for students, but doesn't have an athletic fee? Interesting.

Senter did talk about this last year but it has to come from the students. I am not sure if Senter has people talking to SGA about this currently. I would like to say there has been talks but I doubt it. Plus, students think they pay too much for school right now, even though UTEP's tuition is one the lowest in the state. It would be a hard sell to students but it is possible with a good enough marketing plan. If I was still a student and in SGA this would be one of the projects I would be working on

Let’s see if it’s the upside down world with Hardison. Comparing the jc stats for Kai and Har are complete opposites. Maybe their play on the field is too.

FWIW utsa tried the athletic student fee last year.

Hardison is still a pup. KL was not prior to coming to UTEP.

Yeah but at least they have an athletics fee. An equivalent fee would help UTEP athletics tremendously

Athletics Fee (SATH)
A charge of $20 per semester credit hour with a maximum of $240 per semester is assessed all students to provide funding for UTSA athletic programs.

UTSA has 32000 students.
