Town Hall Meeting
Senator Tyler BoggessStudent Body Treasurer Kyle Lewandowski
Student Body Auditor Cory Vancura
Agenda
• Overview of Student Activity Fees & Current Distribution
• Overview of Proposed Change to BSC/SDF• The Numbers Involved• Conclusions• Discussion and Questions
The Student Activity Fee• Annual SAF: $132• $12/student to the
Campus Readership Program
• Remaining $120/student divided between:– Budget: $279,536– BSC: $121,500– SDF: $47,452.50
The Baseline Estimate
• Definition: The gross dollar amount that Senate is responsible for allocating during the following fiscal/academic year
• Provided to Senate in March from Vice President of Finance Vicky Payseur
• Sum of the Student Activity Fees each student will pay, based on the estimated total fall enrollment
• ’09-’10 Baseline Estimate: $450,000• ’10-’11 Baseline Estimate: $465,000
Activity Fee, SDF, and BSC
• Student Development Fund (10%): discretionary account for Student Fees and Allocation Committee to distribute one-time funding to any student and/or student organization for academic year.
• Board of Student Communications (27%): governing body of all student media, including Times Delphic, Drake Mag, Drake Broadcasting, etc.
• Student Senate does NOT have oversight of the allocation or spending of the BSC. The only control of BSC budget is the % of the Baseline it receives.
The Proposed BSC / SDF Change
• Proposal: reduce the percentage of Student Activity Fees the BSC receives from 27% to 25%. Increase the percentage of SAF the SDF receives from 10% to 12%.
• 2010-2011 BSC Budget (25%) = $116,250• 2010-2011 SDF Budget (12%) = $55,800• Primary Reason: BSC has consistently had a
budget surplus, while the SDF has consistently had a shortage of funds.

SDF Shortage With Increase
Conclusions
• The BSC has consistently had a large amount of unspent funds at the end of the academic year.
• The SDF has continually had to find other sources of funds to continue funding student organizations.
• The benefit to the SDF will be greater than the hindrance to the BSC.
• BOTTOM LINE: proposal is designed to correct an imbalance in the budget of Student Activity Fees and ensure that SAF is spent in the current academic year as much as possible.
