Thanks to all of your hard work and support,
the Talley Student Center Board of Directors voted to support the
$39.45 Student Center Operations Fee increase request! But, this
is only one step along the way. We still need your help!
PLEASE Contact your Student Senators by Monday, October 10th to
tell them you support the Student Center Operations Fee increase
request. (See the instructions and contact info below!)
October 12 ~ Rally for the Arts
The Campus Arts Council, Mu Beta Psi, and Alpha Psi Omega are asking
for your help!
We urge you to join us on Wednesday, October 12, as we rally for
the arts in support of the proposed Student Centers Operations Fee
Increase. As a student involved with one of the six programs of
ARTS NC STATE, you know how important the arts are on this campus,
and we need you to share your feelings with your Student Senators.
The Student Senate will meet on October 12 at 7:30pm to consider
the proposed fee increases for 06/07 and vote whether or not to
endorse them. As the students most closely involved with the six
arts programs on campus – your presence that evening WILL
make a difference!
There has already been a tremendous amount of support generated
in support of the arts thanks to the strong advocacy of dedicated
students. In fact, the Talley Student Center Board of Directors
voted just Monday night in support of the $39.45 Student Center
Operations Fee Increase.
But we can’t stop there! It is extremely important that the
University Fee Review Committee receive a strong endorsement from
the Student Senate for these fees that will greatly benefit the
arts programs that we all enjoy.
Here is what we need you to do on the 12th ~
6:30pm – Steps of Talley (Cates Avenue side)
Gather for PIZZA and receive some materials and last minute information
about the fee requests.
7:00pm – March to the Student Senate Chambers with the NC
State Drumline
The NC State Drumline will proudly (and loudly!) lead the way to
the Student Senate Chambers in Witherspoon. The more of you that
turn out, the more impressive our presence will be!
7:00-7:30pm – Student Senate Chambers, Witherspoon Student
Center
We will talk with our Senate representatives and encourage their
support for the Student Center Operations Fee Request.
Together, we are the students on this campus who know how important
the arts are in our lives and how important they are to the life
of NC State University. Make your voice heard. Join us on October
12!
Thanks!
Ashley Peacock – President, Mu Beta Psi
Jessie Stewart – President, Alpha Psi Omega
Beth McIntyre – President, Campus Arts Council
Call to Action! ARTS NC STATE needs your help
