creases. Their main concerns are
a 25 percent across the board in
crease in laboratory fees for art
classes, a 100 percent increase in
practicum fees for the College of
Education, a 50 percent increase
in bicycle storage locker fees and a
$15 conduct administration fee for
judicial hearings.
“We are very concerned with the
trend of adding all these fees to in
dividual classes when there are al
ready resource fees for each major
that you are enrolled in,” Buzbee
said. “This is something that will
have definite interest to students
and their pocketbooks.”
Although some of the fees, such
as the laboratory fees for art class
es, are only increasing by $5,
Buzbee and Berkman said it is im
portant for people to realize that
the special fees are another layer
on top of tuition, resource fees, the
energy surcharge, the technology
fee, the building fee, the student in
cidental fee, the Student Recre
ation Center fee and the health
service fee.
Buzbee said the special fees and
fines lead to financial difficulties for
students because the money is not
a part of the tuition calculation,
which makes it tricky for students
dependent on financial aid to deter
mine the cost of education.
“It raises the issue of students
choosing their courses based on
their financial ability to pay for
them, and not on their overall edu
cational goals,” Buzbee said.
However, several University staff
members believe the proposed fee
increases are justified.
Robert Melnick, dean of the
School of Architecture and Allied
Arts, said the 05 increase in labora
tory fees for art classes is intended
to save students money. He added
the laboratory fees are used to pur
chase materials in bulk.
Associate Director of the Depart
ment of Public Safety Tom Hicks
said the proposed bicycle storage
locker fee increase is necessary be
cause the lockers next to Oregon
Hall are more than 10 years old
and in need of replacement. The
current fee is $25 for students,
with a maximum charge of $100
allowed. The new proposed fee
would bump the range up to a
maximum of $150.
Chris Loschiavo, director of Stu
dent Judicial Affairs in the Office
of Student Life, said the proposed
$15 conduct administration fee for
judicial hearings will make the
process more equitable because
there is already a $15 fee for cases
heard in residence halls. He added
that if the student is found not
guilty, they will not be required to
pay the new fee.

Those who had experience with
unplanned outings agreed that the
most important thing was to have
a positive attitude and to not
get upset when things don’t
run smoothly.
“Those unplanned vacations
were the best trips I’ve ever had,”
Darnell said.

Scrapbook
continued from page 5
ropean vacation deserved more ef
fort and elegance.
When my scrap book is finally
done, it will be a polished testament
to my trip that I can revisit decades
from now. Arranged in chronologi
cal order, it will form a narrative to
carry me through the entirety of my
journey. The seemingly worthless
maps, brochures and tickets give in
valuable detail — providing dates,
locations and descriptions that
would otherwise be forgotten.
It will also provide a concrete way
to share my experience with others.
Oral accounts are often not enough;
the photos and souvenirs will allow
my friends and family to visualize
what I describe. My travels will be
recreated in two-dimensional form,
for both myself and others to relive.
