       M. Recommendation to Abolish Student Athletics Fee Presented (TR 1)

       The Chairman called on Mr. Wendelsdorf to present the two recom-
mendations which he had submitted for consideration at the May meeting. Mr.
Wendelsdorf stated that he had learned since submitting his recommendation
relative to the abolition of student athletics fees that the Board of Trustees does
not have the power to raise or lower fees and, therefore, wished to amend the
proposal which had been mailed to the Board members in advance of the meeting
so that it would read as follows:

       Recommendation: that the Board of Trustees recomnmend to the Council
on Public Higher Education the following proposal:

       The athletics fee of $6. 25 per full-time student per semester now
assessed as part of the mandatory activities fee be abolished, and the combined
tuition-activities fee be reduced accordingly beginning with the fall 1973
semester. This regulation shall in no way infringe upon the power of the
Athletics Association Board of Directors to develop a student athletics program
based upon voluntary fee payments.

       In support of his recommendation, Mr. Wendelsdorf then read his
Rationale for Abolition of Athletics Fee, copies of which he distributed to
members of the Board and a copy of which is included at the end of the Minutes.
Following the reading of the rationale, Mr. Wendelsdorf moved adoption of his
amended resolution. The motion died for lack of a second. (See TR 1 and the
Rationale for Abolition of Athletics Fee at the end of the Minutes.
