’ ‘Green’ fee proposal should be reconsidered

Last week, SAGE introduced a proposal for a mandatory $12 “green fee.” Improving sustainability on campus is certainly a respectable cause and Georgia Southern University has already made great strides to make our campus more efficient. SAGE’s proposal cites data from 2008 in which 95.9 percent of students surveyed stated that “clean, renewable” energy was important or very important and 56 percent would be willing to pay more than $20 toward the fee. However, with the future of financial aid for students so uncertain, is this data still reliable? Cuts to the HOPE Scholarship and federal financial aid are lurking around Marcus Barkley/STAFF the corner. The way students approach paying for college and finding financial aid has changed over the last three years recession is America’s hangover as have students’ attitudes about what they want from GSU.
