As a specific stipulation of Wisconsin State Statute 36.09(5), students “shall have the responsibility for the disposition of allocable portions of the revenue received from student fees.”
The Segregated University Fee Allocation Commission (SUFAC) is the student governmental body charged with this responsibility. It consists of two student representatives from each college, two student representatives elected at large, and two student representatives appointed by Student Senate. Non-voting ex-officio members of the commission include an administrative liaison, representing the Chancellor’s Office; a faculty representative, appointed by the Faculty Senate; and a commission advisor appointed by the Assistant Chancellor for Student Affairs. Student Senate may appoint an ex-officio member at their discretion.
SUFAC’s major task is the distribution of the allocable funds generated by the student activities fee required of each student at the university. For the 2004-2005 fiscal year, the fee paid by each student amounts to $94, and the total allocations to organizations and departments exceeded $498,000. Any recognized campus organization or university department may request money from SUFAC. For the 2004-2005 fiscal year, SUFAC received requests from 76 organizations or departments of which 74 received funding.
SUFAC is also responsible for advising the Chancellor in setting the non-allocable fees charged to students. These fees support the cost of parking, stadium, health, Ullsvik Center, textbook, Children’s Center, PAC, ID systems, and municipal services. The Chancellor, prior to each year, sets these fees after consulting with SUFAC. For the 2004-2005 fiscal year, the fee paid by each student amounts to $809.
