Appeal helps restore funding
By Heidi White
Staff Reporter
Funding for the Office of Campus
Recreation’s wellness program was
restored after an
appeal to the Com
AEII mittee for Fees
§\ Allocation on
i nursaay.
Funding had
been cut by CFA
on Tuesday for a
proposed fitness
program incorpo
rating all aspects
I_I oi mness, sucn as
a health risk ap
praisal, personal weight training and
aerobic programs and nutritional coun
seling.
The appeal began with an interac
tive demonstration of some services
the center’s fitness program would
offer and a presentation of why the
services were necessary.
A budget was proposed that would
have reinstated $ 12,960 ofthe original
CFA cut of $19,500. The cut reduced
the proposed staff person for the pro
gram to a 10-month position rather
than a full-time one.
The first vote on the proposal failed
by a vote of 5-5.
An amendment to add $2,500 to
Wellness Services was then proposed
and passed by a vote of 5-4, after one
committee member left. The amount
had been cut Tuesday from the overall
Campus Recreation budget because
CFA believed the revenue could be
generated from the income of the pro
posed program.
CFA voted again on an amendment
that would return $10,459 to the bud
get for the fitness program, and this
time it passed by a vote of 6-3.
The amount reinstated was $1 less
than the amount originally proposed
because CFA rules do not allow the
committee to vote on the same amend
ment more than once.
Stan Campbell, director of Campus
Recreation, said he was pleased and
excited that the committee accepted
the modified proposal.
“We think it’s a great benefit to the
students of the University of Nebraska
Lincoln, and we’re looking forward to
implementing it in the fall,” he said.
