As federal and state budgets for higher education are tightened, students across the country are approving increased fees for non-academic buildings that otherwise would not get built. In Washington State a number of schools have approved such funding plans.
- At WSU that includes two fees of $120 each per semester to fund the Compton Union Building and the campus Recreation Center. Students recently approved an additional $25 per semester to pay for renovation of Martin Stadium.
- Central Washington students pay $95 per quarter for their Recreation Center and $64 per quarter for the Student Union building.
- Western Washington students pay $89 a quarter to fund their Recreation Center and $35 per quarter to fund a variety of non-academic buildings.
