The Florida State board of Trustees held a meeting today (11-14-08) to discuss a number of items. Student fees, budget cuts, and an evaluation of FSU President T.K. Wetherell all took place. By fall 2009, the activity and service fee, health fee, and athletic fees will all increase about 30 to 48 cents per credit hour.FSU President T.K. Wetherell commented on the meeting, saying, "Really the issue with us today was more--we have fewer students so we have fewer students paying those fees and we had to adjust the budget from this current year based on the reductions that come in."Trustees feel that President Wetherell has done a very good job of handling the budget situation, and they have renewed his contract as President of Florida State University.
