The Board of Governors at Missouri Western State University has reschedule a telephone poll for Wednesday to consider reimbursing a percentage of tuition to undergraduate students for the fall semester.

The board had planned to vote on the issue two weeks ago but that vote was postponed.

Western said the Board of Governors will now be polled at 9 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 8 to consider an administration recommendation to refund a 1.74% ($3.35 per credit hour) tuition increase charged to resident undergraduate students this fall.

The Board Secretary will call members individually to record their votes. The polling will take place in Popplewell Hall, room 218. At no time will board members be on the line at the same time, and no discussion among board members will take place. We will issue a press release once enough votes to render a decision are counted.

Below is the recommendation that will be voted on:

The Administration recommends the University’s Board of Governors approve the refunding of the 1.74% ($3.35/cr hr) tuition increase charged to resident undergraduate students in the fall of 2014, and not charge the tuition increase in spring of 2015.
