Psychology & Child Development Department - College Based Fees Letter to Students 2020-21

February 16, 2021

Dear Psychology and Child Development Majors,

In March 2002, CLA students voted to pay additional student fees to support and enhance instructional programs in the college. Student feedback is therefore critical to determining how this money is spent.

This year, student feedback was obtained via undergraduate members of the Student Advisory Committee, comprised of Delaney Romo (CD), Taylor Scout (CD), Allie Aarrestad (PSY), Madison Anderson-Au (PSY), Chi Lao (PSY), Rebecca Luenser (PSY), Evan Schweitzer (PSY).

For the 2020-21 academic year, all CBF money went to save seats for PSY and CD majors in the following courses:
