Graphic Communication Department College Based Fees Letter to Students 2022-23

 
November 2022 
 
Dear Graphic Communication Students, 
 
In April 2002, CLA students voted to pay additional student fees to support and enhance instructional programs in the college. Student feedback is therefore important to determining how this money is spent. 
 
This year, student feedback was obtained via the CBF Committee, comprised of students Jake McConnell, Francisca Soeherman, Sarah Kelly, and faculty Colleen Twomey.  
 
This year all CBF money went to support course offerings in the department. We use this money to save seats in courses for GrC majors and to enable us to offer small enrollment courses.
 
For the 2022/2023 Academic Year, CBF money will be used to support the following courses:
