Board of Regents Meeting President Campbell informed the Senate that he attended a Board of Regents Meeting last Friday and two items of business were discussed concerning UNLV. The first was that the dormitory fees were increased by $50 per semester which was due to the cost of living increase. The second was that the band went up to this meeting also to get a loan for $55,000 of which they did receive $50,000 of, therefore, our request for a $95,000 loan will be coming out of a University Gift Account of which we will only be paying ten percent interest and funds will also be coming from the Special Funds Account. We will still be saving at least $10,000 if the Board of Regents approves this proposal. President Campbell informed the Senate that he would like to see the M.A.F. come up at the September Board of Regents Meeting which will be held here in Las Vegas. He will bring this up in Open Discussion. Vice President Wyman announced that Mark Ray is the new USUNS Treasurer.

It will be decided later whether it will be in Las Vegas or Reno. Vice President Wyman further informed the Senate that USUNS also passed a resolution in favor of the law school and this will also come up at the September Board of Regents Meeting.
