Southeast regents to discuss budgets Friday

The Southeast Missouri State University Board of Regents will consider the university's general operating and auxiliary budgets for fiscal 2016 when it meets at 8:30 a.m. Friday in the board of regents room at Academic Hall.

The first item of business will be considering a motion to go into a closed session. When the open session reconvenes, the regents will announce actions taken during the closed session.

The board also will consider a fiscal 2017 capital budget request to be submitted to the Missouri Department of Higher Education; combining the Student Recreation Center, intramurals and Student Aquatic Center fees; and the cost of parking decals to take effect in fall 2015.

The board then will consider revised special course fees to take effect in fall 2015, a River Campus Board of Managers appointment, several Faculty Senate bills, a new academic program and a change in an academic program.

Report items presented to the board will focus on the first phase of the Greek housing project and the President's Task Force on Diversity Education.
