  1. Providing a student environment which contributes to cultural and social growth;
  2. Providing services/activities and facilities that are otherwise unavailable; and,
  3. A reasonable balance between events aimed at attracting the highest student attendance and events aimed at specific community and/or cultural events.

WHAT IS THE SOURCE OF THE FUNDING?

A portion of WSU Spokane student tuition is earmarked as “Services and Activities (S and A) Fees.”
