In the spring of 2004 the Clean Energy Fee was successfully
passed by the Auraria Campus student body. The new student fee was created for
the explicit purpose of “purchasing clean renewable electrical power for the
Auraria Campus from August 23, 2004
through May 12, 2007”. This
fee program has been successful in making the Auraria Campus a leader across
the state and the nation in the purchase of renewable energy. SACAB is
asking for approval of an increase to $5 per student, and the extension of the
fee to be placed on the ballot for student vote April, 2007.
