CONCERNING RESIDENCE halls, the proposal suggested that housing contract payments be
prorated over the period of the veteran's occupancy without requiring a payment system. Also, the proposal recommended that a predemedigned wing or floor be located with veterans in Me Collium Hall.
The second proposal recommends that a deferred tuition payment program be established to supplement the assessed a penalty fee for late tuition payment have their money refunded by the government.
