Hello Learning Center Colleagues,<br>
<br>
My name is Ariel Wetzel, and I'm the director of the Writing & Reading Center at Green River College. We learned recently that our Associated Student government would no longer be supporting tutoring centers through 522 funds. 522 funds are a "[l]ocal fund
maintained by colleges and universities to account for locally approved student body activities" (WA Office of Financial Management). At Green River College, the Writing & Reading Center, Tutoring & Resource Center, and Math Learning Center were funded through
522 in addition to a permanent instructional budget.<br>
<br>
Our student government cited that our peer institutions were no longer funding tutoring through 522 funds. I wanted to reach out and do my own research. Are your centers partially funded through 522 / student activity fees? I would appreciate any information
you're able to share to bring back to my college.</div>
