comprehensive fee.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0;margin-bottom:16px\">As the College works to be more transparent about budgeting and financial decisions, this session will offer a clear look at how the institutional budget comes together. Attendees will hear about the Campus Budget Committee\u2019s   role, how changes to the comprehensive fee affect revenue, and how those funds are distributed across priorities such as financial aid, compensation, operating costs, and deferred maintenance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0\">The discussion will include real examples and trade-offs the committee considers, giving a behind-the-scenes view of how financial decisions are made and the values that guide them. Whether you\u2019re interested in tuition setting, curious about   budget priorities, or just want to better understand how the College operates, this session will help make the process clearer.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"button_block block-3\" role=\"presentation\" style=\"mso-table-lspace:0;mso-table-rspace:0\" width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"pad\">\n<div align=\"center\" class=\"alignment\"><a href=\"https:\/\/t.e2ma.net\/click\/3n503j\/nr5ib5j\/raj98v\" style=\"color:#000000;text-decoration:none;\" target=\"_blank\"><!--[if mso]><v:roundrect arcsize=\"12%\" fillcolor=\"#eab337\" href='https:\/\/t.e2ma.net\/click\/3n503j\/nr5ib5j\/72j98v' style=\"height:33px;width:180px;v-text-anchor:middle;\" xmlns:v=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml\" xmlns:w=\"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word\">  <v:stroke color=\"#000000\" dashstyle=\"Solid\" weight=\"1px\"\/>  <w:anchorlock\/>  <v:textbox inset=\"0px,0px,0px,0px\">  <center dir=\"false\" style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px\"\/><![endif]--><span class=\"button\" style=\"background-color: #eab337;
