Bruin Emergency Relief Fund Language
Shall the Undergraduate Students Association ensure the student-run support of those in crises
by increasing student fees by $2.00 per undergraduate student per quarter in order to establish
a USAC Emergency Fund that shall be allocated to undergraduate students facing emergencies
that require financial assistance?
This new fee would be collected from all undergraduate students enrolled in Fall, Winter, and
Spring, beginning in Fall 2021.
This fee will be adjusted annually by the Los Angeles County Consumer Price Index in order to
address changes due to inflation and rising costs of living, beginning in Fall 2022.
25% of the amount collected will be returned to undergraduate financial aid.
