Students changed the future of SIU in 2009 when they initiated the Green Fee, which equates to approximately $10 per semester, depending on total credit hours*. It was approved by 73% of students who voted in a campus-wide referendum. On May 7, 2009 the SIU Board of Trustees unanimously passed the fee, providing a regularized source of funding for on-campus sustainability projects.
*As of fall 2018, the Green Fee was consolidated into the General Student Fee.
