summary

If passed, this resolution would officially endorse "The Arts, Music, and Programming (AMP) Initiative," a student-led referendum proposing an $8.00 increase to the ASUC Fee per undergraduate student per semester, raising it from $34.00 to $42.00. The initiative seeks to enhance student life and culture by providing sustainable funding for ASUC SUPERB's entertainment programming and ASUC Berkeley Student Media's access to media production equipment. The fee, which will be collected from Fall 2026 until Spring 2036, allocates one-third of the increase to financial aid, $1.00 to BSM, and the remainder to SUPERB, addressing rising costs and student demand for high-caliber events.
