Members say changes initially demanded by the graduate board this summer included a 100 percent increase in monthly club dues--from $75 to $150.
D.U. officials had strongly negative reactions to that proposal and fought successfully for the reduction of dues from the proposed $150 to $100.
The graduate board also proposed an increase in punch fees, making the proposed amount roughly equal to current dues, according to D.U. Treasurer Dan R. Vereb '96.
"We figured, as officers, what would be doable for us is no more than $100 dollars. A lot of the guys can't afford to pay more than $100, so we told them that we would be okay raising dues to 100, but no more," Sprinkle said.
In the last five years, graduating club members have skipped out on dues, leaving combined debts of about $5,000 a year, club officials said.
