Mr. Rich Schweigert, Chief Financial Officer, Colorado State University (CSU) System, presented an emergency supplemental request for the Equine Production Laboratory, along with a request for legislation. Committee members received a written description of the request, prepared by Legislative Council Staff (Attachment B). Mr. Schweigert provided background on the Equine Reproduction Laboratory request, and discussed the potential for introducing legislation to provide flexibility with a student fee charged pursuant to the Western Interstate Commission on Higher Education (WICHE). Mr. Schweigert addressed a question from the committee about the insurance claim filed after the original building burned in a fire. He also responded to questions about the WICHE fee. Discussion ensued regarding how to move forward with drafting the proposed legislation, and the timeline for the Equine Reproduction Laboratory project.
