The Student Association gave its support to the initiative, sending a unanimous petition to the VSC Board of Trustees.

Dear Trustees,
We, the undersigned, are unified in our belief that Castleton State College needs to improve athletics, academics and overall campus capabilities related to student life in order to remain competitive with other colleges, now and in the future. We agree that the Phase IV Student Activities improvements will benefit us and the college, and will make us even prouder alumni. The Student Association endorses the proposed Phase IV athletics and student activities projects, along with the new activities fee of $300 per semester, which is one part of the college business plan to financially support the projects. We support President Wolk as a representative of our general student
Assembly.
