(a) The board of regents of Texas Southern University may impose on each student enrolled in the university a student fee not to exceed $75 per student for each semester of the regular term and not to exceed $37.50 per student for each summer term, as the board determines necessary for the purpose of operating, maintaining, improving, and equipping the student center and acquiring or constructing additions to the student center. A fee collected under this section is in addition to any other use or service fee authorized to be imposed.
(b) The fees collected under this section shall be deposited to the credit of an account known as the “Texas Southern University Student Center Fee Account” and shall be under the control of the student fee advisory committee established under § 54.5031.

(c) The student fee advisory committee annually shall submit to the board of regents a complete and itemized budget for the student center with a complete report of all student center activities conducted during the past year and all expenditures made in connection with those activities. The board of regents may make changes in the budget that the board determines are necessary. After approving the budget, the board of regents, in accordance with this section, may impose the student center fees for that year in amounts sufficient to meet the budgetary needs of the student center.
(d) The board may not increase the amount of the student center fee in any academic year unless the amount of the increase is approved by a majority of the students voting in an election held for that purpose or by a majority of the student government of the institution.
(e) A fee imposed under this section may not be considered in determining the maximum student services fee that may be charged under § 54.503(b).
(f) The fee may not be charged after the fifth academic year in which the fee is first charged unless, before the end of that academic year, the university has issued bonds payable in whole or in part from the fee, in which event the fee may not be charged after the academic year in which all such bonds, including refunding bonds for those bonds, have been fully paid.
