But I suppose I should be happy with that; I wouldn't want to see a concerted effort to raise it even more. Yes, very casually allocated, as in with little effort.

More importantly, it proves that things really can be changed. Jill’s piece today (history of the ASUO) really shatters the notion that things have been going as they are forever.

It doesn't "occur without intention or calculation," which is what incidental means. How about the "Premeditated Ripoff Fee" At least the ODE has the guts to call ASUO on it's massive budget. Up here in Cowtown, ASOSU spends grotesque amounts of money and The Barometer praises them every step of the way. Hooray for journalism and government working hand-in-hand to achieve nothing of importance.
