As an outside observer, it would seem the problems are this:
-alums with money will pay if given the option
-current students are responsible for it
-only a select few have the motivation to do something
-those few don't know enough to understand how it works
You're having elections, is there a Webmaster position who can officially be responsible for this? If not, there should be. Along with things like finances, there should be a packet of web schtuff that goes from person to person so people aren't always asking who/what/where about this site.
FWIW, the internet isn't a hard thing to learn about. It might be a good idea to understand it because unless you're gonna be working on a shop floor, you're probably going to have to deal with it in some respect. That knowledge is pretty attractive to employers.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
