| Tuition
Debate Continues
by Mary McGuirt and Erika Heyder
Several UNC-CH students showed up at the
Board of Trustees meeting Wednesday afternoon
to hear the board members discuss options
for raising tuition. The board has been considering
the three options, and students appeared
at the meeting
voicing concerns about tuition hikes.
Chancellor James Moeser recommends raising in-state and out-of-state tuition
by similar percentages, but that would mean a larger increase for out-of-state
students.
Student Body President Matt Calabria doesn't think tuition should be raised
so steeply for out-of-state students. Provost Robert Shelton relates to students
and parents struggling to meet ever-increasing tuition demands.
"I had three kids go through school--it's
part of the deal," said Shelton.
Whichever option the board chooses, the increase won't go into effect until
next academic year.
