Alden's concessions fail to pacify students at Ohio U
Ohio University students, led by Student Congress president Rob Christie, demand accountability over proposed 30 dollar in state and 60 dollar out of state quarterly fees and 1.8 million annual student services funding. Alden agrees to a Priorities Task Force and budget details but rejects student control of fees and consents. Calls for teach-in and potential strikes loom if five measures are not acted on.
