Midyear tuition hikes hit Ohio public colleges
Public universities in Ohio and several other states have raised tuition midsemester to offset a 6 percent cut in higher education funding. At Kent State University, senior Jason Roudebush faces an extra 138 dollars, as campuses like the ice arena and facilities require more student contributions. The moves, last seen in the early 1990s, draw concern from student groups about impacts on low income and first generation students amid budget gaps.

Judge delays trial in documents case over terrorism link
A federal prosecutor said the government sought terrorism charges against Karim Koubriti Ahmed Hannan and Youssef Hmimssa but lacked sufficient evidence and foreign government reports. Judge Rosen scheduled the illegal documents trial for late March or early April while more evidence is gathered. The men remain in custody after a Sept raid unearthed Arabic notes believed to outline attacks on Alia airport and a plot against former Defense Secretary Cohen.
