Tuition trend editorial argues for KU tuition rise
The Kansas University proposed 5 percent tuition hike aims to offset a $7 million cut in state funding, lifting the total KU increase to $9.1 million for the Lawrence campus. In-state undergraduates would pay $4,789 per semester, with out-of-state costs higher, and total costs near $20,000 to $25,000 yearly when housing and other expenses are included. The piece calls for partnership between lawmakers and universities and notes community colleges may absorb the overflow as four-year costs rise.
