Regents mull tuition hike impacts on student costs
The Board of Regents seeks a 22 percent rise with a plan to use the extra 2.58 million for student employee salaries and operating costs. Legislators had proposed 15 percent to shift more cost to students, with Hayden noting aims for students to bear 25 percent of education costs. Some lawmakers warned against mixed signals if 22 percent proceeds, while GM pauses a Wyandotte County plant decision for at least a year as the Legislature opens.
