Tuition Hearings, West Bank Provide Controversy It was pointed out that since 1946 every State Legislature has raised tuition. The rates have climbed 285 per cent, from $25 to $71. It was also pointed out the increase wouldn’t he much, but might Ik enough to force students to leave the University. Of the over 1,000 students presenting their views on tuition increases, only one favored a fee hike. By hearing student views on the possible increase, MSA hopes to formulate a united position regarding tuition rates to present to the Legislature. It was felt student opinion might influence the legislators. A parking lot now, hut if everything goes well and the Legislature's 7 2 million dollars for the University expansion program isn't ruled unconstitutional, this area of the West Bank will be the home of University buildings and classrooms. 2G
