Many of the candidates in this year's student body presidential election are saying they want to work on keeping tuition at an affordable rate for UNH students.
Candidates can say a lot of things, but actions speak louder than words.
Caroline Beaulieu is a candidate for student body president. As part of her platform, Beaulieu said she feels students should help combat the rising cost of UNH tuition. Yet, as the student who had the most influence on last year's tuition increase decision, Beaulieu voted in favor of a 14.4 percent tuition increase for in-state students. Beaulieu is also the current student trustee. This means she is the only student from UNH, Plymouth State College and Keene State College who gets to vote on whether or not tuition increases and mandatory fee increases actually get implemented.
