It's a idea generating entity. Everything I'm discussing in that meeting is public knowledge. When the plan was initially proposed last year, Miller said SGA was in favor of course level tuition differences as opposed to students paying more as a result of their class standing. However, Miller, Paw Paw senior, admitted that the confidentially request made by Roscoe put him in a awkward position. We were asked by the dean not to make it press.
Most universities use teared tuition.
It seems to be a more fair way of distributing cost. Student advisory council members, Leteisha Bowman, Detroit sophomore and Amy Linscott, Wyoming senior, said they were not permitted to comment on tiered tuition at Roscoe's request. According to Scoby, as of fall 1996, Eastern Michigan University, Michigan State University, Oakland State University, University of Michigan - Dearborn, Western Michigan University and Wayne State University all have a tiered tuition program similar to this. According to information released by Mid-American Conference schools, there are no MAC schools outside the state with tiered tuition systems.
