The UNC Board of Governors last week allowed tuition increases at eight campuses, which drew fire from some board members. Since 1998, when the board adopted a tuition policy that allows individual campuses to raise tuition, seven campuses have applied for tuition increases. Leading members of the board, however, said that tuition increases would be followed by efforts to increase financial aid to the neediest students. The board approved a recommendation by its Committee on Budget and Finance that each institution set aside an amount of their tuition increase adequate to hold financially needy students harmless. Increases in tuition for professional and graduate programs at UNC-Chapel Hill.
