Itâ??s an example of “arrogance” for UW officials to force a five and a half percent tuition hike on students in these troubling economic times. Thatâ??s the feeling of state Representative Steve Nass, a Whitewater Republican. “This is going to hurt middle-class families in particular because they are the ones whose sons and daughters don’t get grants. This is going to pound them.” The Board of Regents is expected to approve the increase tomorrow, raising tuition on the Madison campus about $620, to a total of $7300 a year.
