UW Regents OK tuition hike

UW Regents have cleared a tuition hike for state universities. Prior to the vote regents heard the presentation breaking down the proposed $5.6 billion dollar annual operating budget. Regent and current student Aaron Wingad talked of how the UW system has to make up for shortfalls from state government. Although far from perfect, Wingad said the budget does â??a reasonable job of spreading the burdenâ?¦among students, faculty and programs alike.â?
