After reading about tuition increases in the UW System, I was especially disgusted to see the recent report of UW officials receiving raises, regardless of their already shocking salaries.
Students planning to attend any of the two- or four-year UW System schools will face a 6.9 percent increase in yearly tuition, which, on average, will add nearly $300 dollars to each student’s tuition bill. However, at the same time, the System president and numerous other top executives will receive more than a 2 percent pay increase twice within the next year.
