Wescoe rally set for today to promote tuition discussion
Students and faculty are encouraged to voice their opinions on issues related to the tuition increases.
Tuition dialogues will continue today in a different manner. A rally/open mic event will take place at noon in front of Wescoe Hall in an effort to continue the discussion of the tuition increase.
Though the event is not sponsored by any campus organization, the purpose is to get people talking about the issues before the final tuition proposal is decided by the Board of Regents in April.
"This event is meant to provide an open forum on campus for students and any faculty to voice their concerns about paying more tuition," said Kyle Browning, student body vice president.
