HIRSCHFELD: The Board of Visitors ought to listen to students before raising tuition, again
This Friday, the U.Va. Board of Visitors will likely vote to raise tuition and fee rates by a proposed range of 2 to 3.5 percent. Considering that the University’s tuition and fee rates have already increased 78 percent in the past decade, the Board of Visitors owes students a better explanation on why they are considering raising tuition, yet again.
