Tuition freeze a boon for 2-year schools in Wisconsin - Nick Paulson, Wisconsin Rapids Tribune

The news that tuition will be frozen at all two-year University of Wisconsin institutions brought smiles to the faces of administrators of the two colleges in central Wisconsin. While there are a few complaints -- timing and a loss of money -- the opportunity to keep offering a lower-cost education in the current economy is a positive step. UW College tuition will remain $4,268 for the 2009-10 academic year, at least $1,000 less than all the other UW campuses. Tuition will rise 5.5 percent at the other universities.
