Tuition will remain the same but fees at Westfield State University will increase by $411, or 5.9 percent, for the 2012-2013 school year. The university’s board of trustees approved the increase Thursday night along with a new operating budget of $87.5 million for the new fiscal year that begins July 1. The budget represents a $3.1 million increase over this year. Officials said the fee increase is modest and needed to meet expenses and the loss of about $2 million in federal American Recovery Act funding from last year.
