Proposed California State University tuition hikes anger students - ANDREW EDWARDS, Mercury News

California State University students may see their second consecutive tuition increase next year, but any decision on the $288 tuition increase question won’t come for another two months. The prospect of a delay, however, didn’t stop some students and faculty members from showing up to CSU headquarters in Long Beach on Tuesday in order to speak against the proposed increase, at times breaking into chants during the course of the Cal State University Board of Trustees meeting. “No hikes. No fees. Education should be free,” rang the words of one chant coming from a group of about 20 students in the audience. Base tuition for the CSU is $5,742 per year. Individual campuses charge varying amounts of fees, which can run into the thousands. https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/03/20/proposed-csu-tuition-hikes-anger-students/
