University of the Pacific tuition increase spurs protests - Oula Miqbel, News-Sentinel

Protests over a tuition increase erupted at the University of the Pacific on Thursday afternoon in front of the Alex and Jeri Vereschagin Alumni House. The student-led demonstration was triggered by the proposal of a 3.2 percent tuition increase for the 2019-20 school year. The Board of Regents officially voted in favor of a 3 percent undergraduate tuition increase on Friday, the lowest tuition increase in the past 10 years. https://www.lodinews.com/news/article_136f75a8-d437-11e8-a774-1bc9ec3c9746.html
