Students and Faculty Protest CSU Fee Hikes
Dozens of students and faculty at Sacramento State University spent their lunch hour listening to complaints about a decision to raise tuition in the California State University system.
"We're having to pay more and more and receive less and less," said Liz Morales, a junior. She was one of the organizers of the noon hour protest. "Our board of trustees passed an agreement to increase tuition by 10 percent and continue hiking up the fees until 2011," she said.
The vote by CSU trustees covers 23 campuses. Over the last four years CSU students have watched their fees jump by 76 percent. "I think it's going to put a lot of people out of school," said Scott Noyer who is a senior.
