Professor Helm explained that as Colby tries to keep the annual increase in tuition down, adding a new faculty position becomes an expensive propo- sition. "Each year many departments and programs put forth convincing cases for additional staffing. Classics is one such department," said Dean Yeterian, who has not yet seen the petition and was only informed of it by the Echo. from Colby College .
