The Executive Committee of the Board of Visitors approved tuition and fee increases Friday. In-state fees will rise 2.2 percent in 1996-'97, so with tuition frozen, in-state commuter students will pay $4,101, compared to $4,014 this year. Out-of-state tuition and fees will increase 3.3 percent, raising the total cost for out-of-state commuters from $8,294 to $8,580. The cost of room and board will increase 2 percent from $4,576 to $4,666. In-state, on-campus student charges will increase from $8,590 to $8,770. Out- of-state students living on campus will pay $13,246 next year, compared with $12,870 this year. The Virginia General Assembly voted in early March to freeze in-state tuition for two years and allowed modest increases for out-of-state increases. The General Assembly did not legislate any rules regarding fee increases, although state policy indicates that fees must be tied to specific projects such as paying off a student services building, according to the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia. The increase in cost for in-state students JMU is not actually in tuition, but in student fees, which include the comprehensive fee and a computer literacy fee. According to Fred Hilton, director of Media Relations, the comprehensive fee includes anything that is not academic, such as health services, construction and athletics. The computer literacy fee is used to maintain and build the computer labs R(M;ER WOLLENBERG/pAoto editor on campus, he said.

They break out the pitchforks and wheelbarrows to clean stalls and feed the cows, sheep, peacocks and horses that live on the farm. Students help out in exchange for free horseback riding. "It's kind of a symbiotic relationship," Myers said. "The students get their thing, and I get labor." The small 70-acrc horse farm, called Elk Run Stables, lies 20 miles south of Harrisonburg. Students set up an appointment with Marcy Smith, a former JMU student who manages the farm and instructs students in horseback riding. At the beginning of each semester. Smith puts an ad in The Breeze, and usually about a dozen students reply. They put Tn a few hours of work for her, and she gives them a short lesson in horseback riding. Myers started this exchange in 1977, when he first purchased the farm. "I had some people express an interest in it back in 1977. For 10 years we never advertised. People knew I had horses and liked horses and wanted to come down." He said some students became accomplished riders. "In the early years, I taught them. Now it's Marcy." Smith said, "I get a lot of beginners who think they want to ride bat have never had the opportunity. I've had some JMU students who rode with me for a year or two," she said. "They got to the point where they could ride really fine, and 1 took them to fox hunts." One student who earned the opportunity to accompany Smith to events is junior Diane Strebel, who has been riding for 11 years. In October 1995, Strebel saw Smith's ad.
