PAGE 2, RETRIEVER, 17 NOVEMBER 1975 ComlDent I I Four Unaffordable Years ~ More than half of Maryland's high school students who took the Scholastic Aptitude Test last year reported that they could not afford the cost of a four year state college in Maryland. Not ten percent, or a forgettable quarter of them pointed out their inability to pay, but 85 per cent of the Black students and 55 per cent of the White students. The director of the Maryland Council on Higher Education called the finding, "very sobering, and I'm afraid, very accurate". Undaunted by the student's inability to pay, the University of Maryland Board of Regents voted to raise it's tuition cost for the fall semster beginning in 1976. This will further in­ crease the students dilemma. Its a bit puzzling that such a move could have been taken, as it seems, at least at UMBC, to be contrary to the schools own self interest. With students already dubious about the value of four years at a liberal arts college, the U of M tuition increase will help put UMBC out of the Baltimore college competition for students. UMBC is one of the only colleges in Maryland with a declining enrollment. Nearly half of the students who begin their education here leave before they are finished, and cost is one of the reasons which should be considered for this dropoff. Next year, Towson and Morgan State will cost nearly $100 less than UMBC. It would seem that enough interest would have been taken in this matter to have it corrected by the administration. Since it's been left to the students to correct, we encourage their efforts to have the tuition hike rescinded.
