The Board of Regents met on campus Thursday and Friday and passed a resolution raising tuition in Florida public universities by I 0 percent Tuition at UCFfor the 1995-96 year is $59. 19 per credit hour for Florida residents, and $221.60 per credit hour for non-residents Next year, Florida residents will pay $64 per credit hour to attend UCF, while non-residents will pay $243.76 per credit hour. To show its concern over the cuts and tuition increase, the Florida Student Association (FSA), comprised of student body pn~sidents from each of the state's nine public universities, came to
UCF last week1 holding a town meeting on Thursday and a rally on Friday. "The tuition increase just shows that the Board of Regents is not really · concerned with your education here in the state of Florida," said FSA Ch<:tirrn.an George Tait "They aren't concerned with the future of Florida as they say they are. If they were concerned, then they would recognize that a lot of our students cannot afford to be in school as it is now, and if financial aid is cut and tuition is raised at the same time, many of your peers will not be in school in the future." The BOR refused to allow students .protesting tuition in creases into Friday's meeting at the UCF arena - even some television cameras were asked to leave the premises. After the meeting was under way, FSA members led a crowd of students into the BOR meeting. Protesters kept silent but held up signs denouncing tuition increases. "They tried to stop us today by keeping usoutofthearenaand by telling us we couldn't have ourpressconference," Taitsaid.
