The specific increase each student will face is still unknown and will not be released until the school year is complete. “The Board of Regents will set and release the tuition amount in June,” Kristen Hendrickson, budget director of the vice chancellor of administration and finance, said. According to Lisa Wheeler, interim vice chancellor for administration and finance, the reason behind the increase is necessary for the experience of students and faculty. “We want to make sure we provide a quality education and for students to be able to afford that,” Wheeler said. One student said she feels education is worth a few more dollars. Sally King/Student Voice “It’s unfortunate, but if it’s needed to Sen.

I contend that independent hip-hop remains a complex contemporary subculture. My research design utilizes a mixed methods approach. First, I analyze the lyrics of independent hip-hop albums through a content analysis of twenty-five independent albums from 2000-2013. I uncover the dominant ideologies of independent hip-hop artists regarding race, class, gender, sexual orientation, and calls for social change.
