Protests over California tuition increase

Angry students statewide are protesting a 32-percent undergraduate tuition hike instituted by the California Board of Regents.

 

Protesting students and others say the increased tuition will hurt working and middle-class students who benefit from state-funded education. But officials argue that a fee increase and deep cuts in school spending are necessary because of a persistent budget crisis that has forced reductions across California's state government.
