Rising Tuition Spurs
Tax-Credit Program
WASHINGTON (CPS) Tuition increase* are
at the heart of the proposals for a tax-credit for
college tuitions, for it is the rising cost of going
to college that Sen Abraham Kibicoff, the spon
sor of the tax credit programs, says is making it
difficult for middle income families.
Higher tuitions are being considered by the
Ivy League and at many private schools, Colum
bia, for example, raised tuition $200 this year to
a total of $1,000. It was the fourth increase at
Columbia hi six years George Washington Uni
versity raised tuition from $1,250 to $1,400 for
the ninth increase in eleven years.
Syracuse raised tuition from $1,500 to $1,620
for undergraduates; Stanford, from $ 1.400 to
$1,505; and Catholic University from $1,200 to
$1,300. A few private schools, such as Finch and
Sarah Lawrence College, already charge more
than $2,<M)G in tuition alone.
The National Association of State Universities
and Land Grant Colleges reported that this year
the median instate tuition at its 07 members
schools was up 5 4 per cent over last year
Out-of-state tuition, the report said, is up 10 0
per cent from a median Figure of $612 last year
to the present median of $734 Median room costs
were up 5 1 per cent for men and 4 per cent for
women and board costs rose 2.3 per cent for men
and 3 per cent for women
Only 25 colleges in the association managed
to hold the line against increa ed student charges
this year, the report said, and a very few insti
tutions were able to lower some fees Last year
only 14 institutions had failed to show an in
crease in fees.
Pennsylvania State University was one of those
able to lower fees, and the school put a lower
in state tuition into effect Jan 10. A three term
year at the University Park campus now costs a
Pennsylvania resident $450 in tuition fees. The
previous cost was $525. Temple University in
Philadelphia also reduced tuition for the year
to $450 Tuition had been $920 Both cuts were
made possible by increased help from the states
lemple was officially declared a "state instru- i
mentality" last fall and thereby came in for in
creased state aid.
Decreased fees were also found at the Uni
versity of Hawaii where $14 was cut, the Univer \
sity of Rhode Island where hoard rates dropped |
$-rX), and the University of Wisconsin where tui
tion for the branch centers was cut. Wisconsin,
however, saw increased fees go into effect on its
Madison and Milwaukee campuses.
The report also showed that out of state stu
dent fees are rising more quickly than in state
fees. Last year, NASULGC reported that only j
nine schools charged non-residents $900 or more
and that only four of these charged more than
$1,000. This year there are 20 schools that charge
more than $900 and seven have gone over the
$1,000 mark.
Out of state tuition was raised this year at 59
schools, the report said, and in-state tuition went
up at 52. On the whole, out-of-state increase were
larger than those for in-state students with 26
institutions jumping out of state fees $100 or
more. In state fees went up SI00 in only one
school, the University of New Hampshire.
The report also indicated that the cost of going i
to college is higher in the East and least expen
sive in the South and West. The NASULGC mem
bers with the highest in state tuitions are almost
all in the East, the report said. Of the 15, only
the University of .South Carolina is south of
Virginia. Three state schools in Virginia are
among the 15.
Fourteen of the members of the association
charge state residents $22 or less. All but the ‘
University of Connecticut are in the South or
Southwest. Sixteen of the members charge out- 1
of state residents $500 or less in tuition and re
quired fees for a year. Almost all of these arc
in the South or the West.
Most schools explain the fee increases as a re
suit of inadequate appropriations from the state
legislature and rising costs. The need for addi
tional revenue to finance expansion and construc
tion is often cited as a factor in increasing fees.

wrote, “I feel the only alterna
tive is to ask for a ban of the
Greek system from the Eastern
campus until satisfactory inves
tigation has taken place.
Eastern has three fraternities
and two sororities. One of the
fraternities has national affilia
tions. The others reportedly are
seeking such affiliation.
All five organizations received
Board of Trustees approval to
seek national affiliation in 1964.
The board’s approval was condi
tional, stipulating that the organi
zations must certify that they
have not joined a national so
ciety with restrictive membership
clauses in its constitution or by
laws.
The trustees also ordered the
school’s Greek chapters to re
main the sole agencies in deter
mining membership and initiation
eligibility.
