BOG approves tuition increase; WSU ranks 9th in dollar amount increases

The Wayne State University Board of Governors on June 22 approved a budget for fiscal year 2012 that includes a tuition increase. Facing a new Michigan executive budget that cut state funding of universities to mid-1960s levels, the Board of Governors voted to increase tuition 6.9 percent for undergraduates and 7.1 percent for graduate students. "I never expected that we would find our state appropriations cut by 15 percent," WSU President Allan Gilmour said. "This is tough, and it affects all parts of the university."
