Misinformation about UC tuition increases

The UC Office of the President issued this advisory today (Nov. 22):

Contrary to misinformation circulating in the media and through social media, the UC regents meeting on Monday (Nov. 28) will not consider tuition increases for this academic year. No tuition action was ever planned for the November meeting.

A proposed expenditure budget for 2012-13, which will serve as the basis for UC’s funding request to the state, is the principal item up for action at this rescheduled meeting, to be held at four locations.

The agenda will allow for an expanded discussion period — increased from the usual 20 minutes to one hour — in which students and members of the public may voice their concerns and address comments to the board.

Items scheduled for discussion and action are posted online.
