Are there provisions in the bill that would prevent tuition for an engineering degree at one of the SUNY campuses climbing to as high as $30,000 or $40,000 in 2010-11?
The Board is required to develop a tuition policy that is fair, equitable, and responsible. Fair means that we have input from constituents and that there is transparency and sensitivity to economic conditions. In addition, the legislation mandates that each campus consult with the student organization and get the recommendation of the college council before any recommendation can be forwarded to the Chancellor. Affordability will always be a top priority when determining tuition rates.
