BU's Daily Free Press Returns
Daily Free Press gets online facelift. Have a look-see.
Top Story: Two-year long salary freeze is lifted. It's deserved, says the DFP editorial board.
SEE ALSO: Tution increases are on hold. "But don't get your hopes up," reports DFP staffer Patrick Gillooly.
"BU officials say the lack of a letter does not mean tuition will stay the same for 2004-2005. Students should receive the yearly mailing sometime in late February or early March, President ad interim Aram Chobanian said Friday.
According to one trustee, who spoke on condition of anonymity, the Trustees did discuss tuition increases at their annual full board meeting Jan. 8 but did not come to a resolution on the issue. The board member said the increase will most likely be somewhere around 5 percent, meaning tuition could increase from $27,042 to around $28,500..."
A consultation firm has been hired by the Board of Trustees: "President ad interim Aram Chobanian said Friday that he is pleased with the Board of Trustees' ad hoc committee on governance's progress, despite questions raised about the process last week by a trustee."
The trustees are starting the year off right, is the other editorial.
BU Provost Dennis Berkey takes on the issue of grade inflation in the paper's op-ed pages.
