Tuition hikes loom

Some Georgia college and graduate students could see a big rate hike next year. The Athens Banner-Herald reports that the University Board of Regents is set to approve several tuition hikes today and tomorrow.

Now, graduate students across Georgia’s university system are gathering to protest the hikes.
