Tuition Raise Appears
Really Little To Ask !
A&M students quite likely will find their semester tui
tion raised to $100 next fall. This may seem a tragic blow at
first, but we feel the increase would be a small price to pay
compared to financial burdens the state and its taxpayers
might shoulder.
The State Commission on Higher Education agreed Tues
day to ask for the tuition increase, which will need to be
passed by the legislature before enactment.
In addition, however, the commission raised approved
budgets to $162 million, raised salaries of college presidents
and added $800,000 to medical school appropriations.
The simple $50 tuition increase, if approved in January
by the new legislature, won’t start to finance these general
improvements.
It will, though, give the student a hand in seeking growth
and improvement. Also some of the load will be shared—
taxpayers will still carry the largest percentage, but at least
students will be assisting.
It seems to us the $50 tuition was a paltry price to pay
for the type education offered here or at any of Texas’ state-
supported college and universities.
Admittedly the proposed $50 increase would impose
financial hardships on some students, both here and at other
schools. But there are always means of hurdling these ob
stacles—at least temporarily.
There is far too much to gain and virtually nothing to
loose.

Stand up and be counted, Class
of ’64! Our fish year we were
told to stick together but this
year no one is telling us that.
We’re going to have to do it on
our own. Most of you think that
we’re getting a raw deal. All
right, maybe we are but let’s

and rockers haven’t gone to our
heads and that we still know
how to pull together.
We’ve been told since 1960 that
our class shows the most potent
ial of any class on the campus.
And it does. For once, juniors
had to work to even get one rock
er. This is different from the
past when being a junior meant
that you almost automatically got
two rockers because there wasn’t
anyone else to fill the job.
Is wearing black belts and jump
boots all that bad ? And who
shows himself in the better light,
the man who keeps doing his best
even when the chips are down, or
the man who whines at every
little setback ?
What would we have done if a
group of sophomores had gotten
together, not even necessarily the
whole class, and yelled, “Beat the
hell out of the Class of ’64?”
Think it over.

Outcrys of protest can be expected against any increase,
but we feel most students would take it in stride.

There can really be no logical argument against such an
increase.
