Regent: A&M will help students with rise in tuition Continued from page 1 about the increase. "No needy student will go without?" Gibson said. "I think there needs to be some kind of insurance on that." Regent Douglas DeCluitt said he is satisfied the Board listened to and addressed student com plaints. Some graduate student com plaints are that students cannot afford the increase, do not want increased revenue used for un dergraduate concerns and do not ^vant graduate enrollment to de- * DeCluitt said the University will "go to great lengths" to as sist students and will use in creased revenue for graduate program upgrades. Graduate enrollment is not ex pected to decline, he said. Dr. E. Dean Gage, A&M's pro vost and vice president for aca demic affairs, outlined other rea sons A&M needs a graduate tuition hike. He said reasons include main taining quality of education, the shortfall in the Texas budget, pressure from the Texas Legis lature and the risk of Legislative penalties if tuition is not raised. Mobley said the portion of the cost of education paid by Texas students is low, and students should expect to pay a higher percentage of their education. "This may not be music to the ears of graduate students, but within a year of two they will be out in the world," Mobley said. "We're asking for an additional, short-term burden." The graduate rate hike propo sal calls for a $20 to $30 increase ? er semester credit hour for exas residents beginning Fall 1992. sti Non-resident graduate dents will pay $15 Tno K Z credit hour than the miniZ rate set by the Texas Higher Edu mlrm C ° or u d . inal |n8 Boa,| (HECB), which translates to $14 per credit hour. By Fall 1993, graduate tuitioi again will be raised for residen students from $30 per credi hour to double the minimuo rate set by the Texas Legislate at that time. In 1993, non-resident gradual tuition will be increased to $3 more per credit hour than ft HECB minimum at the time.
