Looks like a lot of out of state students may be in our college and university system future. In college I recall folks from out of state telling me it was cheaper to pay out of state tuition here than from their home state. I wonder if this will have a ripple effect at other university systems? Like UT and TBR, or whatever they end up being.

And maybe more next year...
Another hike next year?
UC President Mark Yudof said Wednesday he couldn’t rule out raising student fees again
