YCT Yea. As college students, we are first hand victims of the astronomical tuition increases. Senator Seliger proposed SB 19 to freeze the 2016-2017 school year tuitions for the next four years. If the university were to meet several requirements, they would be eligible for a 1% tuition increase instead of 3% as the bill intended.
