Tuition hike proposal
draws national fire
The recent recommendation made by the Committee for
Economic Development (CED) to double college tuition has
drawn sharp criticism from Student National Education Assn.
President Thomas Santesteban.
Speaking for 80,000 students on more than 1,000 college
and University campuses across the nation, Santesteban said i1
the report is accepted it could be another example of the
Nixon administration providing treatment without diagnosinc
the illness.
"Where were the students on the committee?" Santesteban
asked. "It is difficult for me to understand how a committee
can presume to make recommendations affecting the lives and
pocketbooks of millions of students and never seek their
opinions. The ineptness of this committee is evidenced by its
shortsightedness in its failure to recognize today's educational
needs.
Santesteban said he wanted to know what the chances are
of students finishing their educations if tuitions are doubled or
tripled. He said it would force students out of their planned
courses of study with no consideration of loans already taken
out for their future.
Students are the consumers of our national product,
education, acccording to the North Arizona University at
Flagstaff senior. He said he wanted to know why students
weren't considered a vital part of the committee. Students,
parents and educators are the only persons qualified to speak
to these needs, he said.
'This commission spent $400,000 on the study," he said.
"I shudder to think how many students could have been
educated for this amount of money. To get at the problem,
the money should have been spent on legislative efforts to
restructure the educational financing system."
He compared the proposal to the recent Russian wheat
deal, questioning whether the commission had considered the
far-reaching ramifications of its recommendation. He said he
thought it appeared the American public would be asked to
pay for an inequitable decision made by a few.
"Where are our vested rights as students?" he asked. "If we
are concerned on a national level about the education of
students today, lets put the entire program into perspective."
The report should be rejected according to Santesteban.
Any future attempts to analyze and develop the financial
structuring of education must include students, he said.
