Coalition Seeks to Build Statewide Alliance
By Melissa Anderson | October 9During last year's tuition battle, a group of UNC-Chapel Hill students formed the Coalition for Educational Access to fight against the increase. Their efforts failed, and the UNC Board of Governors approved a $600 tuition boost for UNC-CH and N.C. State University.
