Volume LXIX, No. 100 Complete (UPI) Wire Service CHAPEL HILL, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1961 Offices in Graham Memorial Six Pages This Issue 1 f II V i Friday Against Raise In Tuition For UNC Students "I have always been against raising the tuition," said Con solidated University President William Friday this week in re action to recommendations that student tuition be raised. In the budget recommenda tions which the Advisory Budg et Commission presented to the General Assembly last Thurs day, it was advised that tuition be raised $25 per year for North Carolina students and $100 per year for out-of-staters. Friday Proposes Friday has proposed to the legislature that out-of-state students' tuition be raised $100 as a means to raise part of the money required by the C.U. to improve its facilities. Friday continued, "It's hard to say just how much the tui tion would be raised. The stu dents are already liquidating thriteen million dollars of debt, and the Commission added two more million to that . . . "Since that would be paid for by the students, it wouldn't be too much, but then at the same time you have to' start building up money to run the; student union (to be partly built with self -liquidating funds), and that might make an increase of twenty dollars in itself."
