Chancellor Charles Reed is calling for a midyear tuition hike of 5 percent for undergraduates, cre- dential candidates and graduate students. That would mean undergraduate students would pay $2,220 for the spring semester, up from $2,115 this fall. Reed is also recommending an additional 10 per- cent increase starting in fall 2011. University trustees are expected to vote on the tuition hikes at their meeting in Long Beach next month. CSU has raised tuition four times since 2007, as it struggles with a drop in state funding. University officials tell the San Francisco Chron- icle the proposed increases for this year and next fall would help restore thousands of courses and expand services. ‘‘Last year, we did not serve our students well, Daily News photo by Chip Thompson US Army Chief Warrant Officer, Ret., Mike Roulier presents a program of patriotic music as a tribute to the armed forces Saturday evening at North Valley Catholic Social Services’ Make a Difference Lobster Feed at the Tehama District Fairground. to help families improve their health and job skills.
