Proposal Would Limit UW System Tuition Hikes If Freeze Is Lifted

The Fair Future Tuition Act would limit how much the U-W System could increase tuition if the current freeze is lifted.  Republican Representative Dave Murphy says his measure would put protections in place for students.  Tuition has been frozen since 2013.  If passed, the University of Wisconsin Board of Regents could only increase the tuition for all students up to the rate of the consumer price index during the first year after the freeze is lifted.
