Harvard Students To Vote on Divestment From Israel in Inaugural HUA Election Survey
Striking Boston College students will vote next Tuesday on whether to accept a $240 tuition increase and end the walk-out that they began last Monday.
Students went on strike last Monday to protest an announced $500 tuition increase for next year.
The B. C. administration accepted Thursday a 19-point proposal of the student Undergraduate Government Committee which included limiting the tuition hike to $240, seating two students on the B. C. budget committee, and guaranteeing that no student will be forced to leave the school because of financial problems.
Besides protesting the high tuition at B. C., student body president Kevin R. Hackett said yesterday, strikers also have been attempting to demonstrate that a similar situation exists at private universities across the country.
Hackett and B. B. president Rev. W. Seavey Joyce will testify before a House subcomittee on education next week about the financial difficulties facing private colleges.
