Rumors welcome

I've heard some rumors these past few weeks that Virginia Tech may raise tuition mid year to deal with the state budget shortfall and cuts expected to be announced in mid to late October. Tech's company line is that everything's on the table and it's too early to know specifics. State departments, including public universities recently submitted plans to Richmond about how they would cope with cuts to general fund support of 5, 10 and 15 percent. More details should come available over the next month.

Anyone else hear anything about this? Let us know.

If I had a link to put in this post I would do this.
