Massive Fee Increases in the Offing for University of California Students

Story here; an excerpt:

The proposed mid-year increase to take effect in Spring 2010 would see tuition rise to $585 for resident undergraduates, and between $579 and $654 for resident graduate students (for the remainder of the year) and for 2010-11 tuition would rise to $1,344 for resident undergraduates, and between $1,332 and $1,506 for resident graduate students (for the full year).

These are fee increases, not tuition increases, contrary to the story's presentation.  But one imagines significant tuition increases are not far behind.

UPDATE:  John Fischer points out to me that there is no "tuition" in the UC system, only fees!

ANOTHER:  A couple of readers point out that the linked article misdescribes what are increases in the existing fees as the fee amounts.  If you follow the article's link to the UC press release, you can get a more accurate picture.
