The meeting will include a five-minute UA presentation by College sophomore Mitch Winston, the UA Tuition committee chairperson. At the meeting, the UA will outline its interest in keeping down the rate of tuition increase. Last year the rate of increase fell from 7.3 to 6.7 percent. College senior and UA Vice Chairperson Mike Feinberg said last night that the trend toward lower increases should continue. "We know the trustees care and that they'll listen to students," he said. The meeting kicks off the UA's annual letter writing campaign to the Trustees which is designed to demonstrate student interest and support of the UA's initiative. The meeting will be held today from 3:30 to 5 p.m. in the Tea Room of the Faculty Club and is open to students. -- Drew Zoller
