Show Notes
Marshall Universitys Board of Governors approved a 2.5% tuition increase for in-state students, starting fiscal year 2027. This move aims to maintain affordability while keeping costs below inflation rates. The university is doubling down on the Marshall For All program, covering full tuition for families earning less than $65,000 annually. This initiative is part of a four-year plan to address a $28 million deficit through the Save to Serve initiative, which involved a 5% annual reduction in supplies and services. Despite the deficit, the university managed to boost faculty salaries, demonstrating a commitment to balancing the budget and investing in people.
