This week saw new and proposed changes in Arizona’s higher education system, with tuition in the spotlight.
For undocumented students in Arizona, some tuition relief may be on the way. A proposed Arizona Senate bill would grant in-state tuition to all students who graduated from an Arizona high school and lived in the state for at least two years. That includes undocumented students. The proposed bill passed the Arizona Senate Education Committee and will be considered by the state Senate.
A decade-old state proposition made it so undocumented students cannot access in-state tuition rates or financial aid. Currently, Arizona students in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program pay 150% of in-state tuition.

CUNY breaks faculty and staff contract, withholding promised pay raises
Last week, the City University of New York (CUNY) announced that it is indefinitely delaying “equity raises” to over 2,500 low-paid assistant staff and lecturers, amid the deepening pandemic-fueled financial crisis faced by the largest urban university system in the US. The decision, made by CUNY Chancellor Félix Matos Rodríguez, violates the latest worker contract agreements. It follows CUNY’s withholding of a promised 2 percent pay raise for faculty and staff in November, which also broke the contract, and the laying off of 2,800 adjunct faculty last summer.
