Action By Tuition Coalition

"Fredericton, NB – A group of students from St. Thomas University and the University of New Brunswick are taking action on tuition fee and debt crisis in New Brunswick. Calling themselves the Coalition for Accessible and Affordable Education, they are organizing and promoting an upcoming educational forum on campus entitled the Slash Fees Forum, slated for next week.

'Look at other provinces like Newfoundland and Quebec, they have the lowest university tuition fees in the country, but they have more active student movements; we need that here in New Brunswick' stated Craig Mazerolle, second year St. Thomas Student and On-Campus Rep. 'We need to engage more students in a renewed effort to tackle the tuition fee crisis in this province.'"
