New NSU president takes office By Cathy SpauldingPhoenix Staff Writer NSU is raising its tuition and fees by 9.4 percent, barely above the state average tuition increase. Betz said that even with the increase, NSU costs are “well below the national average and far below the regional average.”
He said he wants to remind cost-conscious students their college “is an investment in the future.” He said people with a college degree could earn $1 million more over their lifetime than if they only had a high school education. “We have to find ways to keep costs as low as possible, but if we dilute academic excellence, we are cheating ourselves, which means we have to pay faculty, pay staff and make sure the roof doesn’t leak,” he said.
