A panel from the Tennessee Board of Regents reviewed materials Wednesday that set the stage for modest tuition increases at a network of state colleges in the fall. During a special called meeting of the college system's Finance and Business Operations Committee, a top administrator indicated colleges including Middle Tennessee State University, Tennessee State University and Austin Peay State University would avoid raising tuition by more than 3 percent during the next academic year. Dale Sims, the board's vice chancellor for business and finance, presented early estimates of each college's jump in student-generated revenue, which comes from tuition and other student fees. Those estimates are based in part on requested funding from each institution and required employee pay raises.
