The University of Michiganâs Board of Regents passed the administrationâs 2020-21 budget in a 5-2 vote during a special meeting June 29, days after a 4-4 vote at their June 25 meeting had appeared to sink proposed increases in tuition and fees.
The approved budget includes a 1.9 percent increase in tuition for the Ann Arbor campus; a 3.9 percent increase for UM-Flint and UM-Dearborn; a 1.9 percent increase in room and board fees and a $50 COVID-19 student fee.
Dear subscribers,
Good evening,
Welcome to the July 5 edition of the Daily Digest. With increased news coming out regarding the fall semester, including tuition increases and on-campus plans, it is critical to stay updated with all the top news stories on campus and beyond. Thatâs why weâre here bringing you each weekâs top stories, straight to your inbox.
This week, the University of Michigan Board of Regents approve a new budget, various University usernames and passwords were leaked and the University modified fall semester application requirements.
A list of University of Michigan usernames and passwords making rounds in the University community Friday is a compilation of older, previously published lists from third-party data breaches, such as Chegg, Zynga, LinkedIn and others, according to an Information and Technology Services advisory.
No U-M systems or accounts were breached, but a large number of U-M email addresses were included in the list. ITS will reset a small number of passwords included on the list and will contact owners of those accounts to let them know what happened, the advisory said.
The University of Michigan has updated
various requirements for the fall application process, including test score, resume and letter of recommendation requirements, according to the admissions website.
Like in previous years, SAT or ACT test scores are required. Students who are unable to sit and submit a test by the deadline, however, can apply under a âtest flexibleâ option and are encouraged to submit any other standardized test, such as PSAT, PLAN, Pre-ACT or AP scores.
Despite guidelines put into place by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as a part of Michiganâs plan to reopen, many students are crowding bars and restaurants in Ann Arbor.
The Daily summer news editors Jasmin Lee and Sarah Payne talked to various students and local bar/restaurant staff to discuss overcrowding and other challenges faced by local restaurant workers in relation to COVID-19.
Over 40 University of Michigan students met virtually Tuesday night to discuss the possibility of student representation and voting rights on the Universityâs Board of Regents.
Organizers of the newly-formed Coalition to Elect Students to the Board of Regents said they were disappointed
to see the board vote to raise tuition and attach a COVID fee in a special meeting Monday without public comment.
