Election 2020: GOP candidates for District 115 debate SIU, economic development, more
SIU needs to cut tuition costs to be a viable institution into the future, said House District 115 candidate Zach Meyer of Du Quoin at a recent forum hosted by the League of Women Voters in Carbondale. "What we need to do is lower tuition by $2,000," Meyer said. "Right now, the University of Kentucky, University of Indiana, University of Iowa, and SEMO all have lower tuition. SIU needs to be run like a business, and wherever they have a lower tuition rate, it makes it hard to compete."
