THE COVER
At the Palma Hall's first floor lobby last May 18 1984.
Education Minister Jaime C. Lava joined a dialogue with UP students on the tuition fee increase proposal. The Education Minister's pre- sence was somehow a reminder that the UP is a tax-supported insti- tution in a developing country where many priorities compete for limited publlc funds. His coming to the heart of UP to talk with the students was an indication of the importance placed on their views.
The dialogue itself symbolized the value placed on rational discus- sion and cooperation for the resolution of University issues.
The tuition fee issue has already been the subject of so much public and private discussions, some of them very heated. The students, and their parents, are concerned about the added burden on family incomes.BL _just as legitimate is the view that the Univer- ltv, as subsidized, snould not bear alone the brunt of the soaring costs of educational services. The Diamond Jubilee just past had brought to the fore the sorry state of the UP's libraries,laboratories, and physical plant as well as of its faculty's remuneration. At pre- sent,85%of each student's tuition is subsidized by the government, and 15%by their parents. The difficult times warrants just a little more contribution from the students.
Minister Laya, as head of the committee created by President Marcos to study the financing of education in UP, came to reassure the students that their views wouldbetaken into consideration.But ' he also stressed that the proposed increase would reduce the Univer- sity's dependence on external funding and this enhance its jealously guarded autonomy.
For his part, USC Chairman Leandro Alejandro articulated the students' view that education is a right which the State must adequately provide for. (A month later, this view was raised in court by some students who petitioned for and got a temporary restraining order stopping the implementation of the proposal for the first semester.I He also decried the inadeouacv of recent in- creases to the UP subsidy.
If anything, the dialogue brought the realization that the times are indeed difficult. That cooperation based on understanding is crucial.
