The Board of Regents recently approved a three percent increase in tuition at all University System of Georgia schools. This means students at Georgia Gwinnett College will pay about three dollars more per credit hour. For a student enrolled full-time with 12 credit hours per semester, they will pay $36 more for the term than in fall 2010. Also, the Board of Regents increased the system wide special institutional fee. For GGC, this fee will go up from $95 a semester to $245. Patch hit the campus of GGC to ask students what they thought about the price of their tuition going up.
Patch hit the streets... or more correctly, the hallways at Kanoheda Elementary School... and asked staff and guest readers at their Read Across America Day celebration what's their favorite children's book?
We went down to Lawrenceville Rings' Early Eve for Kids and asked visitors what resolutions they've made for the new year. Here's what your neighbors had to say.
Patch went to Downtown Lawrenceville to ask people what they think about the possibility of Gwinnett County police departments, including Lawrenceville, losing their rights to use radar guns starting January 1, 2011.
