Tuition for In-State Students Frozen for Sixth Consecutive Year

The University System of New Hampshire (USNH) Board of Trustees voted once again to freeze tuition for in-state students at all system colleges for the 2024-2025 academic year, marking the sixth consecutive year without an increase. When factoring in institutional financial aid, the freeze will make it less expensive on average for Granite State students to attend a USNH institution next year than it was in 2019.

Beyond UNH, the tuition freeze will remain in effect at both Keene State College and Plymouth State University, as well.

Call to Action

Faced with deep social injustice, some hear a clarion call to action. Alioune Sidi Mzeirigue ’22G, a self-described member of the Hratine former slave community in the Sahel region of Africa, nurtures a fiery passion to fight against the trampling of human rights. A native of Mauritania, Mzeirigue is among the inheritors of descent-based discrimination stemming from a traditional caste system and intergenerational slavery, a community locked into a cycle of poor education and limited opportunities beyond farming.

Poteet ’96 Preparing to Pilot Historic Space Mission

Lt. Col. Scott “Kidd” Poteet ’96, retired from the U.S. Air Force, has patrolled the Demilitarized Zone between North and South Korea, flown combat missions over Afghanistan, Bosnia, Kosovo and Iraq, and even soared with the Thunderbirds, the Air Force’s elite precision team. As the pilot for SpaceX’s Polaris Dawn mission, he will head closer to the moon than anyone has been since NASA’s Apollo missions of the 1970’s.
