Nebraska Regents Vote on Tuition and Big Changes

Nebraska’s universities face a 4.25% tuition hike—marking the third straight year of increases—as the Board of Regents prepares to vote Thursday on a sweeping 2026-27 budget. Rising inflation is cited as the driver, but students recall last year’s 5% jump and a three-year flat rate during the pandemic. Beyond tuition, the board will finalize UNMC’s full ownership of Nebraska Medicine, consider naming H. Dele Davies as chancellor, review President Gold’s performance-based pay, approve major renovations at Selleck Quadrangle, and explore launching a new AI institute across the system. Big decisions ahead for the state’s flagship university system. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
