Tuition Tax Will Not Be Pursued

Carnegie Mellon University: "The Pittsburgh Council on Higher Education (PCHE) welcomes today's announcement by Mayor Ravenstahl that a tuition tax on students will no longer be pursued by the city as a revenue solution for the legacy challenges presented by its historically underfunded pension plans. PCHE has long acknowledged the seriousness of those challenges for the city and for city taxpayers, including many of our own students and employees. PCHE has recommended a broad-based coalition that will secure a long-term structural solution to these challenges. Based on today's announcement, PCHE welcomes the opportunity to partner with the city and others in such a collaborative endeavor."
