After ten years of planning and building, the School will pull together existing institutes, departments, and programs. The establishment of the School of Public Health should draw more funding and student talent, according to the University. Dr. Terrie “Fox” Wetle, associate dean of medicine for public health, will draw on her thirteen years of experience at Brown in her role as the dean of the new school.</p> Thu, 14 Feb 2013 19:37:53 +0000 Jehane Samaha 10369 at http://ripr.org http://ripr.org/post/brown-hikes-tuition-4-percent <p>Brown University will <a href="http://news.brown.edu/pressreleases/2013/02/corporation" target="_blank">increase tuition</a> and fees by four percent for the upcoming school year, for a grand total of $57,232.</p><p>The university plans to offset the cost hike with a 5.6 percent increase in financial aid, the fastest growing part of its budget.</p> Thu, 14 Feb 2013 16:08:46 +0000 Elisabeth Harrison 10344 at http://ripr.org Brown hikes tuition by 4 percent
