University Of California Students Protest 32 Percent Fee Hike

LOS ANGELES, CA - NOVEMBER 19: University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) students and supporters protest as the UC Board of Regents votes to approve a 32 percent tuition hike next year on November 19, 2009 in Los Angeles, California. Undergraduate fees for students at the California university system would be increasing by about $2,500. It is the second day that demonstrators, including students from other UC campuses, have gathered to try to dissuade the board from approving the proposed increase. Massive cuts to balance the state budget have squeezed education funds in California. (Photo by David McNew/Getty Images)
