URI Rescinds Parking Fee

The University of Rhode island is rescinding a parking fee it planned to impose on graduate assistants.  The decision came just before around two-dozen graduate assistants held a protest to object to the 100-dollar fee.  They claim the fee would have been a violation of their collective bargaining agreement.  The union says graduate assistants only earn around 15-thousand-dollars a year, and the fee would be a pay cut.
