Not since 1965
Tuition-free. Other costs, such as room and board, fees, etc., remained, well, costs. I entered in 1963 and was grandfathered in when they started charging tuition, which incidentally, was a quite substantial for that time $600/semester. I hear it is up a little now.
My tuition was $29,960 when I started and $34,900 by the time I finished. Thankfully, I didn't pay even close to all of it.

FYI for ECU
I might be missing it, but I don't see where the link discusses ECU's name.
Why we are called Pirates?

That's never stopped them before.

UTSA is the youngest University in CUSA. UAB is also 1969, but they have a history before 1969.

Wow. Mine was 5K a year when I matriculated in '89. Less than UT out of state tuition.
Hopefully the alleged increase in financial aid to offset tuition increases has proved to be true.
