The state's other publicly funded university did not raise tuition and fees for the second year in a row. Delaware State University students will pay $7,336 for in-state tuition and $15,962 for those outside Delaware. Still, a 1.9 percent increase is easily the smallest percentage increase in the past decade at UD, where students were sometimes hit with hikes of as much as 9.7 percent.
Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941 - History and Significance. The December 7, 1941 Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor was one of the great defining moments in history. A single carefully planned and well executed surprise attack that removed the United States Navy's battleship force as a possible threat to the Japanese Empire's southward expansion.
On the 65th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attacks, they present more parallels, and possibly lessons, for todayâs global war on terror. Within hours of the surprise attack in the early-morning hours of Dec. 7, 1941, more than 2,400 Americans were dead. Five of the eight battleships at the U.S. Fleetâs Pearl Harbor base were sunk or sinking, and the other battleships, as well as ships and Hawaii-based combat planes, were heavily damaged.
