This is in Wisconsin

inspiredbyme - didn't get many answers so I put it in a new category. I REALLY want to know what people think about this.

Answer 1

Charging extra to "expand and diversify its student body"?? What does that mean?
It is simply not right to charge students any fee not directly related to education.
Wouldn't it be good if universities in this day and age concentrated on EDUCATION rather than futile attempts at social engineering?

Answer 2

enable positioned it in numerous way: T-blouse for 4 years old will fee (for instance) 4.00 and an analogous layout T-blouse for 6 years old will fee 6.00. Why i won't be able to listen proceedings in this one? in case you seem at bra 36 B and 36 DD you could locate the version. i'm consider a surcharge of two kilos as some shops /organizations do it already and for far more beneficial huge difference!

Answer 3

It is very wrong to keep heaping road blocks into the way of middle class success.
Most people who want to go to college but cannot afford it take out loans.
Why should the students taking out loans have to take a higher loan to fund the education of someone else?
It's insane!

Answer 4

It's not fair to students, because university is already expensive enough to pay for.

Answer 5

No. And I dont think the parking, Gym, or health fees are fair either.

Answer 6

Didn't you ask this question this afternoon? Don't ask twice, that's lame.

Answer 7

NO
