So my tuition goes up another 6.4%. Okay... why?"Well inflation..."
No, the CPI last year was -0.4. So in real terms my tuition is going up 6.8%. If a more common inflation rate is something like 3.5% (as in, not during these economic times) then an increase of this magnitude would yield a real increase of about 3%. Raising tuition at these levels should not be a given every year without some justification.
So what the hell?

I received that letter on Studio class...
Well they raised tuition yet again this year at about 5.5%. It's sickening. Economy plummets but education gets more expensive...makes great sense. Taking money out of kids pockets is easier than figuring out how to save expenses. Bullies.
