That's not quite right, Michael. The flat fee would only be for fulltime tuition (i.e., 12 or more credit hours). Students taking two courses wouldn't be charged the same tuition as students taking six courses. ________________________________ From: michael sylvester [[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, September 23, 2010 3:50 AM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Subject: [tips] Florida considering block tuition
The governors of the State university system are considering a plan of charging students one flat fee per semester for courses.It would not matter if a student takes two courses or six courses,student will pay the same block tuition.This will eliminate payment based on credit hours.Some think it is a good idea,while others object. On the positive side -students will graduate sooner,but on the negative side-it discriminates against working class students and students who can only afford to take limited courses because of other constraints and obligations. Tell me what ya think? Michael "omnicentric" Sylvester,PhD Daytona Beach,Florida --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>.
