My Academic Advisor indicates that I am not required to take the CSC 410A Java Programming class, so in the Spring I’ll take two other CS classes and one of the three Liberal Studies Colloquia or Public Affairs Colloquia courses that I need for the General Education requirement.
I notice that the online UIS tuition and fees have gone up by 17-20% per year for the last two years, from $158.50 per semester hour in the 2004-2005 school year to $185.00 for 2005-2006 and $226.00 for 2006-2007 year. The in-person tuition is rising as well, though at a slightly lower rate. Is the cost of education really rising that rapidly, and if so, why?
