I congratulate Chad Kimes in his Tuesday letter for taking 15 or more credits and graduating in record pace, but my previous letter was meant to bring light to those who will suffer with this proposal.
While Kimes might be a superstar, whether Kimes or I represent a majority of engineering students cannot be proved.
But what is evident is block tuition inevitably only aids one type of student: the student taking 16 to 18 credits.
And this is not a fair system of tuition because if I don’t have time to take six classes with labs, hold a job and do research with time for leisure, why should I pay for classes I am not taking?
Editor's note: This letter refers to this letter.
