People in this State want everything for free. Look, State U tuition is NOTHING compared with a PRIVATE UNIVERSITY EDUCATION. Why didn’t you people think of the costs of raising and educating your children before you TOOK THAT ROLL IN THE HAY 18+ YEARS AGO???? Geez people. A successful life costs money. Grow up all of you! If you hadn’t squandered your hard earned bucks on homes which were beyond your means, multiple new shiny vehicles every few years, frivolous clothing purchases, big screen tvs and surround sound systems, vacations, dinners out, BEER, HBO/SHOWTIME/ and all the other premium cable/satellite products, sports tickets, boats, and all the other b******t you people p**s your money away on MAYBE YOU’D HAVE SOMETHING TO CONTRIBUTE TO YOUR CHILD’S EDUCATION NOW!!! It’s a concept perhaps your grandparents or great grandparents used to follow - it is called SAVING FOR THE FUTURE!

“Governor Crist on June 27 signed into law a tuition differential fee approved by the Legislature, but the law exempts families that currently have a Prepaid Plan contract from paying the fee now or in the future”

This directly from the Florida Prepaid web site. Once again the Palm Beach Post only reports what it wants you to know. I would’nt wrap a dead fish in this paper anymore.

Of course it’s fair. Have you seen the FAU campus lately? You’ll think you’re in the U.N. building.

I am probably the least racist guy who will ever right on this board, but that is not the issue. The issue is our State does not have to subsidize education for the enitre world.

In fact, I would rather see poor and/or minority kids from our own communities get a break, rather than foreign citizens who come here, establish a phoony residency for one year, and then enjoy a quality education in a paradisaic setting, at bargain rates which we underwrite.

Ok Jerk, Of course the Other Schools are going to Support the Increase!!!! How stupid do you think they are? COLLEGE IS A BUSINESS, not a free ride for students in this country, unfortunately.

Im surprised that he let such a small thing (8 universities) decide this fee Increase instead of what the PEOPLE attending these schools thought. Colleges already pull in an ubelievable amount of money.

CRIST YOUR PISSING ME OFF WITH THIS MOVE. Although many other moves you have made were great. Please dont let this be the start of a trend!!!
