Funding for schools will decrease as well as for higher education (the strides that the University of Maryland made will just be cut short).

Currently, I am a student at the University of Maryland. I went to a class on Monday and Tuesday because in order for me to graduate in May, I needed 1 credit in the CMST group. The college MADE me take Introduction to Desktop OS/Windows XP. Now, I asked if I could CLEP this and the answer was no. They wanted my $209.00 tuition plus computer fee for this 1 class is what it boiled down to. I wasn't too happy about that considering I have been socked with a $375.00 lab fee for
each and every 3 credit course I have taken this past year.
So anyway, I get out of the car and walk past a construction zone. The college is whining about enrollment being down, having no money, yet they are building a new building on campus. So, I asked what's up with the new building. I thought the college was broke. The answer I got was
well that they had money in bonds.
Now, who runs their finances this way? I call that irresponsibility in managing funds, and how can anyone call it anything else otherwise?
