Friend,

Am I inferring correctly that you are complaining about having to spend $3000 a year on fees and $0 on tuition at a flagship university? See what families in the Big 10 spend on public university tuition and fees for comparison. For example, a Illinois resident can expect to spend nearly $23,000 each year on tuition and fees alone at the University of Illinois.

Yours,
TulaneLSU

No doubt it is still the best deal. The subterfuge is what rubs me wrong. Why tell people a $1 hamburger is free with a $1 fee instead of just selling the $1 hamburger?

Illinois is a tier 1b public research institution, LSU has a bottom feeder endowment.
