Leave it to higher ed to fark up correspondence classes

I paid $180 per class in the early 2000s to get credits. I mailed in assignments, no more than 3 a week. Now, the same class costs $904.70.

It's a g-d damned correspondence class. Tuition is $552, which is bad, considering these are 1 and 2 level classes, but the rest are fees for BS like "academic excellence." Tuition at UT Austin for extension classes is over $900 for such complicated topics as Macroeconomics.

Same class on Khan Academy? Free, or a sub $100 donation.
