While providing no evidence? Humanities for sure

No, but that doesn't mean they don't consistently go up. I figured most people knew that was true. Projects like the lazy river are one of the ways that universities justify constant fee increases. In other words, the WSJ is right.
This is a completely different arguement than you originally made. You were proven wrong so you changed the subject. This is an idea I could maybe get behind, but you blew all credibility by going full retard on something you knew absolutely nothing about.

Which one is more likely?
Have you ever considered you are just being defensive? I'm sorry, but LSU isn't infallible.

No, it isn't. It is the same argument.

Incorrect. Not sure where such a link could be tracked down. I suppose we could collect data by surveying LSU students over time, but that wouldn't fit within the scope of this thread, would it?

So maybe 5% of the student population in a single year voted to increase fees for all students forever? Seems fair.
So is trump not president to the people who decided not to vote?

LSU didn't vote for, or approve the lazy river. I know you're not faculty if you don't understand that basic difference
The student body did.
Fail again, imbecile.

People who had no possibility of voting will continue to pay for the facility long after the people who voted have graduated.

First you said the fee doesn't go away. That is not correct, people have proven that. Then you said schools fee increases out pace the need due to inflation, etc. The second part I believe, but the first part (that you started with and called people stupid for not believing you) is patently false.

So you think a degree from LSU is a joke. Clearly for that reason you would never allow you kids to go there. Remind me again why you care so much about a non-material fee increase?

A student referendum is simply an administrative tactic.

People who had no possibility of voting will be subject to the new tax laws that are subject to pass next week. I'm not sure of your point.

Uh, no. When did I say that? Somebody else said that, not me.

(1) This isn't limited to LSU. (2) It contributes to the rising costs of a college degree.

WSJ is trash.

False.
But keep trying to salvage something here. You just continue to embarrass yourself

Yes. There is an operational fee that gives students full access.
Your point?

That's a fair point. But I would argue that citizenship and higher education are not the same things.

The moment Txtiger realizes that throughout his entire life he has been subject to taxes and laws he never voted for.
ETA: yes life and higher education are different, but in this case they are very relatable. Students voted for a fee increase for a construction project. That is no different than a proposed tax increase to fund city construction projects.

No, it's true. It is used to provide justification for something they want to do. They drum up votes from the most involved students on campus who belong to student government and organizations. Most students don't vote in things like this, and if they understood the ramifications of the vote, they would probably vote "no."
