A quality education costs money unlike USCjr. where to have to fail, you have to try.
Judging by your writing ability, whatever Clempson charged you (if indeed you went there) was way too much.

Typical Sic Willie and his BS. He KNOWS public services are mandated by federal law as a result of Clemson being the state’s land grant school. Every state has a land grant school and provides public services. Sic Willie doesn’t want you to know that. What endeavors is the Restoration Institute involved with? Another area Sic Willie doesn’t want you to know about. He wants you to think that they ONLY work on the Hunley. Does Sic Willie hate the Hunley? Not really, he just hates Glenn McConnell.
Interesting that Sic Willie knows the inflated value of 2013 dollars as 2013 is not yet half over. Must be his crystal ball. In order to compare apples to apples, how have tuitions at peer institutions risen in the same time frame? Is Sic Willie ignoring that?

Securing the Rock costs money, people.
Dude….you are consistently funny. Hats off .
Thank you, sir. Don’t forget to tip your waiter.

Why didn’t you write an article on USC’s 3.15% tuition increase?
I’d like to see that increase in the same 15 year context that was described above for purposes of comparison.
Maybe USC’s larger tuition hike would be news ordinarily, but ahem……

i don’t see how free enterprise would solve this particular problem, but i’m very open to hearing about it.
As to tuition it’s quite simple. If you withdraw all public funding from the university/state college system then no one will be able to afford it. If no one can afford classes one of two things will happen:
1. All Universities and colleges that receive state funding of any kind will go out of business because no one can afford to attend there schools. Of course private schools will take up some of the slack as the rich will always send there kids to school. People that can not afford to attend these schools will migrate to the huge number of schools that provide their teaching online, for free! (MIT, Harvard, Princeton). This will cause a dramatic decrease in the amount of money stolen from the pockets of graduates/learners which will create a massive influx in spending/saving thereby saving our way of life.
2. Administrators will see that the gravy boat has broken, the gravy train has jumped the tracks, however you want to put it. They will adapt. Many will retire. Some will continue on at lower wages. Many will drop their malpractice insurance creating a massive influx of available revenue to them which will enhance (not restore) their earnings to a reasonable level. Tuition levels drop thereby increasing the available number of students that can afford college. Further there is less need for tax dollars so, ideally, taxpayers would be able to pay less in taxes or future tax increases could be delayed.
Any way you look at it, the free market has all the contingencies built in by its very nature. If too many can’t afford it, adjustments will be made. Basic Math.
Have a Great Day!! :)

Next year the state government will likely pass the so-called Enterprise Act, giving Clemson more freedom to pursue its various construction projects. I believe you will then see the negative effects of free enterprise in higher education, where the key issues will not revolve around education, but which fast-food companies to invite to campus, which wireless plans to install in new dorms, and so on.

The tuition hike is due largely to the increase in aviation fuel.
