[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The business term is "price discrimination" and extracting as much as possible from each tier of customer, based on their ability/willingness to pay. For example, international students pay full fare (not eligible fro financial aid). You see the same with airlines, and even movie theaters. Why does the same movie cost half the price when you see it during the weekday matinee compared to Friday night? It's the same movie after all.[/quote] Let’s bring it to an extreme: STEM, CS, and Econ students should be paying 3x as much, and humanities students 1/3. After all, those CS majors make for a very crowded airplane.[/quote]
