[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our tuition costs keep rising and it appears more and more people are getting financial aid and most of them are going on nice spring breaks and we are staying in town to work. Something is wrong with this. And for those saying that annual fund doesn't go to financial aid - you are wrong. Attend the budget meetings and you can see that yes part of your donations to the annual fund and yes even your tuition payments DO in fact go to FA. I support FA but I truly believe families should pay their tuition in full first and any money that's left can go to vacations. If this means they don't go on vacation or spring break, then so be it. That is a choice they have to make. We are making that choice as a full paying family. Why is it wrong for us to expect others to make the same choices? [/quote]

Your anger is misplaced. Why are you angry that people identified schools that will give them enough FA that makes it possible for them to take a nice vacation? You should be angry at yourself for being willing to forego living. Traveling is as much a part of a learning experience as going to school. [/quote]
