[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]New building doesn't affect tuition. It's funded by donors to the capital campaign, not through tuition. If anything, it can help keep ongoing annual costs in check, because newer buildings requires less ongoing maintenance than older buildings, and there may well be some cost efficiencies from a consolidated campus. Some on here seem determined to believe that this decision is an injustice being deliberately perpetrated against them or people like them. It really isn't.[/quote] [b] Yes, I keep telling DH we can save money by building a new addition onto our home. [/b] I don't really care at the end of the day. I don't like the message sent to the kids -- because it is the message -- that any amount on their "education" is OK. Responsible stewardship and allocation of resources -- well, excuse me but I don't think that is the message here.[/quote] Actually the parallel would be, it is better to build a new house than to try to maintain this 200 year old house. Please, let's use proper equivalences. [/quote]
