"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

yeah, there are a lot of colleges who are needing to make that tuition jump. A bunch of European universities are going that route and since there are some governors who are fuckwads, there will be a lot of state universities going that route too.

Penn State just had half its state appropriations cut.

I am curious if the students who are enrolled in a program and attending suddenly have to 15 times as much too. I'd assume yes, but if I made a decision to go to school based on $1700 and then suddenly had to pay $29,000 the next year, I might not be able to do it.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

NYU once raised tuition between semesters.

That one was pretty ugly.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

There was a similar but more desperate ruckus when the University of the West Indies started charging, period. Those quantum leaps are no shit.

Someone grab Cass before she goes to Mozambique.

She can't, she has plans for the next two weekends in a row.

I ate half an avocado sprinkled with salt with a spoon

I just had dinner, and that sounds FANTASTIC.

I seriously have dreamt of those avocados. So goddamn good.

You just say that because you've never had the buttery goodness of a fresh-from-the-tree Jamaican pear.

I once had avocado "fries".

Slicese of avocado, lightly breaded, fried quickly... litle crispy outside, warm and melty inside. They were wooooonderful.

You talking to me, ita? Fully admit never being to Jamaica. My sole experience with sublime avocados was Moz. FOOTBALLS OF NOMNESS. Rest of the time it was domestic US: US southwest and now US NE. Which sucks, frankly. Even for guac.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I'm pretty sure I disclaimed 2G1C.

My memory is that you said you weren't clicking on the link. That was enough warning for me. I've manage to avoid seeing it thus far.
