I know that, but it still doesn't explain why tuitions must increase yearly. In fact with the football team giving the Univ. so much (17 Mill, 10 Mill for aid), it would be an argument for tuition at the least to stay steady and financial aid to be easier to achieve. Neither happens. Tuitions rise every year and aid is not all that easy to get. So where does the money go?
Don't get me wrong, I love the Buckeyes and OSU and all, but I really think not just OSU but ALL major colleges that make big money need to show exactly where that money goes. After all, IT is still college, not the pros and education IS supposed to be the most important reason for these programs.
