Tuition is rising at San Jose State to: get us "great partnership deals" on new equipment like expensive teleconference TVs or smartboards that are rarely used.

Tuition is rising at San Jose State to: get us "great partnership deals" on new equipment like expensive teleconference TVs or smartboards that are rarely used. I have had CS professors who struggle to get their computers on the projector because of old worn-out bulbs while math professors get rooms with smartboards they don't even use, and similar. Tuition rises because of bogus costs and needs that aren't needs at all or because of overspending on poorly used/misused equipment that is sorely mismanaged. I could ramble on and on about problems I've seen first-hand, but rising tuition is a serious issue not only because of costs being higher but also because schools are just plain casually misusing/abusing the money in the first place, some even carelessly.
