The misinformation in this thread is astounding. This is targeting graduate student tuition waivers: waivers given to students who are usually also receiving a stipend, who are almost never taking out loans to manage degree costs. It's likely that there is a better way for universities to quantify the net movement of money between student and institution, but to have lowly-paid graduate students bear the brunt of the change is unconscionable.

- heyitsguay 9y agoYou're right, it would've been more accurate to just say "graduate" instead of "PhD", I'll edit it. I don't think I mentioned undergrads though.
