‘Pay for your program’ trend spreading

This article in InsideHigherEd.com gives Kansas University a mention as one of the schools to have jumped on the bandwagon for charging more tuition for certain kinds of degree programs.”The one-student, one-rate model is somewhat silently slipping away at many public universities nationwide, as institutions increasingly turn toward differential (read: higher) tuition rates for students pursuing specific majors, often those with higher costs of operation.”Just a few examples at KU: students pay an additional $13 per credit hour for courses in the journalism school, $16.20 for fine arts, $16.20 for education, and $81.10 for business.
