Evil fees, Unions and other fears
Today is the last day to pay my tuition bill. The lines are going to be super long. I wonder if they’re open over lunch time.
But that’s not what has me twiddling my thumbs. This semester my darling university has decided to charge international students an exorbitant fee to fund the international program office (which doesn’t only serve international students mind you). Of course part of this fee goes to the lovely US government or maybe goes to do things the US government wants done…like tracking poor us.
So my union is protesting. So far about 240 graduate students have not paid the fee in protest.
But we can be academically withdrawn…of course once we pay the fee we’ll be reinstated – or so is the case usually. Oh…what else, they said they won’t charge us the late fee this time if we make it up later. Hmm…sounds good but the thing is I want this to be my last semeter. I don’t really want to jeopardize it in any way. Not paying the fee would just be one more worry on my plate which is already overflowing.
There are no easy decisions in life.

I will wander by my union office to see if they can convince me to see the error of my ways. And I’m hungry so I better put some money on my university debit card so I can get some food.
I hate the stupid fee. Do they think we’re made of money?? Do people know how much VISAs cost to come here. Fine, you don’t want international students any more. Just say so! Lock your borders…kick us all out. These underhanded tactics are super frustrating.
