Raw Deal
Students pay more, receive nothing
The Board
of Trustees has raised tuition for the upcoming school year
yet again.
Surprise, surprise.
Students will have the joy of paying 8.7 percent more for
tuition starting with the fall semester. This is an increase
of $1,300 a year for flat-rate students and $1,050 a year
for hourly rate students taking 15 hours a semester.

President
Bushs new welfare proposal will set aside $100 million
for programs intended to get single mothers on welfare to
marry. While the exact nature of the programs is not specified,
the possibilities for economically motivated marriages are
frightening.

It started with
hello.

rules extreme
By Sandy Stafford
Skiff Staff
While I realize
this may be a tad on the unpatriotic side, I have two words to say
about the current extent of airport security: Good grief.
I understand the need for heightened security, and I appreciate
efforts to keep planes safe. But some measures are becoming a little
ludicrous.

USF
actions incited by politics
By Jaime Walker
Senior Reporter
If Bill OReilly
had not opened his big mouth there would be no need for this column.
Students at the University of South Florida in Tampa would not be
gathered in the campus common areas calling for a faculty
strike.
