Yeah, never mind the fact that housing rates here have been going up by
about 7% per year... and never mind the fact that the increase in class siz=

means the financial aid budget is actually shrinking in relation to the
total tuition that needs paying... I like MIT, but sometimes the amount of
propaganda that comes out of the "news" office is on par with Fox "News".
