Letter to the Editor: Vote NO on seg fee increase for Nat
By Molly Reppen and Alyson Sewell | Apr. 4, 2010As a first-year graduate student and teaching assistant at UW, I am incredibly concerned about the proposed increase in segregated fees that will be voted on during the April 12-14 ASM election. I am concerned not only because I will be a graduate student at UW for who-knows-how-long and therefore paying seg fees for who-knows-how-long, but mostly because UW has been steadily increasing students' segregated fees each year, making me fearful that by the time I get out of here, I will be spending over a quarter of my TA salary to pay for segregated fees (currently an average TA spends 9 percent of his or her annual salary on segregated fees).
