Part of the reason RPI's cost of attendance is so high is so they can afford to give more financial awards to students who qualify academically for this school so they can attend even if they don't have the financial means... Think of it like taxes.
Also, I'd be interested to hear what specific consequences have occurred since President Jackson came to RPI, positive or negative.

This is funny to me. As a student who relies on financial aid to be here (and most student DO rely on some amount of aid), I can say that increasing costs significantly every year and having very high costs of attendance does NOT make it easier for me to attend. Sure, maybe I get more financial aid with it being so high, but if it was lower, I wouldn't need as much!
Just dropping by to say I saw the carpet, and admire the hack :) On the subject of Dr. Jackson, I'm keeping a reserved opinion, having only been here briefy. Having also wandered through the Troy building and creeped out a couple secretaries, I salute you for keeping the Administration on their toes.
