In the relentless pursuit of a degree, a student will spend thousands of dollars for the privilege of going to school. Those of us enrolled for summer quarter deserve the same facilities as are available during the rest of the year. Part of this goes for technical fees. Tuition is expensive. Housing for students is expensive, especially when students spend much of their time at school or studying instead of at work.
Food is expensive.
Not everyone can get loans or afford to pay for school out of their own pockets. With so many students enrolled at Western, one can only assume a lot of people are willing to scrape by for a few years in hope of bettering their lives. These people expect something in return for their sacrifices. Students face tuition, outrageous book prices and loss of income from jobs they must give up or cut hours at to attend school. If a student needs to use a computer, one should be available.
