I wonder how many of the "I'm a taxpayer and I already spend enough of my hard earned tax dollars on post-secondary education funding" crowd attended university in the 1970s and 80s?
Quote:
Where universities get their money (as % of total operating revenue):
Year
1977: 84.0% (Gov't funding); 13.7% (Tuition fees);
1987: 81.4% (Gov't funding); 16.3% (Tuition fees);
1997: 67.1% (Gov't funding); 29.0% (Tuition fees);
2007: 57.1% (Gov't funding); 34.2% (Tuition fees);
