Raising fees is not a good thing, but it has to be done. I’d be willing to pay the extra (money) because (the education) is worth it. The struggling I’m doing now--it will be worth it in the end. I am concerned about more cutbacks. But I understand that administrators have to do the best that they can. I’m fortunate to have family support. But for those who aren’t fortunate enough, it can be a problem.

I registered the day (schedules) came out. But there is just an increase in students wanting to come to school. A lot more students are coming to (San Bernardino) Valley because they raised fees at Cal State.
