Once classes are cut out of the budget, Eastern will see a reduc- tion in the quality of education. When the quality of education suffers, we all suffer. Less quality means less chance of getting a good job out of college, less chance of learning all you can about the field you want to go into. More class options at Eastern, simply put, means more quality and a better institution for higher education. Last year, Interim President Lou Hencken was not forced to cut money from the classroom budget and we expect him to continue with that notion into the next fiscal year. We believe the tuition increase is a good solution to the problem and that students should sooner pay a little more than to see part of their program cut. Each class represents a different angle to our education; something we may never have expected to learn or were glad when we finally did.
