Too much stuff on the fee hike
And besides, it really is a wonder why they are increasing fees
when everything else seems to just [b]NOT benefit the

In the decision to raise the tuition fees, all factors are
considered except for one: the students.
Yes, I agree that there will be more financial help for the needy
students, but it won't do anything for the students from
middle-income families who still struggle to pay for them
anyway.
And if they had really cared about the students, the very least
they could have done was to consult NUSSU in the discussions to
raise the fees. This is something that directly involves the
students, and they don't even bother consulting the students.
And don't tell me that this was due to an 'oversight', either. An
oversight is leaving your handphone at home. An oversight is
forgetting to bring your lecture notes. An oversight is not
increasing the tuition fees for the second year in a row without so
much as consulting the students before.
