Well done, Sewanee! I hope the colleges will follow Sewanee's leadership. We want education, not fancy faciliities like gym or spa or whatever else colleges are building to justify the high tuition costs.
I read about this on NPR. I think it's a great idea, I do hope it gets people talking and creates a movement. I'd love to see other universities cut back tuition rates. State schools are great, but it would be nice to know they aren't the only choice because of the price of much needed degrees. I am very passionate about education and would like to applaud Sewanee, but $40K a year is STILL a lot to pay. Everyone talks about changing the world but forget that it all starts with an education.
We're still talking over $40K/year all in (tuition, food, board, fees); but t0% less is better than 5% more. It is a very special school. Hope it works.
@Robosan0 Sewanee has fewer hidden costs than many schools. Sewanee has more options for growth and development than many schools. The school also offers many scholarships to many students. Many will not see the $40K price tag. We are a free nation, but it was struggled for, fought for, paid for in blood. Nothing of value is ever free. This will certanly help many.
Anybody know the title of the song? Please!

Although I couldn't afford to send my two sons to my alma mater, I applaud this move. Thanks for thinking of us VC McCardell.

This video is very well done and encouraging.
It would be interesting to include the price of tuition before and after.
