The New York Times reports today that colleges have been engaging in back-door tuition increases through the use of student fees.  Students have been charged separately for everything from library usage, technology, health, and energy to athletics.  This has hurt students who haven't planned for these unexpected fees as well as those who receive scholarships that cover tuition, but not the exorbitant fees.  At UMass-Amherst the fees are five times more than the cost of tuition.  These fees are simply unfair to students trying to plan for the already ridiculous costs of a college education.
