Unless you've been living under a rock (or more likely, the library), you know 1) about the enrollment policy change where part-time Barnard students will be required to pay full tuition starting Fall '12 and 2) that people are extremely upset and understandably so.
For me, this is the first time I've had a major problem with my school since I wasn't around during the meal plan controversy. Personally, it won't affect me. I've never planned on taking a part-time course load—but that doesn't mean that I shouldn't listen or care.
