They will definitely find other things to spend the additional money on, and Gerberding stated at least twice that he would still go ahead and eliminate most of the programs on the list. Before we advocate any raises in tuition we should ask for guarantees from the university that at least some of this money will be used to support us and other similar programs. Otherwise our students will end up losing twice -- there won't be a Slavic department and they will pay more money for much inferior education.
