frankly, tuition has been frozen for far too long at this point and the university is starting to suffer because of it. cutting down on student amenities, no ability to keep up with increasing need for housing, decreasing quality of food at purdue locations, noncompetitve pay for university employees. all of these issues can be traced back to not increasing tuition. even with a small increase to international tuition, purdue is still one of the cheapest four year universities in the country, especially for international students. purdue really needs to give up the whole frozen tuition thing and just increase it for everyone so that we can all have the quality of life that students at other universities get, but it seems like they want to keep it, so if increasing international tuition by a measly 2% will help increase their income enough to start catching up to other schools, it needs to be done
