This policy stopped i think yr2000. tuition fees started to increase sem after sem...




commuting way back then (i believe we went to MIT on the same time period) was way way different from the situation nowadays... it has gone from bad to worst! pollution, traffic, safety, etc...
That's a downer. Oh well. Time to tighten the belt and suck it up.

OT: I think my grades at the time I left is still ok (barely). I've learned a lot more theories and tech since then. Hopefully it'll be easier for me this time around. How much is a typical 20-22 unit semester now?

Also, are public buses and jeepneys allowed on the Coastal Road/Expressway? The Coastal Road wasn't done yet the last time I remembered it. Actually, I remember it done when I visited in 1994. But, I can't recall if there were buses and jeepneys allowed on it. We took a taxi.
