Summer of 75, I don't remember any stinking ceiling fan in my north gate dorm
room.

Spildo,
I spent one summer session at TAMU. I remember paying about $45 bucks total to
stay in a non air-conditioned dorm at north gate. It was hot. I would take a
cold shower and hop in the top bunk under the ceiling fan, still wet, to sleep
cool.

I think I still have all those bills for room, board and tuition and Mom's
house. Seems like the first one was around $700 and the last one around $850.
The tuition was $4/hour, but the fees went up a lot while we were there.

I found a receipt for my last semester, fall of 77, under $300 bucks, I lived
off campus.
As a comparison, the last year of my youngest daughter’s undergrad at Brandeis
U. in Boston, 2014-15, was $56K.
Not including airfares… All my daughters’ graduate degrees were on them!
TAMU is still a bargain!
And TAMU education enabled me to live this life. And no college debts. God
bless TAMU!

Yeah, college inflation rates are higher than overall inflation. I seem to
recall a semester of tuition, room, and board, was a total of around $800?

Dean,
Inflation, tuition was $4 per credit hour in 1975. It's now 125 times that.
