Do Academic Research Costs Drive Up Undergraduate Tuition?

Lehming, Rolf F.

Journal of College Science Teaching, v27 n2 p107-08 Nov 1997

A subsidy of research by tuition cannot be ruled out and might contribute to the persistently higher tuition of research universities. Arguments for and against this view are offered. (PVD)
