As anyone who has ever attended BU can tell you, protecting students is the last thing Bob Brown and the administration cares about. If they did care, grade deflation would not be so rampant, nor would tuition increases. Fact is, BU sees its students as nothing more than cash cows and it is noticeable in the way students and their families are treated. Wait until you graduate and see just how long it takes BU to ask for a donation. I am also convinced, by the sheer number of stories I have heard about this and from personal experience, that BU attracts students from middle class families with great financial aid offers only to make keeping the aid impossible.
