Clauss) Followup-To: sci.edu Distribution: usa Organization: University of Missouri - Rolla Lines: 18 I am looking for some information on comparative studies of the cost of providing a quality education in engineering and the sciences with respect to other disciplines. We have some legislators in our state who are laboring under some ridiculous assumptions in this area who need to be educated. I would like to do so, and what I need is factual evidence (based on quality programs) of the difference in costs between the scineces and other educational areas. I am especially interested in anything from well respected public institutions like the University of Texas and the University of Michigan which have greatly enhanced their national reputations in recent years. Please reply by e-mail; I will post a summary to the net. Thanks in advance, -- Fred Clauss INTERNET: fredc@isc.umr.edu (preferred) Intelligent Systems Center or fredc@umree.ee.umr.edu University of Missouri UUNET: {occrsh|sunarch}!umree!fredc Rolla, MO 65401 BITNET: S081192@UMRVMA
