URI should be paying for their own shit with the ridiculous of money they are taking in from their students. Have you seen out-of-state tuition prices? Sweet Jesus. Why is up to the taxpayer to fund a University that you already have to pay to go for?

I'm totally for updating publicly funded dilapidating schools and Green economy bonds and will gladly vote yes for the other two.

It is a public university so it depends on tax dollars to supplement tuition.

They likely don’t know. They’re just in their feelings right now, and not happy that people disagree with them.

The thousands spent on consultancy to find a new president, the unneeded new engineering building, the entire football team and its millions worth of support services, the campus based ambulance service when the University is already served by South Kingstown ambulances, their “director of re-enrollment”, etc.
