So you can't afford $2 over a 4 year program? Wow. We're not asking for a million dollars like the "metro pass" levy is.

It's funny though because last time we were campaigning we had to fight a similar attitude on campus. Levy? Wtf? NO WAY! Some people did change their minds when we told them we only wanted 25cents per semester.
