“Students not only voted to tax themselves to pay for windpower for the student controlled buildings, but also taxed themselves to set up funds to invest in energy efficiency and solar, and agreed to a very large fee increase to build new academic buildings …”

I did not realize that students had so much disposable income these days. Or maybe the students, rich in idealism and generally low on cash, voted to spend mom and dad’s money.

It is always easier to be idealistic when you are not the one presented with the bill!
