David:

Yale does not charge student lab fees. They don't seem to make a lot of
sense to me, but that opinion probably serves more to flaunt my naivete than
anything else.

Best,
Trip

Any opinions expressed here are mine alone. If Yale wanted my opinion,
they'd tell me what it was.

David,
At the University of Regina, there used to be lab fees, but these were  
discontinued in the late 90s (prior to my arrival).  I believe part of  
the issue was that the university charged these fees, but they were  
not distributed as they should have been.

Good luck,
Deanne

Here at the University of North Texas every student who takes a foreign language
class pays a lab fee. It covers all the Lab expenses except my salary-and I'm
the only salaried employee. The Lab gets all the money and I have complete
control. I add up all our expenses, including our depreciation schedule, and
then divide it by the number of students we expect to enroll for the year. Right
now our semester fee is $8.24-but we had almost 8000 students enrolled fiscal
2007-08. Email me if you'd like more information.
