We the undersigned are Nuclear Medicine Technology (NMT) students at UW-La Crosse request that the University stop the unfair charging of clinical experience fees.  Our final year of study takes place at a clinical site, which is contracted by UW-La Crosse.  As part of that contract UW-La Crosse pays the clinical site a fee approximately equal to 80% of the tuition we pay to the University.  Instead of using our tuition dollars to pay all of this fee, UW-La Crosses charges us a clinical experience fee.  The clinical experience fee is unfair because UW-La Crosse incurs virtually no expense for our education during our clinical year.   Since UW-La Crosse is not providing any educational service for us during this year, they should not be allowed to keep our tuition dollars to spend as they wish.  We respectfully request that the charging of these fees be discontinued beginning in the current academic year.

Finally someone is calling them out on this. UWL needs to get their act together and stop robbing students blind.

I am so tired of these hidden fees. It makes it impossible to afford school without taking out even more loans.

Total scam. You guys are doing 100% of the work at the hospital while the school collects a paycheck for doing nothing. Stop the greed.

Ridiculous that they charge us for services they dont even provide. Fix this now.

This is rediculous. We already pay enough for tuition it is just another way for the school to take our money when they arent even teaching us anything that year.

Straight up unfair. Being a NMT student is hard enough without having to pay extra for a clinical placement that the school barely manages to handle.
