Question

You are part of the student body at a university. The board of regents has decided to raise tuition, and they have given you a statement to present to the student body. Regents' message: We, the board of regents, have decided to raise your tuition $200 per credit. We did this to fund the construction of a new science building on campus. We will implement this tuition increase immediately. The regent's message places blame for the tuition increase on ______________.

Answer 1

Answer:

The construction of a new science building on campus.

Explanation:

In the message, the reason the board of regents gives for increasing the tuition is that they did it in order to fund the construction of a new science building on campus.

This implies that if there was no need to construct a new science building on campus, there would not have been an increase in tuition.

Therefore, the regent's message places blame for the tuition increase on the construction of a new science building on campus.
