As a college student first at Mt. Hood Community College and now at Portland State University living on campus, I'm quite frustrated by the required travel to Salem to talk to my representatives about tuition costs. I think that all the students of PSU would have a lot easier time accessing their representatives if they were at home during the legislative session. I know that the student government on campus would definitely take advantage of the savings in travel costs and ease of access.
