Weaver went on to cemment, "We do not consider that a self- liquidating plan for financing resi dence halls is satisfactory because it makes it necessary for the stu dents to pay for the bulidings which will be used for future generaions and it works against keeping the cost of education as low as possible, which should be the objective of a state university. "We should be relieved of this burden by the State paying for the buildings or by the State taking over the cost of maintenance and operation in residence halls. The latter is preferable."
