I hope you’re not suggesting that your tuition should go down the toilet. Facilities Management says they have received a few other complaints as well, and are meeting with the vendor to look at better options. Your tuition covers about 62% of the overall BC budget and 70% of it goes to instruction, student aid, and academic/research support. As for seat covers, they don’t protect against germs, and toilet seats generally have fewer germs than the door handle. If you are concerned about germs, the best defense is to wash your hands well and keep your hands away from your mouth and eyes.
