I can't remember exactly what they were spending the money on... I think it might be something about our current 'technology' doesn't support the plus/minus system.

A lot of the students I spoke with were downright upset the university passed it even though the SGA shot it down.

A lot of upper-level classes require a C in order to pass and take the next classes, and many students fear that if they do bad at the beginning of the semester and work really hard to get the C to pass, they might end up with a C- and have to retake the course, which costs more money, and more time before graduation.

I personally don't like the system because of the reasons you stated, and I think they are planning on implementing it in the next Fall term.
