The lab fee is hardly surprising, regardless of the class topic. Renting or using AV stuff is expensive as hell, and some interdisciplinary courses are not covered by a department or college's account. Certain supplies simply are not covered by the University the way they were in fatter economic times. With video rentals, readers, and other stuff, I'm surprised more of the classes I have taken don't have fees.
I wonder if Mr. Glenn read a syllabus of the class, or talked to someone who actually took it. There was a controversy with some reactionary think tank calling my school a hotbed of "socialist liberalism" based on class TITLES. When everyone discovered that the people had not read the syllabus, talked to the instructor, or knew anything about the subject matter, their credibility was slashed.
