<p>One provision snuck into the proposed bill (lines 666-668 in link below) that applies only to the Univ. of Florida allows UF to implement block differential tuition which would charge full time students the same tuition rate regardless of how many credits they enroll in up to 19. The reasoning is that a block tuition rate would encourage students to graduate quicker; what it really does is help increase revenue for UF to the tune of about $2 million extra per year.</p>
<p>The proposed bill must pass two more committees before even coming to a full state senate vote.</p>
