Federal Employees Getting A 25% Discount At U of M

The University of Maryland's online University College rolls out a new discount program for federal employees. The school will offer a 25 percent discount on out-of-state tuition, at both the undergrad and graduate level. It applies to federal employees and their families, as long as they are not Maryland residents. The Office of Personnel Management worked out the deal. Director Katherine Archuleta tells agency HR officials, this is a way to close skill gaps and make federal employment more attractive. She says subject-matter experts from the federal government are helping to develop curricula for the school.

  2. Just look at the Federal pay scale and that should make employment attractive enough. It is a rotten deal for MD TAXPAYERS though picking up the tab for those least likely to need a handout.

  3. He's not going to like prison, where they only serve decaf.
