Tax b baring, also referred to
a the "Robin Hood Plan," is
expected to work fur many years to
come. In about 10 years th money

Goulding is concerned wi th the
outcome. "They shouldn't try to
penalize in the process ofbringing
everyone up to our level."

in need of tbat money to better their

"If other schools can support the
