Ok, if they charge one penny in tuition for May Session it is a scam.

I just spent two hours looking through the courses being offered. Couldn’t find a single decent one, for Gen Ed or for a major. In fact, for the History department there isn’t a single on-campus course being offered this May. They are all “Individual Studies”, “Independent Studies”, self-directed research for your thesis, or, one-week classes that prepare you for the big (expensive) overseas trip (read professorial boondoggle).

If you live off campus, you very much want to take a class May session as your housing is in effect free, along with the free tuition. But it seems the school really doesn’t want you to take a class, probably because the teachers are all on salary and don’t see the incentive to teach a meaningful May session class.

Another ten years and the entire collegiate experience will be exposed as just a slightly more subtle scam.
