"I'm glad it didn't come out of student fees, which is often where speaker fees come out of. I'm really glad it wasn't student fees," Robinson said."It was not the best use of funds. There are other writers available to talk about the same topic at a much lower cost. And I think the university would have been better served going to some other writer if they really wanted to talk on this topic.
