Since when do TAs get that benefit? Back when I was a TA, we just got $15 an hour* 15 hours a week.

Firstly, it depends on the major and university. Secondly, out of state tuition here is around $20k per semester...

Yeah yeah, I was in CS at Tech a while (~5 years) ago. I paid that out-of-state tuition for a semester.

I'm in ECE, but I don't think CS is different. From what I know, TAs are per-semester and not hourly contracts.
