Wait, so between $327 and $587 (wonky 70s inflation) a semester in today's dollars? I'd have killed for that.

Between $327 and $587 per unit or credit, is extremely common for state universities. You generally have to be resident in the state for at least a year, to qualify.

For example, tuition at Stony Brook[1] costs $6,170 annually. At 30 credits a year (15 per semester), that's $205 per unit/credit.

You'll find that tuition in most state universities are around that range, across the country.

Mandatory fees add another $2,260 annually though. Doesn't really change your point, but it's not quite that cheap.
