Perhaps parking tickets were not yielding State College enough income. They have taken their fleecing of the student body to new heights. State College has mailed me and a collection of my comrades a communiqué, stating that because I was "domiciled" in State College for the past year, they are entitled to 1.8 percent of my income.

I have no problem paying 1.8 percent of my income earned while I lived here. However, there is no way State College is entitled to 1.8 percent of income earned via a summer job I held while I was not living here. Does paying summer rent on an apartment I inhabit during the school year qualify me as being "domiciled" in State College over the summer? I think not. I paid taxes to the borough in which I was "domiciled" during the summer months.

This is double dipping, as far as I am concerned, and I refuse to take it. I encourage other angry students to ask State College why it thinks it is entitled to anything we earn while we aren't living here.
