Better Support for Fellows

• NSF report on how MIT is illegally charging tuition to NSF fellows (April 2022)
• "End the process of paying back part of your stipend to MIT when you win an external fellowship. This only happens at MIT due to some weird bureaucracy and our tuition being outrageously high (MIT doesn't allow an RAship that provides tuition but not stipend). The outcome is that we have to pay money out of our salary back to MIT."
