The average transcript cost, then, was $31,763; converting to 2006 dollars, to make parallel to the figures from the catalog cost analysis, Johnson writes, the average figure is $33,672. (The 2003-4 figure for mechanical engineering was $47,257.).
A pomelo is a large citrus fruit that grows throughout Southeast Asia and many islands of the South Pacific, including Tahiti and Fiji.
Grapefruits have a rather recent history, having been discovered in Barbados in the 18th century. Many botanists think the grapefruit was actually the result of a natural cross breeding which occurred between the orange and the pomelo, a citrus fruit that was brought from Indonesia to Barbados in the 17th century.
