Until 2003, HUHS sponsored an optional dental plan for students. However, financed solely by premiums collected from students ($130 per year) and with a relatively generous benefit cap of $1,500, the HUHS student dental plan was consistently in the red. In an effort to limit losses, HUHS restructured the plan in 2004, increasing the premium to $225 and dramatically decreasing coverage to $400.

...Honorable Circuit Court is now open, pursuant to adjournment. Set down, keep quiet." Bailiff Kelso Rice drew his lean neck back into its high celluloid casing, settled his policeman's cap at a rakish angle, stowed a generous "chaw" of tobacco into the recesses of his oral cavity, dragged the spittoon into range with a clatter...
