Tuition costs are completely sanctioned by those who pay and those who condone that their children go into debt. grown children are led into this farce by teachers and parentswho simply refuse refuse to condone thought.

A college student at a $40,000 per year (that’s just tuition) school says she cannot do well when her nstructors are bad teachers, often often cannot understand their speaking language, which is not english, it’s a mangling of it, incurs debt while their parents simply shake their heads.

Imagine the debt they rack up while they refuse to demand quality for their investment.

That dowsnt’ even touch on the socialization (brainwashing ) they incur. They are taught to not think for their investment.

Marriage and family for these kids? after all of this, they are strapped to a job which serves to pay the tuition.

the smart kids are looking at what they want to do when they get into the working world and making their education work for them.

Two degrees cost me, with rom, board and a job with life long job options, $8,000 total. at state universities.

Equal to that now would be like at 180 cr or 6 yrs at a state school, what 100 g before room and board?

What in America inflates at that rate?

Kids need to rethink this and their dopey mothers who don’t look at cost per value need to step aside or assist in the decision making process.

just say NO to this.

It is the biggest rip off known, ever.

You are of course correct.

It used to be that American Institutions would not take advantage of people just because they are stupid.

This will be a lesson that will be hard for academia to undo. Before it got to this, there was a good reason to go to college - the downside cost was not enough to offset the potential upside of an education. If you ‘lost’ you simply moved on and considered it wasted time.

Now we have institutions upon institutions insisting that “education” is the best investment you can make in “yourself”.

Oh, these kids are getting a life-long education all right. The lessons come right out of their paycheck - nearly for life, if they are lucky enough to have one.

To be fair, you can’t “insist on quality” at a University. That’s something that a University is trusted to provide - it’s an American Institution, afterall. They have to have some accountability for what they fail to provide.

In the end all these kids are going to get the opportunity to discharge the debt in bankruptcy, and that will spell the end for these “Institutions”. There is no other way.
