Average cost, including room and board? $70,000 a year. And I would bet none of the protestors are in real majors (Engineering, math, biology/premed, computer science, etc.). Instead, they would be in:
- Area, Ethnic, Cultural, & Gender Studies
- Communication
- English Language and Literature
- Human Development and Family Studies
- Comparative Literature
- History
- General Studies
- Film/Cinema Studies

I cannot imagine spending $280,000 for one of these fluff degrees.
[Note: I see nothing wrong with a history degree for a military officer or for a few other real careers, but (1) I would not pay extra for the Ivy League credential to then slap on a single gold bar for O-1 pay, and (2) none of the protesting losers are likely to do anything patriotic in their lives, let alone serve America in our military.]

Their Hotel Management school is one of the best in the country.

The graduates do quite well.
