Perhaps, but the real solution to making colleges and universities ‘affordable’ is ceasing with the practice that everyone should have a college degree and then placing stricter requirements on government and private college funds, etc. Having taught at a university for nearly a decade, whether a college is for profit or non-profit, everything revolves around the $$$$! Research how many actual students are paying verses those receiving Staffords, etc. End this sh** and colleges and universities will inherently have to reduce prices to compete for students and real $$$.

Nice "dangling participle" there!

I take it that you didn't teach English?

Schools should be required to endorse the loans made to their students. If the schools provide meaningless degrees and the student cannot pay, let the school pay back the loan.

I’m sorry, but why are the (R)N(C) ‘solutions’ MORE of what shouldn’t be??

Govt shouldn’t be in the ‘charity’ biz. Govt isn’t CHARITY, taxes are to pay for services for ALL.

Public XYZ wants to back, or donate....Go right ahead. Govt has NO (moral) authority to take from one to give to another for *any* reason.

They can’t even follow the dictates of the current Constitution (Fed & State), so why even expect their usurped powers to be any better/nobler?
