Rightly; students know that school is expensive and there are ways to pay your debt, just end up to a solid place and stya on track. I’m sick of hearing how everyone should absolve students of consequences of their actions. I am sure that if they spent for years working and not partying, they would be graduating a lot sooner.
There are schools that are tuition-free or only require work/study, plus the GI Bill, Voc Rehab, AmeriCorps, VISTA, loan forgiveness for joining the military or teaching and lots more.
The students aren’t actually the issue or the problem; that would be the cynical university administrators who use the students as conduits to amass massive amounts of personal wealth, which they then turn around and use to support (by and large) liberal political causes.
Personally, I’d authorize bankruptcy for student debtors, with a “clawback” provision to get the money back from the endowment funds of the universities which got that cash in the first place.
