That may be true for people who went to college a lifetime ago.
But given the exorbitant increase in tuition costs over that "lifetime," and the transformation of colleges during that "lifetime" into idiot factories that mainly teach racism and left wing indoctrination, I don't think the "lifetime" statistic has any relevance at all.
In fact, I think it's downright misleading, because it has nothing to do with the modern college experience.
900% increase since 1981
I’m sure governent meddling had nothing to
do with that.
