This is the first article I’ve seen on the subject. I never hear about it on the radio and never on TV.

And this is a huge issue.

I find that when a child is told that he will be paying for his own school, creativity and expertise in the workings of the internet take over.

The major cause of tuition costs rising so ridiculously is the lack of consumerism.

I knew tuition cost was rising way quicker than the rate of inflation ten years ago.

Why are people not looking at this and saying no>

I hear parents complaining about what goes on, for instance, a son or daughter cannot understand the broken English of a professor or so, and cannot get a good grade (he certainly isn’t learning).

NO.

I would not pay $30,000 per year for that. NO

Another problem is college administrators seeing college as a form of wealth distribution. Charge everyone high rates, give scholarships and grants to selective students who are poor or meet “minority” definitions.
This makes it hard to compare costs because so many pay less than the official price tag. And those who pay the price tag are subsidizing the more PC demographic groups.
