When I went to the University of Texas in the late 1970s, I lived at home and paid $45 per credit hour. A full load plus books was easy to handle and I left school with NO DEBT.

The gubmint getting involved in managing college loans coupled with the college's depending on the increased money it affords them is the problem.

Stop all subsidized student loans.

Require calculus for every degree.

Problem solved.

However, just for fun we could put most of the professors in dunce hats and then send them to the collective farms....

After all - it’s what they want.
