We the people must stop the states from raising tuition and putting the money into the general fund.
In California the parents of college bound children are being looted. Every year for the last few years tuitions have gone up from 9 to 15%. This increase is laid on parents and paying students because they are the least likely to give up their education in protest. It is a dirty rotten trick, and the Senators are disingenous to say a tax break will fix the problem.
Meanwhile, over in Germany, students protest university fee increases. Also, in eastern Europe, private, fee-based higher education is growing and doing well. From what I am hearing, the future is not so certain for European "cheap" higher education.
Right you are, Hedgetrimmer. Why on earth do college tuition costs consistently exceed the rate of inflation? They have for years! Where is the money going? Is that it? The general fund? I would like to hear a complete answer to that, and so would a lot of people.
"Higher cost of higher education hurts U.S."
BUT IT'S CHEAPER FOR ILLEGALS!!! Gee, political correctness is really making this country "stronger".
This article is absolutely false. The tuition costs have risen, but the financial assistance has risen. College is the cheapest it's been in years.
This froma guy, btw, who has $65K in Grad School loans that need to be paid.
