When I went to college back 72-76 I can’t recall the numbers but it was cheap enough that I could afford it without debt, Parents helped now and then, and I lived with them and commuted, but the stories I read people ending up with 6 figure student debts? WTF? No wonder they have to invite in the math illiterate, I’d never sign up for that BS.
Community college 77-79 for allied medical field, used books were more expensive than tuition, between a part time job, a college roommate and a friendly butcher who always had a 19c a lb chicken sale, I made it thru fine.
Boy, were my neighbors happy when I stopped screaming at the rising sun every morning ;)
BA has fewer math/science requirements.
