[quote=Anonymous]Like gaming USN&WR, this is all about getting colleges trying to game the system. They are just looking for headlines. As a person in the middle of the barbell, I hate the whole thing. I have responsibly tried to save for college. I make more than the vast majority of Americans - I don't want anyone's pity. But how about slowing the pace of tuition growth for everyone rather than only benefitting lower income people. The joke is that for many of these schools, they are freezing out a lot of their loyal alums who are doing very, very well but not great so can't afford to send their kids to their alma maters. All the headlines are about alums of top schools making millions but most of them are actually at the middle of the barbell. The other big problem is that class sizes are basically staying the same but the number of kids applying keeps growing. Supply and demand. Which is why schools that used to be meh are now more in demand.[/quote]
