[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College isn't a right, it's a luxury good. There are many, many reasons it is unaffordable for qualified, motivated students: -low paying parental jobs (even if they are noble) -health care costs/medical emergencies -layoffs/unemployment/redirecting careers -caring for multiple generations, children, etc. There are also many, many ways to make it a reality - even if you aren't rich. [/quote] I agere with this, but it's a luxury good priced like a right. There's no sliding scale for Gucci. I wish tip top colleges would go tuition free and make kids pay for room and board (require to live on campus for two years). So everyone pays 20k a year. Save some millions on the FA office which would be completely eliminated. If you have to take on 80k of loans to go to Princeton, it's probably worth it. And many of these kids are making 20k a summer by their summer before junior year[/quote]
