[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Colleges are competing in the quality of dining fare, which is driving up fees. Of course, one does have to admit that PP's comment on cereal choice is idiotic.[/quote] Dorms are now luxury apartments, which also increases costs unnecessarily. [/quote] Sorry, this may be true at some residential colleges but not at most, and the tuition costs (list prices) are pretty uniform from High Point to Ivies. Any discussion of college cost has to start with basic economics and supply and demand. What any product costs to make has nothing to do with what it sells for. (Just ask the oil industry about that this week). As for expenses, the way colleges distribute financial aid has massively more impact on their bottom line than the expenses of meal plans and dorms (although I am not saying those things have no impact).[/quote]
