[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Part of the problem is that even college graduates don't necessarily make $100,000 per year (e.g., teachers, social workers). The ROI (which most people have to consider) isn't there for many. While an educated society is important, we need to really think about which jobs require a college education and which jobs can be taught with experience. (I'm not suggesting that teachers shouldn't have a BA). Making a BA a barrier for entry at the same time that college is so expensive, it a real problem. And to the PP who said that student loans are available -- there is a significant limit on the loans that a student can take out for undergrad; most of the loans are parent loans that not every parent is willing to take. [/quote] I think this is something people who have not gone through the process don't understand. A student can only take out $5000/year student loans. [/quote]
