Then don’t go to a super expensive school……… You think you’d be smart enough to guess that.
Tuition inflation is a systemic problem buddy. Blaming the individuals for daring to get an education isn’t helpful, and it isn’t ‘smart’.
Tuition has raised more than 600% since the 1980s, compared to only 115% overall inflation for other stuff in the United States.
It did not raise 600% because people are SO DUMB for wanting to go to school and just DIDN’T MAKE THE SMART DECISIONS, like you. -_-
My husband and I both went to “bargain” state schools. Between my graduate degree and his undergraduate degree—which our parents didn’t pay for—we had close to $100,000 in debt. And we both worked.
