College is expensive; I always knew that, and I wanted to make money, partially to spend a little of it here and there, but primarily for a college savings fund.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
College today is an expensive option without a lot of economies of scale, right, when you go and live at a college. So you have a system that's increasing its cost base by probably five percent a year.
We spend more than a million dollars a year on our colleges and university, and it is money well spent; but we must have education that fits not the few but the many for the business of life.
You have to have a lot of money to go to college. It's not cheap.
That's the value of a college education... I don't know anywhere in the world where you can make an investment and make that kind of return.
It seems everyone knows a college degree is important, but few have a plan to keep it affordable.
The cost of college education today is so high that many young people are giving up their dream of going to college, while many others are graduating deeply in debt.
A college degree is the key to realizing the American dream, well worth the financial sacrifice because it is supposed to open the door to a world of opportunity.
College is part of the American dream. It shouldn't be part of a financial nightmare for families.
My undergraduate education, at the City College in New York, was made possible only by the existence of that excellent free institution and the financial sacrifices of my parents.
People of my age who went to college, go into college, you know what it cost back then? Nothing or next to nothing. At the most, you had to work at Dairy Queen during the summer and that would pay for your college education.
