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.

It seems everyone knows a college degree is important, but few have a plan to keep it affordable.

The scramble to get into college is going to be so terrible in the next few years that students are going to put up with almost anything, even an education.

When you're in college, everything seems much more important than it really is.

So if a college education is indispensable, the challenge as I see it is how to make it more accessible.

I think if you have to pay for your education, you worry very seriously about you're going to do when you've got your degree.

Don't ever dare to take your college as a matter of course - because, like democracy and freedom, many people you'll never know have broken their hearts to get it for you.

When people say that college isn't worthwhile and paying all this money isn't worthwhile, I really disagree. I think those experiences and those classes that may not necessarily seem applicable in the moment end up coming back to you time and time again.

Education is not just about going to school and getting a degree. It's about widening your knowledge and absorbing the truth about life.

It is possible to get an education at a university. It has been done; not often.
