When you're in college, everything seems much more important than it really is.
Not many college students know what they want to do.
Access to a college degree is critical.
Security is not the meaning of my life. Great opportunities are worth the risk.
By making college unaffordable and student loans unbearable, we risk deterring our best and brightest from pursuing higher education and securing a good-paying job.
