In the meantime, tuition outpaces inflation 3x, administrator costs escalate, construction projects continue apace on every "higher-education" campus in the country, and financially shielded, tenured professors who have guaranteed retirement plans and have never started so much as a lemonade stand prepare our youth for the future. I mean,non-Ivy USC tuition is only 72k a year. Why not go for the fun and profit of the uni. Thanks, baby boomers. At least you have your guaranteed pensions. The world you made sucks for your kids, though. Bubble, meet pin.
