      It used to be free in Australia. Then conservative governments decided to adopt the American model. The quality of education has suffered because university is now just marketed as a place to get your piece of paper. People pay, they expect the paper. So standards for passing are dropped so that everyone gets their “product”. So for us, the days of University as a place to produce informed, active and inquiring citizens has gone.

    How more universities don’t do this is an absolute shame. Graduating with debt after college is one of the biggest failures this country is leaving behind as a legacy of how higher education has become a financial burden, and, subsequently a long-term debt that in some cases costs more to obtain than you may benefit from.

      Sokrit lun because an educated society is a productive society? As much as you can all claim but muh free market and privilege you seem to forget that social welfare, healthcare and public education are services provided by the government paid for by our taxes, forcing students on debt would not be carried not just by them but also their families meaning their parents would carry their debt and even if they die those debts would also stay with them and even if they live through they will be forced to pay those debts even if they have families of their own thus perpetuating a cycle of poverty where every person is trapped in that.
      No developments will be put when students are put into debt, more of them will end up on Amazon warehouses forced to work on dirt poor wages to pay off those debts instead of working what they studied for.
      That statement of yours is the height of inhumanity that I have never seen since Stalin and Hitler and I will only hope that you get a reality check.

Just joking, but still man I can’t really see your point when we’re the richest nation in the world, and could just allocate our current spending away from the military. If we still for some reason cannot pay for it, increase corporate taxes, and for the tax brackets, increase the further on the wealthy, like those who make 300,000-500,000$ yearly, etc. also, what country are you from?

    These students will give back to the college in ways that will build success for the college. This is how a Christian college does it to be a blessing in this troubled times. The university worldwide should learn from them.❤❤❤❤❤

      They got something better than what money can buy: The ability to hold their head up high, knowing that they worked on their own for every bit of their success today!
      P.S. Each student only owed around $2.26k on average, so if they paid for all that upfront, it would still hurt but probably not massively.

    God I wish my private HBCU will do this when it’s time for us to graduate… we have gone through so much during this pandemic… so many mental breakdowns from my classmates. But we still made it through to the next phase. I’d be so happy if this were to happen for us too 😭

    This just saved so many people long term stress.
    Friends of mine, close to mid-late 30s, are just getting out of debt. NY to live is expensive enough, the unreal expectations of $50,000 a semister as a personal example ;for me to make what i owe, is like an invisible mortgage.
    I know people who will be in major debt who are walking panic attacks at times from it.
    Paying to make a better, smarter, country, peers, society, whatever it might be shouldn't cost as much as it does[shouldn't cost anything, some nations thrive on unmotivated, uneducated, stressed people from pharmaucal companies, the school itself, vulnerability is good for many major/not so major -aspects of life. And this is a wackado status quo.
    College is less and less what it was, and harder to afford. With technology, being good it can make schools ramp prices up ;that is on the university to be wise about where $ goes
    But all college really is for most pepple is sitting in a room or looking at 15 faces in a chat room.
    This makea me feel so good.
