Challenges in Higher Education

I think the main challenge is that of affordability. 25 years ago a person could make enough money to go to college by working part-time. Today, that is impossible.

The business of student loans has gotten out of hand.

i agree

I can not completly agree with the asumption that student loans are getting out of hand. I can agree things were different 25 years ago. Schools have raised tuition exponentially over that time period, but total household income has increased as well. The cause and effect is that fewer students are qualifying for Federal Grants and have had to take out more loans to cover the cost of their education.
