Tuition November 2 2019 |

The high cost of tuition must be
mitigated. With estimates of trillions
of dollars in debt and no way to pay them off,
we are saddling our children with
unnecessary debt and thus forcing them to
get second and in some cases third jobs to
pay off the loans.
Teachers therefore are not able to devote
the time and energy to their students and
families. |

Therefore they are sacrificing their
talents just to provide food and housing.
What causes the high cost of tutition?
Many experts have different opinions,
however we do know that Universities need to find ways to pay less
attention to sports and more to the needs of
their student body. Legislators need to
legislate corrective measures and spend less
time bickering. Furthermore
the high cost of tuition is causing a
drop in college enrollment and thus choking
off the number of qualified future
teachers. Time magazine has posted an
article
How the Student Debt Complex Is Crushing the
Next Generation of Americans outlining
the effects of the tuition crisis in
America.
