Experimental and development sciences have skyrocketed tuition. Companies are willing to use testing at the academic levels and pay the universities for those studies along with the government but isn’t shared down to the students on pushing tuition higher and higher to get to the “good” sciences schools. Win win for the universities

Bottom line is all these amenities cost money. If people were forced to love in rat hole dorms, they would bitch. When they build something nice they bitch about tuition increases. You can't win.

I am not sure what the point of the article was, tbh. College coats money. We either pay for it through tuition or go the European route and have "free college" paid by high taxes. Also, what they dont tell you about the "free" Euro model is it is much harder to get accepted over there. Few people attend college there relative to the U.S.

In 1980 it was $120 per quarter/$240 out-of-state ($360/$720 for the academic year).
