Debt by Degrees

Maybe we need to be willing to spend more and more of  our incomes and taxpayer dollars on school, or maybe we need to be  willing to pay educators and administrators significantly less, or maybe  we need to find ways to make colleges more productive places, which  would mean radically changing our idea of what going to college is all  about. Until America figures out its priorities, college kids are going  to have to keep running just to stand still.
