College Tuition

Okay, bitch session. The colleges are BROKE, so they're raising tuition fees on all of the students forcing them to choose between a degree & huge debt or no degree and struggling to continue and not going after their dreams. Then, I hear on the local news that a college nearby is hiring a new football coach and going to pay them a million bucks. Something is very wrong with this picture! Why should starving students work 2-3 jobs and carry a full load to pay a coach? Coaches should be doing it because they love the game, not for $200k a year. There is nothing wrong in making them live off of about $70k a year. I bet the students would be more willing to pay the higher fees if they know the staff aren't getting rich off of them. The cost of living isn't that high!!! Most of the colleges have raised their fees as much as 40% per credit hour crying "we're broke" and turning around and paying their staff insane wages. Enroll at your own risk!
