Reminds me of the “post racial” era folks claimed was happening when President Obama won. I hope we dont make the same mistake again.

There it is. They don’t care and sadly this is happening in other outlets too.

What happened to media training in specific subjects? Is this gone now? Similar stuff is happening regarding college costs vs price. Sheesh.

So i do think these conversations are important but we could argue among each other all we want. At the end of the day, parents everywhere are really hurting over this my family included. Lots of sacrifices that have to be made to help our children successfully graduate from college.

Then you have the folks who compare what happens here versus higher ed in other countries. In class we have time to explain where costs go but in families in private person to person conversations no one wants to hear that 80gs is a justified price for college.

Probably one of THE most controversial topics in families who have college going kids. I teach our finance course &it’s a hard topic for me to justify to my husband and other family members. It always comes down to what they are actually paying versus what they thought they were “supposed” to pay
