It's the fault of whomever decided that a college degree should cost as much as a house
To be fair, the cost of the house and the cost of a degree could be equal but at like 3,000 dollars.
A lot of public universities still aren't that expensive. It isn't something that someone can easily pay their way through anymore, but it's a far cry from what some private universities cost. I seriously don't get why people get saddled with insane debt for some of these mediocre private schools.
