Germany Just Made College Tuition Free? Why Won't Our Black Political Class Fight For Free Tuition Here?
Is free tuition even possible?
Of course it is. It's not just possible, free tuition at the
nation's public colleges and universities would actually cost LESS than
the federal government now pays to those institutions, according
Department of Education stats quoted in two very useful articles by Jordan Weismann in The Atlantic in
2013 and
2014.
Public colleges and universities, he points out, account for 75% of
college grads while sub-prime for-profit colleges, which are basically
machines capture low-income students and walk them through applications
for subsidized guaranteed loans account for a tiny percentage of grads
but eat a full quarter of all the federal aid dollars.
