We all know this, but here's a good chart about how college tuition is completely outstripping average income. More here.

Loans are out of control. One of my students already has $80,000 in loans as an in-state student a public college.

A girl on my street is an honor student; her guidance counselor is pushing for her to apply to Harvard. Instead, she's going to a community college for two years, so she can qualify for the Star Scholarship program. The Star program is a NJ initiative. If you go to a community college for two years, they'll pay for your last two years at Rutgers. I'm hearing big enrollments next year at all sorts of community colleges.

Now will someone please tell me where this money is going? It's certainly not going to me.
