College Graduates:
Cheaper, Faster, Worse
During high school many seniors realize the true costs of college and the lack of family aid, financial aid, and scholarships available to compensate. Students are often left trying to work through college and then pay off sizable debts. Approximately 82% of bachelor degree recipients in 1993 had unpaid education debt in 1994, with 61% of those graduates still having unpaid loans in 1997. A surprising number of students have found two year colleges a cheaper, faster alternative to the traditionally expensive four year university. The long term consequences of this alternative are rarely taken to account when seeing the short term gains of a two year education. The cutbacks in financial support that federal and local governments have made towards universities will eventually degrade computer science in The United States.
