#Scandalous

[han :) @stilwell_24]

I just wanna know why I’m paying FULL PRICE tuition when my professors don’t even do zoom meetings, I was sent an introduction email and was told to buy my books and read them and do my assignments and that’s it. If I wanted to teach myself I wouldn’t have gone to college😒

[The whysohigh Podcast @whysohighshow]

Definitely in #agreement here. There need to be #policy #adjustments and #changes in society's thought process with regards to a #college #degree. Canceling all debt in one swift motion is a bandaid on a festering wound...

[Douglas A. Boneparth @dougboneparth]

It’s frightening to see how many people think cancelling student loan debt is some kind of silver bullet that will fix the myriad of problems that led to there being $1.6 trillion in student loan debt in the first place.

This is #good, but we must keep in mind that the problems we're facing with regards to #studentloan #debt and the #exploitation of #American #highereducation was created by the many congresses that preceded the @realDonaldTrump Era. Lower #tuition and ease bankruptcy restrictions

Americans are facing a health crisis AND a #studentdebtcrisis. We need politicians on both sides of the aisle to seriously address it.

[Thomas ‘TomSka’ Ridgewell @thetomska]

Haven’t felt this sad and angry for the youth of my country since they tripled tuition fees and saddled y’all with an impossibly steep student debt. The government proudly ignore petitions and the universities have now allocated those places so… It’s just fucked, I guess...

[Daily Trojan @dailytrojan]

OPINION: The University leadership once again demonstrated their apathy for the student body by maintaining the 3.5% tuition hike amid a global pandemic and an online semester.

[Chris, he's had a think @Socialist_Chris]

And I thought my generation were sold out with tuition fees.

I mean, we were. But this is a whole new level of bullshit.

We can't let this go. Ever. Thousands of futures depend on it.

[The New York Times @nytimes]

“Who wants to pay $25,000 a year for glorified Skype?” Incensed at paying face-to-face prices for a college education that's increasingly online, students and parents are demanding tuition rebates, increased financial aid and more. https://t.co/qpinkVTlUV

UT gave us an extension on paying tuition when they should’ve gave us a reduction on tuition

[Del. Robbyn Lewis @RobbynLewis46th]
