You should cite some of the other reasons rather than just saying they exist. For example administrative staffing costs have risen dramatically over the last few decades. The upper management of universities now make CEO like wages. Universities are competing on amenities more than they are academics. Nice housing and recreational complexes are the norm while full time professors are all being replaced by adjuncts who aren’t paid a living wage. The economics are broken.
I did cite multiple pieces in my follow up comment because both of us were speaking in generalities.
While correct, the real problem came when they made banks unable to refuse college loans. Suddenly, colleges could set whatever price they wanted, and the banks had to agree. That skyrocketed costs and directly led to the current situation.
Of course, it really started even further back than that when we allowed education to be privately funded rather than a public good.
The fact that people don’t understand that more free education means a better life for everybody is really frustrating
We don’t bat an eye at having tax-funded libraries (well the GOP is starting to…) because we have internalized as a society that they’re a good thing. I have never understood why we can’t do the same with schools.
