Making it free isn’t the answer but we should all work together to make it affordable again. When an uncle of mine went to Cal Poly SLO 30 years ago, the full time tuition was only like $250 a quarter, now it’s like $3,000 a quarter. Public universities should have a $1,500 a semester/quarter tuition max and out of state tuition should not be more than $2,500 a semester/quarter and everyone should automatically get in state tuition after one year of living in the state. Let’s also not push as many people to go to college as a lot of people would be better off learning a trade instead. Let’s stop running schools like businesses.
