    Yes and no - if the university can no longer fill its ranks because their costs are too high, they will have to reduce costs. The reason it’s so expensive right now is because they have a captive audience that can’t walk away.

    Edit:

    I think part of the mindset that has to change is this idea that college is worth it no matter the cost.

    Say it louder for the people in the back!

      Homo Economicus represent! The rest of us are trying to live fulfilling lives as human beings and what education we choose is not just an economic decision.
