I think that more and more online colleges like WGU and Straightline will come along with more colleges failing in the next 10-20 years.
People just can't afford to send their kids to a state school even anymore. (URI is 12k tuition NOW!....that doesn't count all the other expenses)
I agree, Katya. My alma mater is a state school (UIUC) that now charges nearly $30,000 a year for tuition and room and board. Insanity!
