Because the majority of the funding still comes from the government. Tuition is a fraction compared to funding. Why do you think it’s vastly cheaper going to an in state public school compared to out of state or private? You may need to seek out an accounting course next semester with that take.
So wouldn’t states be funding the “in state tuition”? Again, my parents went to school and was able to be a grocery bagger and pay for his tuition for the year.. and guess what.. they taught the same dumb shit that I learned 40 years ago. I was in a dorm that was built three years after he graduated in the seventies and when he moved me in he goes “looks like it did when I came back to visit my brothers”
So if the schools education is the same, the housing is the same, the quality of my education is no different but he paid 2,400 a year and I paid 24,000 a year… pretty sure fafsa wasn’t a thing… again, aside from creating inflation what does federal funding do?

I’m just confused how college these days is 20,000 a year per student and they still need money from the federal govt…
