I read an article the other day that said that most college students no longer graduate in 4 years, but go 5-6 years to get an undergraduate degree. I've also heard about students using their loan money to live to a higher standard (you know, the one that their parents, who gave them everything, established for them?) And why is it now that everyone has to go to college? The world still needs trades people, but I suspect that parents would be appalled if anyone dared to suggest that their child was not college material. The teachers and adminstrators would likely be sued. I like the English model of kids taking a "gap year" between HS and College. Let the little dears go out and work for a year and gain some maturity and perspective. And, then let them work their way through college. It use d to be that attending college was a privledge, not a right.
