On Saturday, January 15, Daniel Henninger stated on the Wall Street Journal editorial report that enrollment in America’s colleges and universities is down 1 million students since the pandemic began.
Today over 43 million people owe more than $1.7 Trillion in student debt.
According to educationaldata.org the average public university student borrows $30,000 to obtain a bachelor’s degree.
Many are wondering if it is still worth it especially when so many classes are online and students miss out that “typical college” experience so many young people hoped for.
