The Financial Predicament of Higher Education John Doe, B.A., Must Pay His Bills—(End)

There is, then, no use in fooling ourselves: higher education will be paid for, directly or indirectly, either by the government (i.e., by the total taxpaying population) or by the individual beneficiaries of that education. There is no one else, in an age where Medici are excluded; and therefore other “solutions” are essentially illusory.
