Why Princeton?

I have maintained that college graduates should, over the years, repay their alma mater the cost of educating them. My premises were, simply, that someone has to pay the bills, that the government should not, and that to distribute the bills among those who incur them is just; and it is a fact that if payment is made over a period of time, say twenty years, the burden is tolerable.
