Why college tuition should increased?

Answer 1

The high cost of education helps the gap between the wealthy and the less fortunate grow larger and larger. Universities are businesses that understand that college graduates are more likely to get jobs that pay more, in turn attracting students to them. They understand that they hold the power to potentially better your life, and people are willing to invest a lot in that. As a business they are far more concerned with profits and not their ability to provide affordable education to the masses. In other words the need for a college to stay profitable is in direct competition of offering affordable education.

Lowering the cost of tuition would have a direct impact on the number of people who attend and graduate from college. It stands to create a larger more dynamic and diverse work force to handle today's ever growing technology and professional needs. Lowering the cost of tuition would have a direct impact on poverty. It would provide those who live in poverty and do not attend college for financial reasons a means of stepping out of the cycle of poverty and utilizing their talents and skills. It stands to better the quality of life for millions of people and advance our entire society in a positive direction.

Answer 2

Colleges exist in the real world and the real world is subjected to inflation. In order for colleges to sustain themselves and deliver the education required of them, they need more money each year or the same delivery the year before.
