Spending More Money Just To Make Less It should come to no surprise to many Americans that America’s current economic situation is in rough waters. America as a country is in trillions of dollars of debt and a portion of that debt comes from the nation’s collective student loans. According to Ron Lieber from the New York Times the nation’s collective student loan balance hits $1 trillion and continues to rise each year with the rise in student tuition. There needs to be put an end to this inflation in college tuition each year due to the fact that countless students have to pay for their educations. Many students have to take out loans and are going into several thousands of dollars of debt much of which they are not able to pay off
There are many challenges that students will face as they enter graduate level education, and one of those challenges will be staying motive and remembering why students purse a graduate degree. For some students, “graduate students suffer from insecurity, anxiety, and even boredom” (How To Succeed In Graduate School: A Guide For Students And Advisors , 1994).

Cost of Tuition at OU Planning for college is something that almost every high school student goes through and when done correctly it helps students to connect to the right educational options. Part of the planning process is looking at the cost associated with the respective colleges and universities they are interested in, and the fact the tuition costs for these colleges and universities continues to go up. There’s no escaping these costs either, because if you want to make a reasonable living in America than you are going to need a college degree. In the past 20 years, "tuition increased twice as fast as the overall cost of living (Larson, 63)." There is so much talk about college and the cost of going to school to get a degree that
For example, Lee notes that America has the second best percentage of people with degrees worldwide behind Australia, and that, “only 27 percent of Americans have a bachelor’s degree” (Lee 28). However, the journalist notes that only about a quarter of college students who start at a four year university, actually graduate with at least a bachelor’s degree within their first six years. In addition, the author debates that the tuition cost for college is extremely high, when more than half of the students can not finish their college requirements. Furthermore, Lee suggests that there are other resources to succeed in life without a degree. In the article, she shows that her hair colorist makes hundreds of thousands of dollars a year; who does not have a college degree.
The passage of the “Pick the Public’s Pocket No More” bill would lower college application rates, lower college graduation rates, and lower our country’s number of new college graduates for open positions in the work force. Without grants, many Americans would not be able to pursue college degrees because of the debt they would acquire financing their degree with loans alone. Federal grants allow young adults, who are the future of our country, to pursue a college degree without the full burden of college debts after graduation.

The Department of Education’s estimate, called the cost of attendance, which includes living expenses is $25,833 for in-state students and $41,244 for non Ohioans.” (Rabinowitz). Not all student-athletes are on a full ride scholarship, so just by providing them with $3,000 to $4,000 more from the athletic revenue would make a huge difference. People can argue that having a scholarship should be enough because its helping them pay for college and the university doesn’t really owe them anything, but when someone looks at the time and hours spent on the field as well as in the classroom you can see where someone would need the extra money just to get by. It’s not easy being a student-athlete, and adding the stress of having to come up with money just for their living expenses can be stressful. Student-athletes
Wealth is heavily concentrated in the top 1 percent of the U.S. population. 1. “The wealthiest 1 percent of the American population holds 34 percent of the total national wealth…Sixty percent of the American population holds less that 6 percent of the nation’s wealth” (Mantsios). 2. According to Forbes, there are 403 billionaires in the U.S., as of March 2010. b.
Although many average people are very thankful that the wealthy taxpayers pay more, it is also evident that wealthy taxpayers tend to whine when faced with increased tax brackets. But chances are they received their education at a lot lower price than students today are facing. Chances are that they have secure jobs that allow them to be unaware of the current economy’s hardships. Chances are that they were lucky enough to accumulate their wealth during times when it was much easier to build up their wealth. They happened to be in the right place at the right time.
