College education costs {By R. L. Kohis " I \ [ Recently it was reported that 43 percent of the college graduating class of 1984 were in debt for school expenses when they graduated. The average debt for those who attended private colleges was $6,350 and $4,970 for those-who attended public colleges. The news has also reported the nearly 10 percent default rate by these college graduates in paying back their government loans. In 1986, some $6.9 billion of government educational loans were in default. The costs of attending college are increasing at rates more than double those of general inflation. During 1982-86, the consumer price index increased an average of about 4 percent annually. During these same years, tuition and dormitory costs at four-year public universities increased 10-11 percent annually; for private universities, the average annual increases were 12-13 percent. The following shows the changes in these education costs at four-year public universities measured against the medium family income: Avg. Tuition & Medium Income Percent College Dormitory Chgs. Os Households Costs Os Income 1970 $ 822 $ 8,734 9.4 1980 2,411 17,710 13.6 1985 5,038 23,618 21.3 Tuition and dormitory charges have continued to rise substantially. A good estimate would put 1988 costs at around 27 percent of the medium household incomes, Tuitions and room and board, of course, are not the only expenses in attending college. Books, clothing, travel and other expenses add substantially to the above totals. True, half of the U.S. households made more than the $23,618 medium income in 1985; it is also true that half made less! Currently, without some outside aid, a university education is beyond the reach of many middle-income American families, even at tax-supported public institutions. During the Civil War, concern over the costs and restricted nature of the then available college education led to the establishment in each state of a land grant college supported by state taxation. The purpose was to make meaningful higher education affordable for the children of ordinary working American families. This concept of educational opportunity was truly one of the great inventions of all time and a bright star in the crown of the American experiment. In recent years, college costs, like those of health and medicine, seem hooked to a runaway train. Federal work programs and loans to help college students increased from $1.6 billion in 1970 to $16.8 billion in 1986. This was in addition to the sharp increases of state tax support and gifts by private agencies. Most would agree that every businessman cannot be trusted to produce a quality product and price it reasonably without the policing of consumers in the market place. In medicine, government and insurance companies have moved to police the fees and practices of doctors and hospitals in order to restrain cost increases. It is also true that professors and college administrators need some outside policing of both product quality and price. Why have college costs risen so much more than general inflation? Has the educational process become bloated with overhead? Are teaching funds being diverted to other activities? Is teaching subsidizing research? If additional taxpayer help is needed, is the use of loans the right approach? There will be much gnashing of teeth by the educational establishment if it must answer such questions. However, the public has a responsibility to supervise the activities it supports.
