Buzzfeed article
some CLiffs...
Kid from Oakland transferred from Morehouse and is back at a Community College becuase he had racked up $60,000 in loans and would've graduated with this class had he stayed
his solution....
and also
Or maybe these students are leaving with mountains of debt is because tuition is sky-high and they should've looked into other places... the college did not make these students attend this College

The current system is only punishing "humans trying to get an education," he noted. And black students who attend HBCUs are on average leaving school with higher amounts of student debt because those institutions disproportionately receive lower amounts of funding and endowments.

Perhaps he should have paid attention during his high school math classes.

The reason you pay so much for school is that the government subsidizes student loans. When universities see guaranteed money they start offering retarded classes that get you nowhere in your personal career. If these schools were forced to contribute 50% of the student loan financing, you'd see these prices drop overnight.

First off, good on that billionaire and I am so happy for those young men.
But could you imagine Warren Buffet going to a HWCU men's school and doing that? Assuming one existed.
Entire cities would be burned to the ground.

That’s the problem with it, they will never be satisfied once you give them an inch

Can't say I blame him for being bitter.
How do you rack up $60K in student debt and wind up back in community college?

Endowment $135 million
but endowments come from alums so...

Everybody's "fair share" is zero.

I wonder if they are going to reimburse those that worked and paid their own way through?

Of course the little fricker started a gofundme asking for handouts to pay back his loans. Get a fricking job!
I'm still paying back the wife's $60k for a master's degree. And now she's talking about a doctorate.

or people who paid them off early
or what they'll reimburse for private students or those who went out of state v. in-state public
the argument that it's "fair" to just abolish all the debt doesn't really get into the fairness of the policy for those involved

I know how this guy feels. I sold a bitcoin back in the day for $800.
