Here's a hot take: One main reasons that college tuition is higher in 2022 than it was in 1972 is that over a 50-year time span the level of per student spending increased because people expect a lot more of contemporary colleges and that's totally reasonable on both counts. — PolitiTweet.org

@JakeAnbinder @rortybomb @_TimBarker Yeah, I don't think this does a lot to explain why tuition rose at the University of Arkansas — across a 40-year time horizon all kinds of schools started spending a lot more money on various things and charging the customers more is a pretty obvious way to get money. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the stuff that wasn't there in 1972 you could maybe get rid of (do schools need these DEI teams?) but some of it you couldn't — nobody would want to go to a college with no wifi or whatever. — PolitiTweet.org
