What higher education model is best for our nation’s graduates and taxpayers?

Over the last 30 years a four-year degree has increased over one-thousand percent. Moreover, pursuing an advanced education is at an all-time high. Most public colleges and universities have experienced a drop in state funding; leaving it is up to the institution to make up the difference in fees. In most cases, this means higher tuition for a commodity that’s already too expensive.
