Ripping Off Our Students

Helping Students Instead of Banks

financial interests above the interests of their neediest
students.

What one sees in area after area is the passing forward of debts to the next generation. Whereas most university systems see students as future contributors to their societies, ours sees its students as debtors to be loaded down not only with tuition debts, but all sorts of other future economic obligations that of course put even their retirement incomes in jeopardy.

What this NY Times editorial hits is merely the tip of a massive iceberg of the terrible depredations of banks and credit card operations on most hard-pressed Americans!

Enough already!
