Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 2511443, member: 153"] We've been slashing federal grants for 2 decades now. If there was correlation, shouldn't tuition have come down? There have been lots of studies done on this. I would recommend looking at expenditures instead of tuition. Tuition is not the actual cost. Tuition can be higher than expenditure per student (at many privates) but most often it is lower (due to research grants and endowments and state subsidies, etc.). Are expenditures rising exponentially? If not, then this whole conversation is just noise. [/QUOTE]
