College is supposed to a place where we find ourselves, make life long friends, and get a degree to (hopefully) secure a well paying job. Right now, tuition for attending a four-year institution is insane. Since 2011, the average annual tuition at a four-year college has increased from $22,074 to $30,031 this year. After the last few years of inflation raising other costs across the board to catch up, that rate of increase has leveled off — for now. But costs keep rising, and they are especially high for out-of-state public schools and private institutions. Everyone is wondering if college is still worth it? Today, we are going to take a look at some arguments from the left and the right, and then I'll give you my take.
