Then her husband lost his job, and the
35、 plan fell apart. “I have two kids in college, and I want to say “come home,” but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Diana.The Smith family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid from the school, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum

A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to
38、 2007, while average family income rose just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade.“If we go on this way for another 25 years, we wont have an affordable system of higher education,” says Patrick M.
