Is encouraging crippling student debt a good move?
Graduates facing tougher times A major long-term study suggests recent graduates face a much tougher jobs market and harsher economic prospects than those from a decade before. < http://www.bbc.co.uk/go/em/fr/-/news/education-20237664 >
When I graduated in 1992 there were no tuition fees and the government was still issuing grants. What I would like to know is what Her Majesty’s Government has done with the astronomical quantities of money it is no longer paying to help students. Is encouraging crippling debt in our future workforce a sound economic position? I think not. Perhaps the economy would significantly benefit in the long term if graduates left University with little or no debt?
