Solving The Student Loan Crisis

The student loan debt crisis has mushroomed into a national crisis, with 43 million Americans in debt for having gone to college. Their total debt is a whopping $1.3 trillion dollars. That's roughly 1 in 8 Americans that owes money for getting a higher education and trying to better himself or herself. The problem can no longer be approached at the individual level, with each person trying to figure out how to deal with the costs of higher education. We need a new national-level examination of the costs of higher education and how to fix the crisis. This book is for students, parents, and policy-makers.
