on TOL Hosts Special Event on Higher Education

I am an undergraduate student currently enrolled at Portland State University, so I was thrilled to hear that this live edition of TOL would be hosted in the student union at my school. I cannot speak for other State Universities, but as for PSU, I can't help but feel as though the university and its administration is only in it to make more money rather than promote student welfare. The number of bureaucratic hoops that students are made to jump through at these universities in order to get anything accomplished is overwhelming and extremely discouraging. By making education so difficult to access, it severely decreases social and economic diversity among students. Education should not only be for the wealthy, and students should not be forced into such deep debt in order to get a degree.
