just a quick look so far.
-
Rick Perry's Plan: $10,000 for a B.A. - Room for Debate
Will a college degree that costs $2,500 a year be worth the paper it's printed on?It could be if the real cost is displaced. -
Perry's College Plan: It's Just a Start - Room for Debate
Governor Perry's proposal is refreshingly precise, and far more realistic than some people think. Its flaw is that it doesn't go far enough.He will have to do it with a subsidy. -
Investing in Human Resources - Room for Debate
Don't assume that community colleges and on-line learning are cheap.The cost is not always in money. -
Slashing College Costs: A Glimpse of the Future - Room for Debate
Most universities, not just in Texas, should prepare to offer quality education at a much lower price.Why? They are full to overflowing. More want to go than can be admitted. -
College Costs: The Role of Rising Demands - Room for Debate
College has been a halfway house between childhood and adulthood. If we make the college years leaner, then we must condition high school graduates for new realities.Get the elementary schools to do their job and the rest of the system will work better. -
How to Mine Rare Earths in Our Own Back Yard - Room for Debate
We need a system where manufacturers of rare earths own them forever; that way, they can recycle these resources indefinitely.Neither necessary or possible. The bits are very small and the collection costs high. Just deal with the thorium.It is all wet chemistry.We know how to do that.The costs will be high in money, not lives.Put it at Hanford. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanford_Site -
China Isn't Cutting Education Investments - Room for Debate
Costs at public universities have not been going up, but students are paying more for their share.The subsidies have been going down. -
Perry's Plan Will Help Control College Inflation - Room for Debate
Achieving the $10,000 target will require an exploration into areas of university operations that have been ignored far too long.Not going to happen. -
At-Risk Students Can't Educate Themselves - Room for Debate
A good college education is expensive, just as The New York Times's news-gathering is.Autodidacts exist. They pioneer new fields. -
Closed, Says Google, but Shops’ Signs Say Open
Yes, Not Googles fault but they should remove the button.

Driving Down College Costs: Education on iTunes? - Room for Debate
Studies show that college students need supervised attention and a challenging environment to learn critical skills.Think sports. -
You Get What You Pay For - Room for Debate
Relying on community colleges, adjunct teachers and online classes is like adding water to soup.You rarely get what you pay for. You always pay for what you get.Not always in cash or even money. -
The Last Moderate
A Blue dog democrat may look to be in the middle.
He is far right but perhaps sane. -
Where the Jobs Aren’t
We know. why now?
