最大的不公平是教育的不公平

WangXu 3:50AM March 13, 2010

Excluding colleges like Berea (www.berea.edu) from this list is troubling -- what is the motive, if not to perpetuate debt and the status quo of broken higher education finance?
Why not instead ask the question, "why can't more colleges and universities adopt Berea's model?"
After all, if Harvard used its endowment the way Berea has for more than 100 years, then Harvard could provide tuition-free education for more than 40,000 students each year.
Berea and the other excluded colleges deserve to included, if for no other reason than to provoke a discussion of why the majority of America's higher education institutions can't control their ever-rising tuition costs.
