CSU (not UC) was quite a bit cheaper than that in the mid 80s. I believe I paid $210 for fall '83.
Of course, that was before we were far into (sarcasm) The Golden Age of Reaganism - schools were more funded by tax money than loans, so the budgeting wasn't left up to the credit whims of 18 year olds. Tuition/fees went up quite a bit by '88, though still nothing like what we are paying for my daughter now.
- cinquemb 11y agoI just don't see how people want to deal with this, I mean I can understand if they think if they need $x in order to do $y (but for most, usually having that $x isn't the only thing people will consider in order for one to do $y, and increasingly acts as a negative signal, not to mention all the bs people complain about which gets annoying to listen to when they keep doing the same thing…), but I think we've long passed the Rubicon as far as this is concerned. I perceive it as insanity, and I almost don't feel bad anymore if people keep playing this game with their lives, makes it easier for people who opt out.
