>The university system in the US is the envy of the world right now.
Not really. It's built on a unsustainable model of student debt. This bomb has been building for generations and when it goes off who knows what it will wipe out.
Meanwhile, a lot of public universities have dipped in quality and don't seem as focused on education. Classes are run by adjunct professors or grad students while the students pay far more than other students in other counties.
The massive increase in price and decrease in quality will eventually cause some kind of reaction--probably either fewer people going to college or colleges being forced to cut tuition to keep their current numbers.
