This is great! Now lets please do the same for nurses and social workers who pay exorbitant tuition rates, too, yet get paid peanuts to be on the frontline of health care.

I would not say nurses get paid "peanuts". Not many jobs would let you earn close to $100k in New York City with only a bachelor degree (or in some cases only a two-year associate degree)

- pmiller2 8y agoEspecially social workers. I have literally no idea why anyone would go to grad school for an MSW and take on the kind of debt required to do so, then enter a profession with the combination of low salaries and horrible work environment that social work has. The same goes to a slightly lesser extent for secondary and elementary school teachers.
