When my dad grew up (in Washington) he was able to pay his college tuition in full and save for a downpayment on his home by working in the kitchen at the university. Nowadays, if you went to University full time and then purchased a house out of college with your only income being a minor kitchen job at whatever school you attended you'd likely have $100k+ of debt
