I think WGU is probably the best model to get degrees to people at a much lower cost and for working class people to do it while they work. Its more geared like a trade school, online, at a fraction of the cost. Get people into teaching, nursing, business and IT, as fast as possible and cheap as possible. Many of these workers are less impacted with a 30k loan (same as a car) than a 100-150k school loan. I know a few people who worked at minimum pay jobs and WGU was an option to get a degree and not go into debt for life. Thats how I heard of it, and looked into it, and was rather impressed with the courses, cost and speed. I was even tempted to sign up and pass the basic courses quickly, as I've been in IT for 30 years, and get a degree cheaply. Plus learn some new skills.
