We need to cut student loans,and at the same time force tuition back down (probably by putting federal and state pressure on them by threatening to cut grants or taxing them higher).

Universities need to return to their core purpose teaching young minds, furthering science, or preparing them for jobs.

Instead of the corporate universities drowning students in debt.

The basketball coach at my alma matter is paid double what the university president makes. I think that's wrong. I am deeply in the minority, but I think universities should focus less money on athletics, and more on academics.
Drowning students in debt so they are basically forced to work for evil corporations who do evil things.
