College costs have grown wildly in recent years. Yet, instead of paying for education, students are now paying for monumental building programs, sports facilities, administrators pushing political agendas and professors who do not work. It is time to reconsider the more affordable costs of community college and state schools.

Here are some ways to make college more affordable:
- Why would you want to send your children to an expensive “elite” school where they will be indoctrinated with the failed 19th century socialist philosophy and antisemitism, then graduate in slavery to student debt? Choose your college carefully.
- Community colleges are cheaper and better than the first two years at a four-year school. Stay home for the first two years and the only college experience you’ll miss is the student debt trap experience.
- Avoid colleges which market their recreational facilities. You’ll be paying for them for the rest of your life.
- Most students can get scholarships and grants which do not have to be repaid. Only suckers pay the sticker price.
- Make sure your college major can lead to a good job. Some majors like history are more fun as a hobby you can enjoy with the money you make from a real job.
- Work all you can while going to college to minimize your student debt. It seldom hurts your GPA.
