maybe the solution is to raise out of state tuition to levels that produce a profit and can subsidize expansion for CA students.
why not $120k a year for out of state tuition. or 175k for foreigners? or hell, 250k a year for uc, 219k for cal state? if theyre loaded, whats the difference? at the very least it should cost the same as a top pvt school. we should find outvwhat the market will bear maybe we can find 500 chinese people who will pay 2 million each for a degree. is a billion enough to run the whole shebang?
wait…similar to bidding up property prices, we can auction off a set number of uc seats worldwide, no min. qualification. pay all 4 yrs upfront. no refund if u fail out, grade foreigners on a curve and kick out 1/3 of the class every year!! haha! like old school law schools!! then we can find out exactly what its worth.
ebay.
im guessing its well over 100k a year. why in the hell would we charge less than they are willing to pay????
if each chinese dude was ponying up 2 million for a degree, maybe we could give scholarships to everyone….
make it illegal for student visa holders to pay less than 500k a year to study here in ca, so pvt schools cant compete on price. thats what it costs, baby. pay to play…
