Is cost a barrier to community college attendance? Has Obama asked that question? He should ask here.
It would take members of this forum about 17 minutes to create an associate degree plan that any random person can complete for under $2000. That's without a Pell Grant. Pell Grant makes that deal a money maker.
The cost barrier isn't in earning an associate's degree, it's earning upper level and graduate credit. Anyone who doesn't START with that premise doesn't know enough about education to garner my enthusiasm.
