Abstract

Our Universities: Cost and Competition

The idea of colleges raising tuition based on the willingness of families to pay is poorly conceived. Cost and quality must fit together. Any other viewpoint is wrong academically. And equally important, it makes bad business: It may work, but only for a season.

"The theory of it was, basically, we will raise the tuition as much as the market will bear,"

William Massy, Stanford University
