College costs should be controlled as well. While it would be inappropriate for the Govt to step in and tell the college what they could charge, there has to be a way.
Without some kind of control, the colleges are incentivized to increase costs to meet available funds. If the Govt will give out $30K in loans then the college will charge $50K and if the Govt increases the loan amount then the college increases the costs - no reason to leave money on the table.
Yes, this is all my opinion/observation and may not be accurate or provable. But, I know that the increase in cost at the college I graduated from has far outpaced inflation or the increase in salaries. But they still fill the school - with a lot of help from Govt loans.
