Families Urge Universities to Manage Tuition Funds Responsibly

Every autumn, countless American parents and caregivers make significant sacrifices to finance a child’s college education. They often work extended hours, delay retirement, increase their debt, or put aside other goals. Their motivation stems from the belief that higher education offers opportunities they themselves did not possess.

The Hechinger Report highlights issues of inequality and innovation in education to inform the public on necessary improvements and the importance of these initiatives.

Families rightly expect universities to handle each tuition dollar with the diligence with which they manage their own finances.
