  College Doesn’t Need to Be Free

  At the base of the debate about the right to college education is the question whether college is a private or public benefit. Advocators argue that university education serves two fundamental interests of a modern democracy—an educated citizenryand a professional workforce. In this regard, free university is beneficial to both individuals and the society. However, some scholars counter that free college is not all it is cracked up to be. The fact that people with degrees are doing jobs that do not require university education represents a misallocation of resources. We agree that education should be considered as inalienable, but the high expenses of it cannot be ignored. In my opinion, it is necessary to bring college within financial reach, but not necessary to make it free for all.

  Why? Making college completely free creates a moral bazard problem. Students who have free access to likelihood that they will graduate on time will decrease even further. In the end, students become more frivolous and less choosy about the university they go.

  In fact, as the real problem is that the rising tuition is scaring some best but impoverished students away from enrolling in college, what we need to do is to keep college affordable. That is the crux of the matter. Basically, there are two approaches to affordability: increasing government’s subsidy or cutting down college’s cost. The focus of government policy has been on the former and we need more of the latter. Actually higher education organization is a bloated enterprise. Too many professors do too little teaching to too many ill-prepared students. Besides, although the size of the administration and staff increases substantially, the benefits are suspect.

  To conclude, the efficacy of making college free deserves closer scrutiny. Instead, targeted government subsidies and cost-cutting measures are more feasible ways to ensure quality higher education and make it available to driven students irrespective of their family’s income.
