Is College Worth It?

I am going back to Tim Elmore for my blog this month.  In a previous article from his Growing Leaders blog, he wrote about the broken business model that our nation's colleges and universities continue to follow.  This article follows up with a number of reasons why the post-secondary system is broken, at least from his perspective, and the impact that is having.  One thing that we as parents of students who are in college, or are intending to go to college have to remember is that we are consumers.  Sending a child to college is not just an educational decision.  It is very much a financial or a business decisions.  I encourage you to read this article and catalog it as you look forward to your child's education beyond high school.
