Jeez
Ahh back when they were not slaves
Have only heard about those days
WTF
That's what broken money looks like in the rearview...
I think that's back when public schools had some education involved in their process too.
Yup. My tuition was $1000 in 1975.
was it cheap? i mean compared to the general consuming prices in 1971
Current tuition rate $4656 + $720 fees for $5376 total.
Indicates an inflation rate of 6.78% per year.
That's about 4.5 oz of gold at the time, which is now about $18,000 now for a semester, or $36,000 for a full year.
To compare, in-state tuition for West Virginia University today is $30k and for out of state $45k.
This isn't the deal you think it is because inflation has completely broken our sense of money.
