And of the many who in the recent past have have dared to aspire beyond their class, an unfortunately high number are being driven back into deprivation by the unreasonable and morally bankrupt demands of these financial institutions.
How do you reconcile that statement against the fact that a number of the top colleges essentially become a 'free ride' for those in lower (and increasingly, more middle) income groups if the student is admitted in their need-blind admissions?

And ultimately as fewer and fewer are able to even consider the possibility of advanced education...
Is this true or are, in fact, more and more people not only considering but actually receiving an advanced education? Ivies aren't the only path and there are many affordable and viable solutions.
