@lookingforward: I agree with you that information is readily available, but some families are just not well-informed enough. I think that, to some (though not all) extent, colleges pushing parents into PLUS loans are like certain doctors pushing patients to buy equally effective but much more expensive branded drugs with their credit cards, knowing it will bankrupt them.
