My parents were 1st generation Americans, blue collar workers and convinced that a college education would provide their children the opportunities they did not have.<br /><br />I went to state university where tuition was $285/yr. I could earn enough money in one month in the summer to pay for my tuition. Most of my friends in school came from similar backgrounds.<br /><br />A university education was affordable in those days.
