More Than 40% of Student Borrowers Aren’t Making Payments
We really need to educate students potentially starting college that they shouldn&#x27;t major in something that pretty much has no chance of ever paying it back.  This applies to most liberal arts programs.<p>A college education is a major investment.  It&#x27;s sad that culturally, our financial education is this poor.<p>I majored in a science and had all of my debts paid off within 5 years.  I have friends that majored in things like history and still haven&#x27;t paid their debts off after 10 years.<p>The popular thing to to is blame society, the university, or even high school teachers for recommending someone go to college.  But, students need to take personal responsibility for taking out a loan and being unable to pay it back.<p>When this happens, we will have less students making foolish decisions.
