It would do us all good to get to know the work of Jane Wellman of the Delta Cost Product. She has apparently influenced the Obama Administration recently on why college costs are escalating and helps explain why the administration is planning to put greater pressure on Universities to keep costs down. I am not far enough into her work yet to figure out where state budgets fit into the entire picture, but I plan to look further into what she has to say.
