Thoughts on the Fox Special
I saw the special on Sunday night about college tuition and thought they did a good job for one full hour. In parts though it was fully lacking.
The first segment on the show was on the Patterson family. Both the father and the mother worked and made a combined 135,000 in salary. They showed them looking at two different colleges. One of them in Massachusetts and one of them in New York where they would pay an in state tuition rate. The school in New York is over 13 grand less per year in tuition.
The father took a second job on the weekends just to help pay for the daughters education.
