Honestly, we need to completely reevaluate how we handle higher education. Those who enter a service profession: cops, firemen, teachers, military, doctors, etc should have student loans forgiven after x years.

For those who can’t afford college, if they apply to a service program (ex: police training, pre-med) tuition should be deferred and then waived after they earn a degree and spend x years in the profession.
Re: doctors, nurses, etc. Tuition should be waived if they work in an area of market shortage. Boob doctors in Beverly Hills would not qualify.
Ideally tuition would be free for everyone, but everyone would also be taxed based on their true income level and tax dollars would support public universities. Schools would also take the best applicants. While there is some value to legacy students, unqualified legacies should not be admitted
