Local law school has one of worst employment records
**My only reference to law schools was that my belief is that there are more defaults in 4yr schools than law schools so the problem extends to the broader spectrum of higher education, not just laws schools. I waasn't excluding law schools, I was including ALL schools** There are some HBCU's where the true default rate is over 50%, the TRUE default rate not the gamed rate DoE uses (the DoE/Gov uses what is known as the "co-hort" default rate, which is LIMTED to defaults during the first 2 years out of school- and remember it takes 9 months for a SL to default).— October 20, 2012 12:17 a.m.

.**According to their website, SDSU undergrad California resident Basic Tuition and Fees are estimated to be $7076. That’s just tuition and fees.** My first semester at SDSU in 1982 was $150 for the semester. $300 per year.— October 20, 2012 12:14 a.m.

UCAN: Misspelled Accounts Add Up
**This whole scandal and potential fraud makes me wonder if the ratepayers really got a good deal from Shames' representation to the PUC or was his goal merely to get enough concessions to guarantee him a good payday from intervenor fees?** Makes you wonder, totally legit question.— October 18, 2012 10:25 p.m.

Yep, all true- and if that happens the students most likely would NOT pay the tuition and go elsewhere causing the school to close, and if tuition were too high that it could not be paid back then that too would force the school to close-or lower costs. Either way that is how the free market works, those with a workable model and viable model survive, and those that don't will close. 50%, maybe even 75%, of the ABA law schools could not survive in a free market. They would have to lower costs or go out of business, and that is a good thing IMO, b/c the alternative is for the nations taxpayers to get stuck with $250K tuition bills that CANNOT be paid back b/c the ability to pay it back is not, and never will be, there. A $250K in loans, amortized at 8% over 20 years is $2,100/month, or $25K/year AFTER TAXES. $25K per year after taxes is conservatively $40K before taxes. So your nut is $40K before even a DIME goes into your own pocket for a 4-year and legal education. The problem is the median pay for a lawyer out of a 50-200 ranked school is about $40K-$50K, and about 60-70 hours per week. So that kind of debt cannot be paid back at current wage levels. Fact.— October 18, 2012 8:40 p.m.
