This person will be a debt serf for the majority of her most productive years. Kids? A home? These things will be exceedingly painful to even attempt. And for what? A couple bad decisions she made at an age where everyone makes bad decisions.

Higher education's relationship with our student borrowing systems can only be described in the terms most apt, most deserved: Parasitic, opportunistic, and in most instances, fraud in the inducement. The administrations that feed off this trough are worse than subprime and payday lenders, the clutches of whom at least the debtors can escape through bankruptcy if necessary.
Wow

The folks here who went to NY law school and got two Millie dollar referral checks got life dicked.
