I remember talking to out-of-state students about this and being blown away by their tuition costs.
Without room and board, tuition for me came down to $3,000/semester and could be reduced by half for a year or two by doing a transfer program from a community college.
Out-of-state students were paying over $30,000/semester. It made me wonder why they came here at all. This was not a particularly prestigious college. They were paying almost double what my starting salary was at the same college per year.
This is at a public, state college in one of the less-populated states.
Tuition where I teach is more than my salary
