Gotta make everyone want to keep those subscriptions.

We'll see. We have options. It's just an overall frustrating experience that is unnecessarily opaque.

Umm. All you White House folks please keep the name of my city out of your mouths. We do not need that nonsense here. As far as you are concerned, Seattle does not exist.

He looks TERRIBLE.

Washington's is more vague. It just says that funding education is the paramount duty of the state. The legislature has taken this vagueness for a ride for a lot of years now.

UW was $1300 a quarter when I went.

UW is about $12,500/yr for in-state tuition + $16k-ish for dorm/food. The biggest problem is getting in, though. It’s VERY competitive. If our kid got in & lived at home, it would be fine for *us*. Thankfully we have 529 money & live not far away. Otherwise that’s almost $30k for freshman year.

About Time is an incredible movie.

I’m really wishing I taught at a certain small liberal arts college that my son desperately wants to attend because of their insanely awesome chemistry program. Alas.
November 17, 2025 at 3:30 AM
We will find a way, but what about the people who can’t??
And it sucks when you find the perfect school and get priced out of it. Not an elite school, just a nice, caring small one for your kid with ADHD who might need scaffolding and might drown in 1000 kid lectures.
Just ranting here. /f

Even if parents want to/can help w/parent+ loans, those are capped and also not enough for many schools. If students want to borrow more they have to do so with high interest loans that parents have to co-sign for.
All of this makes college inaccessible to soooo many people. It crushes dreams.
November 17, 2025 at 3:28 AM
What I’m getting at with my post is that the act of financing for college is purposely mysterious and unrealistic. Even in-state tuition alone costs more than twice what a student is allowed to federally borrow.

My son is an applying senior so he’s past a lot of this. We have 529s for all of our kids but it barely makes a dent with these prices.
My son has done full IB curriculum, so more than meets requirements for college.

Yes. Our cc is very close to our house and has a decent record of successful transfers to the university. It’s definitely an option. Kid is just so so hungry for that university environment and research opportunities, etc. that he is having a hard time considering it.

My dang kids are uncoordinated intellectuals though. 😂😂🤪
November 17, 2025 at 2:09 AM
Or plumbers! Both make great money!
November 17, 2025 at 2:04 AM
I know and lemme tell you when you get to this point: it is CRUSHING.
November 17, 2025 at 1:59 AM
Except this one has no regulations.
November 17, 2025 at 12:24 AM
Well, umm, it does take time to procreate, grow a human, and then have it grow up to employable age. But I guess when they kill the child labor laws that becomes less relevant.
