Recent news has suggested a need for a new standard in post-secondary education. There is one, and it's closer to home than you think.

Issues surrounding post-secondary education have recently appeared in the news; the rising tuition costs and the subsequent student loan debt have prompted colleges and universities to devise plans to retain students. One institution has even partnered with a big corporation to create a free education for employees, and the President has initiated a number of plans to help student loan borrowers manage the tremendous amount of debt they have accrued. Regardless of the headline, the news seems to revolve around the same issue in higher education: the exorbitant tuition rates.
