The commodification of higher education
Original: Editorial | The commodification of higher education
The Daily Pennsylvanian has published an editorial arguing that higher education is increasingly treated as a commodity — a product to be bought and sold rather than a public good. The piece examines what this shift means for students, universities and the value of a degree, and joins a broader ongoing debate in the United States about tuition costs, student debt and the purpose of college.
Why now: Rising tuition costs and debates over the value of a degree keep the role of universities in society under scrutiny.
