What did college cost you and in which year?

(This isn't meant to be a gotcha. I know I've had this discussion with my parents and I am generally curious if we're talking in the same terms)
What did the professors make, and in what year?

My brother and I had to deal with those decisions back in the early 80s

earlier generations didn't send a high percentage of kids to college

as discussed here many times - trade schools and community colleges are a much less expensive option and provide value

sometimes the decision NOT to attend a University is the wise option

Why is it not relevant? Professors make triple what they did when I was in school, and they have very generous retirement packages.

College is not for everybody

I just don't see it that young folks have it tougher these days than prior generations

but, I'm a boomer and that's how boomers think

I also don't think this belongs on the virus thread

Well, because we're having a discussion about consumer-side finances. At least, that's the subject where my post was aimed. 

(Does this work in other situations? Are medical costs rising because doctors are paid more? Are houses more expensive because people in construction get paid more?)
