I graduated with no student loans
I forget exactly what it cost per hourly credit but 12 was a full time student and they were definitely less than $100 a credit. I went part time, worked as janitor on campus and washed dishes at night. I remember the books being bull**** expensive. I still had money and time for punk rock shows. That was for my history degree not my education degree.
The thing is tuition is like 10 times as expensive now. The universities should be ashamed.
Also, I know you said you had good teachers who were adjuncts and I believe that but back then the professors were treated much better as well. It doesn’t mean they were better teachers but I was taught by tenured professors because the schools didn’t treat their teachers like fast food workers back then.
Sorry for the nostalgia but it really does keep getting worse all over.
