If the boomer was 60, it would still only cost $2,267.87.

If they're 65, it would have been 3,245.61.

Tuition today: $41,540 at private colleges $11,260 at public colleges (in-state residents) $29,150 at public colleges (out-of-state residents)

Sure, inflation is a thing, but the difference in dollar amount is still staggering.

I feel very lucky to be in the UK. I get to go to imperial for less than the cheapest offerings in the USA.

it's still £10k / year whereas it used to be £10k for the whole degree.
