Everything is not without cause and affect. There are some colleges however that are bucking the trend. What I mean by that is a select group of colleges have changed their financial aid programs to not have their students saddled with debt. I believe it was started by Princeton and now Yale, Williams College, as well as others have followed suit. What they have done is grant students the money that they would have otherwise taken federal loans to get. I think it is a huge step in the right direction unfortunately it's only a very few select schools that are able to do this.
