My college for one semester was ~$20k. In 1994. Fuck you if you don't think it's the same. Your generation has perhaps a ~10% change in 1

The average cost of college tuition is now twice what it was in 1994.

All the colleges I've looked at were at least $55k. Even public ones if you're applying from out of state.
