24. I think it was about $3K a year at BU in the early 70s
My parents were able to pay for it out of their middle class paychecks.

They did NOT have to save my entire childhood.

They did NOT have to take out huge loans and spend the rest of their lives paying them off.

Which is what I am looking at now with my kids.

College actually used to be affordable for the middle class. No more.
