Research Blog #3: How might privatization connect to your topic?

How does privatization affect mental illness and stress in college? First of all, privatization increases tuition. That is the biggest and most obvious contribution. But because of the privatization of higher education, along with the raised tuition that this causes, the student loan industry has become one of the largest in America. It is, in almost every case, necessary for students to take out a student loan of some kind in order to pay for college. With the power that the student loan industry has, students end up owing large amounts of money for much of the rest of their lives. This is the main other cause of stress and mental illness in student and post-student lives.
