I do think students should be able to discharge student loans in bankruptcy. However to balance it out, you lose all rights to use any schooling. Try to register for any class again and your loans are reinstated with back interest. HR departments will be required to check the blacklist to ensure that your schooling is not relevant to any position you apply or might be promoted to. (you cannot raise to something like master plumber because a master plumber is expected to have some skills that you might learn in college even though most learn on the job)

Of course the HR blacklist needs to be protected by HIPPA like laws against misuse. A company should expect to sometimes hire someone and then find out they cannot promote them very far.

HR Blacklist? Terrible idea.

Just because you made a mistake 20 years ago doesn't mean you should never be allowed again. We're not talking about murder; and this is directly messing with someone's livelihood.

Then pay your tuition loans.
