>the cost of college

In the UK, our parents' generation paid zero. They got given grants...

That includes the elite, politician-farming universities.

The current government just tripled the fees, after one coalition partner promised to abolish them in the campaign. That's why students ended up trashing (actually the other partner's) HQ in 2010.

Yet college is more of a requirement now than it was then.
