Political Misconceptions on College Cost

Since I had decided to switch my topic from college to political misconceptions, I have realized a common link between the two: the differing views between the political parties on the idea behind education which affects the college atmosphere. For students seeking a cheaper more affordable education for their college years, they must examine each party to determine which is more feasible. While most people do in fact believe that the political leaders are not attempting to solve any problems faced by college tuition, they in fact have each laid out plans as to what they hope to do solve this problem. By clicking here, you can view each of their plans to lower the cost. To sum up the main points that each possess, the democrats hope to make college affordable for all by increasing the Pell Grant investments, increasing the nation's minority institutions, and by increasing an emphasis on community college while the republicans provide more of a focus on improving the classes of the institutions and addressing the rise in college costs with plans that involve job opportunities to lower the burden felt by students. Ultimately, while most Americans do not believe the government is attempting to address college concerns, they have in fact laid out plans for this exact problem.

Which plan would be better: Democrat or Republican? Leave a comment saying which and why.
