Education is an investment not a profit oriented business. Trump is investing in China. Apparently he thinks it's a better bet than America. He told the Grandparents in N. Carolina to start teaching their grandkids woodworking because he is bringing back furniture manufacturing in the State. I guess we can sell the Chinese tables and chairs made in our spanking new sweatshops while they get all the high paying tech jobs.

My daughter received a scholarship from the University of Nebraska. It reduced her tuition by 50%. It gave her the tuition in-state residents pay. All the rest of her money was either 3rd party scholarships or student loans.

My point is that it doesn't cost the school any money to discount tuition so it doesn't need to be "made up" by other funds.
