I presently have two kids in college and it is brutal. My son is at Dickinson College in Carlisle, Pa., and my daughter is at Drew University in New Jersey. It is $40,000 per year per kid. They do have some scholarships and other financial aid, otherwise they could not go. That said I fear the prohibitive cost of private education is dangerously close to making us a two class country...haves and have nots.
