I went to ITT when I was 22.

In going through this, just one thing I discovered is the amount of debt that was taken on by folks during the 2000’s.

What I mean by that is that while my debt is older, and because of that, in most cases (unless someone has managed to pay off their loans completely), I have paid more, folks from the 2000s owe more.  It makes sense, the tuitions for more.

It doesn’t make me any less convinced of my own case.  But I have definitely walked away feeling worse for some of the more recent ITT’ers.  On the other hand, their debts are being removed quickly (by government standards).

I guess what I am saying is that some people paid $45,000/year at ITT.  I certainly didn’t pay that much.  And I cannot imagine having that kind of debt at 22.
