Average in-state tuition and fees at four-year public colleges rose an additional $631 this fall, or 8.3 percent, compared with a year ago.
Nationally, the cost of a full credit load has passed $8,000, an all-time high. Throw in room and board, and the average list price for a state school now runs more than $17,000 a year, according to the twin annual reports on college costs and student aid published Wednesday by the College Board.
add another year since most people take 5 to graduate. 85k is considered a reasonable price for a degree at a state school these days.

And there are plenty of awful (and far more expensive) private schools as well. What's your point? Higher education costs have been increasing well beyond the rate of inflation for years. This essentially is old news packaged into a new headline.
Indeed I did. It was certainly expensive for a state school (the most expensive in-state tuition in the country behind Penn State, I believe) but it was still far cheaper than BU, GW, Syracuse, and all those other T40-60 private research universities which are of essentially equal educational quality.
