I think the issue is that so many people come out of college without a real grasp on what they should be making.
They have this idea from the college that they should be making 40-80K and they settle for the first offer that comes in. Its a back and forth.
The college doesn't want you to be in debt, but it's your job to demand a fair wage.
The college doesn't care, they already have their money. It used to be the bank that cared weather you make enough money to pay back the loans, I'm not exactly sure what the current system looks like other than the loving arm of government has gotten involved somehow.
Oh I agree, the college doesn't care, but they do put up numbers stating if you take this program you can expect to make X to Y.
Which of course leaves out all kinds of details, like where that salary range is for, inflation etc etc.
