To pay the price out of sheer heart-love that could recognize no price too great to pay, had been the ennoblement of Dag Daughtry which Michael had worked. At any rate, whether I had given cause or not it went without saying that I could not pay the price. He understood his duty, in short, to have three branches: The Communication Workers Union said it was clear the Government will try to make workers pay the price of leaving the EU. Brexit 'could bring greatest stripping of workers' rights'.
Responsibility for sound IT systems is often lacking at the highest levels of management, and ultimately customers pay the price. TUC warns over fallout from Brexit.

And when you are not at that level against a team of this quality, you pay the price. We didn't maintain our Chelsea standards. They may also ask why money is always found for the higher-voltage connections from the offshore wind farms, through more populated areas, to be put underground, while those small rural communities are made to pay the price. Murphy's unfounded assertion that teachers, nurses, plumbers etc will pay the price for independence is a cheap attempt to intimidate the very people he is elected to represent - the working class.

We in higher education have been talking about and feeling the impact of the "perfect storm" decreased state and federal funding, increased tuition and fees, and more need for college degrees for almost two decades. We have tinkered around the issues with technology, various business models, and financial aid processes without much success. I think it's time we try something other than tinkering. Goldrick-Rab's recommendations in this book are insightful and based on evidence, so let's stop tinkering and fix the issues.
We have many of the answers in this book.
Paying the Price: College Costs and the Betrayal of the American Dream by Sara Goldrick-Rab
This one book can stop the storm. Sara Goodrick-Rab and colleagues six year longitudinal study of low income students making their way through the financial maze of college completion is a must read for anyone concerned about the future of higher education. Her data-rich analysis situates the work in the changes in state and federal policy over a half a century and how decreasing state funds to our public institutions means that it is no longer feasible for students to work and pay their way through college.
She challenges many assumptions about why low income students do not complete college and offers a way forward. A practical, clear-eyed vision for how our nation can benefit from the talent of all who aspire to obtain a college degree, regardless of family background and socio-economic status.

Bought this for a higher education finance course last semester. Hands down this is one of the best books I've read recently, and something probably every administrator and politician should be required to read. Very well written and interesting, if not a bit depressing. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. The most compelling read about the true costs and challenges associated with higher education.
Parents, students, scholars, practitioners, and citizens should rush to read this.

One person found this helpful. Goldrick-Rab sheds light on the true story-the students' story-in the struggle for education and economic empowerment in US. As a faculty member of a local community college, I see firsthand what Dr. Goldrick-Rab discusses in her book. The study data along with the testimonials and experiences offered by the students featured throughout bring true light to the issue of economic struggle in our Higher Education system in the United States.
Goldrick-Rab focuses on the quantity of students affected by this issue, but more importantly, she focuses on the quality or lack therof of their lives and their education because of the impacts of the issue. It is a wonderful read, and I strongly advise that more educators and legislators read and listen to the advice for change that Dr. Goldrick-Rab offers in this powerful book! This is an important book that everyone should read- especially if you are fighting for a better higher education system in this country which does not include massive debt for its students.
Well written and very well researched, yet an easy read which doesn't get too into the weeds to follow. Good book to read for those working on financial aid, college tuition, funding for low-income students. A great read for college administrators as well as K educators.
