Another Graphic on the Higher Education Bubble

Ashley Thorne

Last week we took note of a colorful graphic on the higher education bubble created by an online publication called The Best Colleges.  A reader told us about another one, below, which comes from an anonymous blog called $avingsAccount.org. 

We are glad that others are picking up on the theme NAS has been treating for over a year, and to which we devoted our most recent issue of Academic Questions (and thank you to Glenn Reynolds at Instapundit for drawing attention to that AQ issue this week).
