Campus

@garynada @UziCryptoo @EmersonCKW00 Agreed that some planning is on the student, but the system matters too. A lot of people took the path they were told was the “safe” one — go to college, take on the loans, and it’ll pay off. Sadly for many, it just hasn’t worked out that way.

@UziCryptoo @EmersonCKW00 Student debt is on them. Should have had a better plan.

Older generations say "we all struggled in our 20s." No, you didn't. You didn't pay $3,000 for rent and $25 for eggs. You didn't graduate into $55k student debt and $0 job security. Gen Z isn't dramatic. Ther're drowning.

The reality is… this generation has stopped believing in the old script. The prospect of starting adulthood with crippling mountains of debt is terrifying. And we don’t blame them.

@RadarHits The millennials need a break 😩

Millennials living through: - 2 global recessions - 9/11 - War on Terror - Trillions wasted on Iraq & Afghanistan wars - Global Pandemic Lockdowns - Graduating with $100K student debt - Ai replacing humans in ALL jobs 😭😭😭

@Reuters Young people aren’t anti-education... they're anti-paying a lifetime of student debt.

Average student debt at graduation is nearly $40,000 in the US and more than £50,000 in the UK. As fears grow that AI could replace white-collar jobs, more young people are asking whether a degree is still worth the cost

@BarbellFi Sounds about right 😅

The life of a Gen Z: - Pandemic robs high school experience forcing remote learning - Graduated into that same pandemic - $200k in student debt before getting first paycheck - Unlimited PTO meant no time off - Starter home costs 20x income - Groceries cost 1 month rent - AI eliminated 90% of jobs just as careers launched - Watched people announce they’ve been laid off like it’s a gender reveal - Desperately gamble on crypto & sports - Called lazy for losing all hope - Live behind a screen & don’t make eye contact - Invented their own language boomers can’t understand - Don’t drink (by choice) or have sex (not by choice) - Never leaving mom & dad’s house

@TheBTCTherapist Ridiculous. You shouldn't be buried in student debt (figuratively and literally).

Millennials trying to save for the future $250,000 in student debt, $30,000 auto loan $2,500 in rent every month $1,800 in credit card bills $10/gallon for gas coming (AI took your job and your unemployed)

@PenguinWeb3 No bc why was "follow your dreams" followed by $35k+ in student debt 😅

your 20s: expectation: travel the world, find yourself, build your dream life reality: two jobs, student debt, can't afford doctor appointments, survive on instant noodles, wonder why you're always tired the gap between what we were promised and what we got is wild

It's time to rethink things.

Today’s American Dream looks different. It’s one where higher education means freedom and independence, not crippling debt. It’s one where accessibility and support in higher education are a given, not a privilege gatekept to a select few. #campuspartner

Is the old path to the American Dream still relevant? Is the current system actually viable for today’s generation? We asked people in our office to share their thoughts.

A third of the long-term unemployed hold bachelor degrees from traditional, four-year colleges. What happened?

We see the headlines, and we hear you... Drop your thoughts on the American Dream 👇

Curious about Campus? Here's what we're all about.

Know someone guilty of these common mistakes? Don’t follow in their footsteps 👀

We're all after the American Dream, but our paths to get there look a little different. What hasn’t changed? That education is key to achieving it (and, ideally, education that doesn't pull you into a sea of tuition debt...)

This is our #superbowl 🎥

Let's talk about the cost of college.

We love to see Campus students making headlines! Last week, our student Sahreyah spoke to ABC about her experience winning first place in The Grind.
