A number of colleges and universities have announced steep
tuition increases for next year—more steeper than the current, very (1)______
low rate of inflation. They say the increases are needed because of

indistinguishable from that of business firms. The arise in tuitions (4)______
may reflect the fact economic uncertainty increases the demand for (5)______
education. The biggest cost of being in school is foregoing
income from a job (this is primarily a factor in graduate-and
professional-school tuition); poorer one’s job prospects, the (6)______
more sense it makes to reallocate time from the job market to
education, in order to make oneself more marketable.
The ways in which universities make themselves attractive to

not to reward scholarships on the basis of merit rather than purely (9)______
of need—just like business firms agreeing not to give discounts on (10)______
their best customers.
