'IT'S BANANAS': Watch the entire interview with the 'How America Works' host.
'How America Works' host Mike Rowe says 'never in the history of Western civilization' has anything become more expensive faster than a four-year college degree.
As the costs for community, public and private universities have shot up over time, "How America Works" host Mike Rowe agreed thatanymore when there are more affordable – and sometimes more profitable – learning and career opportunities. "It's more expensive than it's ever been, but it's also more expensive than health care. It's more expensive than real estate. It's more expensive than energy," Rowe said on "" Friday. "Never in the history of Western civilization has a thing become more exponentially expensive faster than the cost of a four-year degree. That's fact. If that doesn't make you angry, then I don't know what [will]. It's bananas.
The cost of college and university programs have surged 169% since 1980, according to a report from Georgetown University’s Center on Education and the Workforce. "We've told an entire generation that the best path for most people is the most expensive path. And we've also promoted college not on its merits, but at the expense of every other kind of degree or any kind of certification training," Rowe reacted to the statistic.
