Paying back loans should be no-brainer

A recent article quotes Elgin Community College’s director of financial aid and scholarships saying that some student borrowers don’t understand they have to pay back the loan. I argue that if this is true, that student should not be attending college. Maybe we need admission tests for these junior colleges. What is the state of mind of the entitlement generation? Maybe too many people think that college is the answer to their lack of ability.
