| Resumen: |
Recent years have seen a dramatic, albeit uneven and still contested, shift in the burden of higher education costs from being borne predominately by government, or taxpayers, to being shared with parents and students. This cost sharing" may take the form of tuition, either being introduced where it did not hitherto exist, or being rapidly increased, "filling in," as it were, for diminishing governmental/taxpayer support. China and the UK, although with totally different social-political-economic systems and at totally different stages in their expansion of higher educational participation, are both examples of a recent introduction of tuition fees. "Cost sharing" may also take the form of public institutions charging more nearly "break even," or "full cost" fees for room, board, books, and ther costs of student living that may have been formerly covered mainly by government. In some cases, the shift of the cost burden from government to student and family may come in the form of a reduction in student grants, or in the "effective grants" represented by student loan subsidies in the form of very low rates of interest. Finally, the shift may come about through public policies shifting enrollments from a heavily subsidized public sector to a much less subsidized, tuition-dependent private sector. But in all these ways and in combinations thereof, the burden of higher educational costs worldwide is being shifted to students and families from governments or taxpayers (or from the general citizen/consumer losing purchasing power through hidden business taxes or through inflation brought about by public deficit financing). In light of this apparent phenomenon, this paper explores five questions: 1. What is the theoretical rationale for shifting some portion of the higher educational cost burden from governments and taxpayers to students and families? 2. What are the elements of theoretical political, ideological, or practical/strategic resistance to this shift? 3. What is the theoretical impact of increasing cost burdens (mainly tuition and related fees) on access or participation? Or, what is the impact of increasing student and family-borne costs on student enrollment behavior: to enroll, to persist to a degree, to persist to a higher degree, and where, or in what kind of, higher educational institution, to enroll? In this connection, we can anticipate a greater enrollment impact on those whose access is already compromised by, e.g.: low income; isolation--from good secondary schools and the cultural enrichment generally associated with urban areas, as well as from proximate institutions of higher education; gender (or more directly, "being female"); racial, ethnic, religious, or linguistic status. 4. What is the higher education cost (or more properly, the expenditure) burden (or pattern of burdens) currently being borne by the student and family in various countries, and what is the recent increase in these costs being borne by students and families as opposed to governments or taxpayers? Answering this question must consider any offsetting effects of means-tested or otherwise targeted grants and student loans.) 5. What policy tools_e.g., need-based grants, loans, loan subsidies, very low or no tuition, subsidized student living arrangements (room and board)_are being employed to increase and/or to more nearly equalize accessibility_and what is known of their efficacy? |
