Many of the sources for this summary are behind paywalls (though this Government Accountability Office (GAO) reporting on student financing is not, nor is the Bryan Alexander video).

The sources - mostly representing a conservative or right wing perspective - argue that demand for higher education is shrinking (with some saying that's a good thing).

And: "A sectorwide approach is needed because the economics of higher education are not going to hold."
