According to the New York Times, “Too many people, including plenty of brand-new college graduates, fall far behind on their student loan payments for no good reason.” 

As teachers we encourage all of our students to attend college. And the results are clear, students who graduate with a four year degree earn significantly more over the course of their lifetime. What can we as educators do to help prepare our students to manage the debt they incur upon graduation. Please share your thoughts and ideas in the comment section below.
