A number of colleges and universities have announced steep
tuition increases for next year—more steeper than the current, very (1)______

stock. I am skeptical. A business firm chooses the price that
maximizes its pure revenues, irrespective of fluctuations in income; (3)______
and increasingly the outlook of universities in the United States is
indistinguishable from that of business firms. The arise in tuitions (4)______

professional-school tuition); poorer one’s job prospects, the (6)______
more sense it makes to reallocate time from the job market to
education, in order to make oneself more marketable.

of need—just like business firms agreeing not to give discounts on (10)______
their best customers. [br] (10)
