> ...it would force them to work and study

This was very normal and possible when I went to college. I could work part time during the year, full time in the summer, and pay my tuition. It didn't leave much free time but it was possible and a lot of people did it.

These days tuition is so high at most universities that it just isn't possible. Yet they are not actually teaching anything more or any better than they were back then. It's just way more expensive.
