That was an interesting program.  It focused heavily on the predatory nature of student loans, the high pressure sales tactics at private and public universities, the increasing student loan default rate, stories of students unable to pay their loans and racking up hundreds of thousands of dollars, companies creating programs that encourage inappropriate spending of money, higher education officials spending ridiculous amounts of money on "retreats", and much more.
