State University Systems
State university systems are often huge, and you might find certain classes so big, that some students have to watch the lectures on closed-circuit TV in the hallways. Unlike public elementary and secondary schools, they are not free, though tuition is lower than for private colleges, especially for in-state students. All state university systems are feeling the cost crunch; they are getting more expensive. The best state university systems, like those of New York and California, are as highly regarded as many of the finest private colleges. More than three-fourths of all college students attend state or public universities.
