Ivory Tower reviews:

“Ivory Tower” delves into the loan debt crisis faced by college graduates — and looks at campuses that experiment with ways to teach that don’t also bankrupt those enrolled.

Ivory Tower is a well-made documentary that examines the rising cost of college and the growing debate over whether it's worth the hefty price of admission. Mixing interviews featuring students, professors, and administrators with information found through data mining, the film reveals the business side of higher education and posits that customers -- students -- may not be getting what they need.

There's one brief scene with swearing ("s--t"); otherwise, the movie is completely appropriate for teens and up and should probably be mandatory viewing for high school students considering college (and their parents, too!).

Families can talk about education. Do you think college is necessary today? Is it worth the cost?
What do you think will be the future of education? Will online courses ever replace real classes??
Technology has changed the delivery method of so many of our every day services could it work for higher education???
i.e. MOOC - massive open online courses

Please help spread the word about this important film! https://www.tugg.com/go/pjoopp
