“High school seniors are in the thick of college application and visitation season. It’s not quite what it used to be; there are fewer and fewer college-bound Americans every year. But there’s one nice surprise that next year’s college students might enjoy: lower tuition. Americans had gotten used to near-double-digit increases in tuition at four-year colleges and universities.
