The article looks at the historic and economic factors that have led to the current approach taken in the US to third level education fees. It examines the arguments made by the left as to how this could/should be reformed. Finally it challenges the idea that free fees would eliminate all class disadvantage when it comes to completely third level education and encourages us to be aware of how deep and influential privilege can be.

"Ironically, such values-based arguments, however one feels about them, are undercut by rising inequality. As the rich pull away from the rest, their increased political power may stymie tax rises needed to fund universal public services. Meanwhile for progressive politicians the need to target available funds at the worst-off in society grows more urgent; in America, the argument that the children of billionaires should not receive a government-funded education takes on greater moral as well as practical weight."

This project is a part of Illustration Club.

Illustration Club is a group of friends and co-workers who decided to get together, learn and explore editorial illustration. 

This personal project allows us to explore and practice our illustration skills, boosts our creativity and gives us a place to learn new tools and techniques.
We keep up to date with what happening around us and we translate that to our own visual language. The Club give us a place to test and try out new ideas.

Very much a learning environment, supporting each other and giving constructive feedback has been a foundation to our journey to editorial illustration.
