Few questions loom as large for parents and students these days as the question of how to afford a college education. College costs have been rising for decades, and alltoo often, students rely heavily on student loans and graduate with significant debt loads that they spend years paying off.

Alex Chediak, professor of engineering and physics at California Baptist University, has tackled this question and provided parents and students with an invaluable guide in his bookBeating the College Debt Trap, and on November 21st he joined us at the Acton Institute’s Mark Murray Auditorium to share his insights.

We’re pleased to share the video of his presentation below.
