SANTA CRUZ, Calif. — The numbers are mind-boggling.

The price tag for a year at San Francisco State University is rising to $25,000. At the University of California, Santa Cruz, it's $32,000, and private colleges cost more than $50,000.

In 1985, students paid for 25 percent of the cost of their education at state colleges and universities; the state picked up 75 percent of the tab, according to the American Association of State Colleges and Universities. Today, it's about 50-50.
