Problem solved.
So we've got some serious mixed evidence about whether the Bennett hypothesis could work.
Nevertheless, this massive and sudden experiment is going forward today, the day we are publishing this episode.
And so the people going to grad school this fall are already scrambling to make it work.
We've got more on what the research says about how they're most likely to react after the break.
Okay, so mixed conclusions on whether and when the Bennett hypothesis is correct, meaning the evidence linking how much people can borrow to how much grad schools charge for tuition depends on lots of things.
But Corey also talked to some other researchers about this new Trump administration plan.
which restores the idea of loan caps from 20 years ago.
And actually, the loans end up being even more limited than before because they don't take 20 years of inflation into account.
So we asked Corey, how do the people you talked to think this move is going to play out?
Oh, that's interesting.
So no one has a true crystal ball as to how much, if at all, these caps will bring down the price of grad school.
But, Corey, how do we think students will respond to this?
Do we know that?

You're too expensive.
