The Rising Costs of "Public" Education/ Accounting for Columbus' Homeless Population

Discussion about the rising costs of tuition for public universities with Delta Cost Project Executive Director Jane Wellman and OSU Undergraduate Student Government President Micah Kamrass. And: Ted Williams put homelessness back in the news, but how many homeless people really live in Columbus? All Sides is joined by two students from OSU’s College of Social Work who volunteered to count the homeless on Tuesday, as part of the Department of Housing and Urban Development's "Point-in-Time" count. Graduate student Dave Simmons and undergraduate senior Tiffany Hart volunteered to tally the unsheltered individuals who are living on the streets, in camps, or other areas around Columbus.
