How does college tuitions increase relate to personal finance?

http://money.cnn.com/2010/02/24/news/economy/public_tuition_soars/index.htm how does the above relate to personal finance? All i can think of is we learn about budgeting in that class and that class i guess prepares us for college, but i don't think that's the right answer or what the teachers looking for.

1. Higher college tuitions mean more cost to you in the future. That means you will have to plan for this increase (and even better any future increase) in your budgeting. You will need to save more today to pay more tomorrow OR find an investment that return more so you will still hit your target.
