On this episode Erik is joined by Chuck Trafton (@chucktrafton), of FlowPoint and edly, and Will Nelligan (@williamnelligan), of the Education Finance Institute.

They talk about:

- Why there needs to be a marketplace for ISAs.

- How ISAs ensure that schools have “skin in the game.”

- The problems with student loans.

- The mechanics of ISA repayment and the ways in which they are progressive.

- Why ISAs provide a unique opportunity for investors.

- How ISAs can fix some of the perverse incentives that schools have.

- Legislation that will enable ISAs to be more widespread.

- Why it makes financial sense for schools to spend so much money on “customer acquisition” and how ISAs can create a new funding model for higher ed institutions.
