i believe the answer is D. choices A, B, and C all directly relate to the costs of school. students definitely need to question how their tuition will be paid, and definitely need to choose a school that's within their price range. universities vs. community colleges have a great difference between their costs of attendance. "what should my major be?" is definitely a question that people ask during a recession, because recessions can happen as a result of certain markets crashing. for example, the housing market crashed in 2008. fewer people starting college probably went into real estate or construction related fields, because that market was not growing and it would not provide a good job. the attendance of class is not directly related to the cost of school; when weighing the costs of school as a whole, people usually don't consider "oh, so how many times should i attend college algebra?"
