Because I don't want to worry about paying it back (I've seen too many people get into serious debt over college loans).

They can be trouble if you aren't careful. I think if you use them in moderation and only out of necessity you will be o.k, if you are planning to be able to make a decent income after college.

Even if you had a $300 loan payment each month, most incomes would make it worth it because in the long run you have a good career with good income.

I'm finishing up my B.A. in English Literature in May. I would love to go for my master's in English, but I was a lousy student my first two years, so I pretty much blew that. I'll probably end up getting a Master of Arts in Teaching and then teaching high school. (that degree is much less competitive due to a teacher shortage)
