or car loan there is still something of value there that the bank can go after to recoup some of their losses. With a student loan nothing of value, to a third party, was gained so none of the losses can be recovered.

I would like to see the schools on the hook for some of this. If a school is offering an art history degree that costs $250k then they should be responsible when a graduate is unable to find a job that allows them to repay the loan. If an engineer cannot pay back that same loan then I don’t really blame the school.
