What does it say about a society that has no problem spending money to keep people in prison, but has the deepest ambivalence about sending them to college?

That it wants to keep profiting from prison labor?

It says if your a criminal and break the law you'll get punished and if you want to further your education you'll pay for it one way or another. Nothing is free. Everything has responsibilities.

You have noticed the product c oming from the colleges ? At least there is a possibility of reform from the prisoners. For the most part, the colleges intentionally produce "woke snowflakes ". Prisons are supposed to go from bad to good. Colleges turn young vulnerable kids evil

Schools/education are simply employment training. How businesses must chuckle skirting the costs of such training and converting it onto anyone rather than themselves. They pay nothing for trained employees that are forced to trade their time and energy for coins for survival.

Marianne, America is a failed state. Period. What else is there to say about the subject?

Tuition has risen faster than inflation for 40 years, and this is the result. If universities cared half as much about education as they did about virtue signaling and bureaucratic bloat, we wouldn’t be in this mess. Tuition is unaffordable.

So then, you hate blue collar workers and want to build a white collar society off of their backs? Wow. Remember when the left used to be the champions of the working class?

I think that's a legitimate part of the conversation. it doesn't have to be all one or the other.
