Kevin Murphy, an economics professor at the University of Chicago who has studied the economic benefits of higher education, warns that money shouldn't deter anyone from any level of education—including graduate school. "I hate to see people get discouraged" by high tuition costs, says Murphy, who won a MacArthur "genius" prize in 2005. Educated people do so much better "in so many aspects of life by deepening your mind, and improving your appreciation of life. You should go for a master's in poetry if you enjoy it," he says.
