Statement2: This year the average cost of tuition at a private, four-year university is more than $ 31,000 per year. In 1971, tuition cost less than $ 2,000, even after adjusting for inflation. Statement4: The trend is similar at public, four-year institutions. Statement5: Fortunately, with the advent of the internet, independent learning is easier than ever before. Statement6: Students can learn hard skills online for relatively minimal costs, like coding and web design. Online courses can also replicate a traditional college education, with options such as math, science, and liberal arts courses. But learning online is independent with less time and opportunity to communicate with professors and no life with classmates that is always seen as an important lesson. Statement8: As a result, high school students would be wise to weigh their options before choosing not to attend a traditional four-y ear college.",

Statement2: Since the industry refuses to take action, it is the national government that must regulate industry safety standards. In particular, the government has to at least require oil companies to put double hulls on their tankers and to assume financial responsibility for accidents. Statement3: Industry representative : the industry alone should be responsible for devising safety standards because of its expertise in handling oil and its understanding of the cost entailed. Statement4: Implementing the double-hull proposal is not currently feasible because it creates new safety issues. Statement5: Furthermore, the cost would be burdensome to the industry and consumers.\nPremise1: The only effective sources of increased stringency in safety standards for oil tankers are action by the industry itself or national government regulation.\nPremise2: The requirement of two hulls on oil tankers, although initially costly, will save money over time by reducing cleanup costs.\n\nPlease write the modified argument below: \n\nLet's think step by step.
