No, it isn't. The article I directly linked to has the most expensive colleges in the US, and none are over 80k a year. And that's the vanishingly small minority; the largest colleges in the US are in-state schools with large populations paying (generally) under ~10k/year. For my state (NY, an expensive one), it's almost exactly 10k[1]. Even for out-of-state, it's well under half of 80k (with everything included, not just tuition).
