Why just the problems? Doesn't this story have two sides, like most 
stories do?

Student loans put this SC farm boy through graduate school at the
University of Chicago. Paid them back without hassle or sign of 
bureaucracy or malfeasance.

Why do I suspect this side of the story won't win any headlines but 
that any problems you uncover probably will?

Silly me. Overlooked the consumer advocacy alert. Those stories don't 
get to have two sides.
