Prepaid plans let parents lock in tuition by paying for it now, protecting them against rising costs.

In Ohio, the price of one year's tuition for a child over 12 months old is $8,000, more than 40% above current tuition at Ohio State. So it may not be a good deal for children starting college in three or four years because tuition may not jump that much that fast.
Prepaid college tuition is generally designed on the principle that ______.
