Springfield College

Springfield College has a major claim to fame, as the birthplace of basketball and home of alum James Naismith who invented the game in 1891. Not too shabby! It’s also the birthplace of volleyball, with inventor William Morgan attending in 1894. However, a four year degree here nowadays costs $174,700 and its 30 year ROI is -$101,000, so unless you’re looking at a future NBA salary, it might not be so worth it.
