Nobody went into debt for college. You either saved money in advance or worked your way through.
The Federal government has been loaning money directly to college students since 1958 and has been guaranteeing bank-originated student loans since 1965.

Tapping a phone was difficult, both technically and legally, and you could safely assume your phone calls and letters were private.
The Church Committee reported in 1975 and 1976 that the CIA and FBI had been wiretapping and intercepting mail without warrants. The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act was not passed until 1978.
