Kinda looks to me like college campuses are choked with “students” who don’t want to be there, who have little to no interest in learning anything, and as a consequence have way too much time on their hands.

Due to the insistence that everyone must attend college, many college "students" first have to take one or more years of remedial courses, which is just high school level work. What they failed to take responsibility for in high school must be taken over in order to prepare to take actual college level courses. Thus, you have a lot of people on campus who (1) just aren't very bright and (2) are there because they were propped up with being able to repeat work they previously failed.

They don't belong in college, yet you and I must subsidize their courses there. Such a caliber of "student" must always be on the lookout for someone--other than themselves--to blame for their problems. This is how you wind up with these pathetically lame "Blame it on whitey" or whoever movements. The dummies don't realize that they are being USED by people a whole lot smarter than they are in order to sow discord and disorder, the better to pave the way for a lot more sinister plans of their puppet masters. It is appalling that even students at Harvard, Yale, etc. are being hoodwinked into this nonsense. Too bad they don't teach critical thinking any more.

Wait until it is free and mandatory. It will make Gitmo look like Disney land.
