No one can figure out how and why America's youth have borrowed a collective $1 trillion for college tuition, and yet received so little education and skills in the bargain. Today's campuses have become as foreign to American traditions of tolerance and free expression as what followed the Weimar Republic. To appreciate cry-bully censorship, visit a campus "free-speech" area. To witness segregation, walk into a college "safe space." To hear unapologetic anti-Semitism, attend a university lecture. To learn of the absence of due process, read of a campus hearing on alleged sexual assault. To see a brown shirt in action, watch faculty call for muscle at a campus demonstration. To relearn the mentality of a Chamberlain or Daladier, listen to the contextualizations of a college president. And to talk to an uneducated person, approach a recent college graduate

Incredible what has happened to our universities.

Hanson's wrong and he really should know better than to talk like an idiot; I mean, he has worked as a history prof. at Calif. Univ. Fullerton. OK so he may not think very much of what he and his colleagues taught but the market place sure does.  While talk is easy hard money has to go where it counts and U.S. univ. grads make twice what high school grads make. 

He whines that folks that went to college now owe a total of $1.2T in student loan debt.  Big flippin' deal.  Back here on the Planet Earth the ones that owe that debt are earning $5T more than the highschool grads.  Every year.  Let's think.  For $1.2T in debt for life, we get an extra $5T every year, for life. 

That's good.
