Burlington College Feels the Bern! Will Close Thanks to Crushing Debt Acquired by Mrs. Bernie Sanders
One of the reasons Bernie Sanders is doing well with Millennials is because he’s promising free college for everyone.

Feel the Bern!...
The progressive trickery of calling any and all spending, "investments", regardless of the ROI to the school or students. Naturally, each school president probably benefited personally, as well as the "trustees" agreeing to waste, I'm sure.
To avoid confusion she should be referenced as Comrade (Jane) Sanders so as not to be confused with Comrade (Blockhead Bernie) Sanders!

This thread sucks without Nelson.
| Great post! What justice: Bernie and Jane -- friends of Lenin, Stalin, and Mao -- have totally destroyed a lovely New England college. But not to worry happy graduates. No need to get a doctorate in astrophysics. All the knowledge you need is contained in one little red book! Look at how far it's taken Bernie! Such a marvelous equality is realized in a society where everyone takes from the rich and gives to the poor. The Robin Hoods steal from the Robin Hoods till nobody needs to go to college anyway. Get your hunting rifles, washing boards, berry baskets, maple syrup buckets, and axes so you can live comfortably in the (mild climate) Burlington, Vermont forest. If you want to read more of my foolishness, I posted a vanity: Bernie's Youth Brigade and China's Cultural Revolution. |
Where can one go now to get a college degree in woodworking?
Not surprised at all. Wonder if Champlain College is still around? UVM is. Full of libs.

“Any college that goes broke today with unlimited federal lending, should be laughed out of America.”
Isn’t this why they want free college to continue their chow down on the government trough?

BTW, wasn’t Bernie the idiot who wanted to make Lake Champlain part of the Great Lakes or was that Leahy?
Interesting list.
Add any Ivy League school. Also, UC Davis and UC Santa Cruz!
