Young men and women today are paying $50,000 plus per year to go to colleges that I never heard of. It is unconscionable.

No, it's not.

Those colleges stay in business because there are plenty of people who are gullible enough to pay that much money to attend them. People need to grow up and figure these things out for themselves.

You lack credibility when you are unable to properly spell Womyn’s Studies.

Parents and students;

Remember that the college counselors work for the school and have the school’s interests and not yours foremost in their minds when you are picking degrees and classes.

Their main job is the fill the classrooms of the teachers of uselessness. While the classrooms of the useful are normally over filled.

The American college or university campus presents a charming fantasy world. The model is based on the traditions of medieval England and 18th century Germany, with all the lovely trappings of those times (ivy-covered Gothic buildings etc). It's understandable that young persons aspire to it.

But by now, any parent with a lick of sense should realize that the ivy-covered buildings have become indoctrination factories ... and very expensive ones at that.

Parents need to stop fueling these brain-washing centers by boycotting them, unless they are seriously reformed.

Schools that offer a good education for the money, e.g. Hillsdale and Grove City, would continue to thrive; but bad schools need to go out of business en masse.

Come on now. Even “reputable” colleges don’t publish their job placement rates.

Great point! I suggest EVERY “flipper” show be sued. Especially “Magnolia Homes” in Waco. Most of the “flipping” is totally false. For instance, the people don’t go out and shop for houses. The “client” already owns the house they’re going to flip.

Every “flip this house” type show is fraudulent.

As for universities, they’re all for the money.

If there really was good $$$ to be made relatively easily, then every good real estate agent and building contractor would be in on this racket. And as far as the colleges, as I've stated on another thread, wait until the participation trophy winning snowflakes realize their masters in Ubangi transgendered studies, Aztec lesbian drum beating or whatever irrelevancy they're majoring in wouldn't qualify them to be Starbucks barristas at minimum wage. They will forget the butthurt they feel over Trump's victory because they'll really have something to cry about. And that's another terrible disservice the diploma mills are doing to these lost souls. All the safe zones, diaper pins, therapy animals, privilege shaming and hot chocolate in the world will not ease the real problems they will face in the real world.
