I've said for a long time now that a substantial portion of today's college students are not really cut out for the rigors of higher education.

Unfortunately, there's enormous pressure on young people based on the maxim that EVERYONE has to go to college. The only acceptable reason not to go is because you don't have the money.

Higher education and its promotion is a giant scam.

But by all means, let's keep blaming the kids.
