Our “colleges” and “universities” are nothing more than expensive whorehouses these days. A place for Student Loan Deadbeats to go to party and spend the taxpayers’ money.
Go survive 4 years fighting with whackadoos trying to indoctrinate me to get 100K of debt, or go to a trade school for 2 years or less and make as much or more money on a job that can’t be offshored....
Gee.. I wonder why enrollment is down
all jobs should remain if the merger goes through
Doesn't sound like just desserts to me...
Higher education by and large is the epicenter of societal collapse. Stave the beast.
Excellent article.
My local community college was only $450 per semester when I went to school.
My college was $3,500 a semester. That was considered pricey at the time.
Now it is something like $35,000 a semester.
I sent two of my five kids to Bucknell. College, not just that college, is a scam. It cost about $300,000 to send a kid through Bucknell now. Outside of the non-stop party, you learn nothing that Google couldn’t teach you. Sent another kid to Hopkins. A chemical engineer, she got out of school and decided that the jobs Chem E.s do are not fun. They are all employed. But they would have been employed anyway. You can send a kid to a boot-camp or trade school. There is nothing college teaches that is worth that kind of time or money.
They went after big pharma because junkies misused their legal products. Perhaps they should go after big academia for the student loan issue. It certainly isn’t a matter for taxpayers to pay.
Graduated in ‘81. Today I’d go to the best auto shop and beg to learn.
