um... a high graduation rate to me implies they are just giving diplomas away.

I don’t think I would be advertising such a thing.

Come to our college... we give you a worthless piece of paper after you have learned nothing!

If that’s the case, why would they be accredited? (one of the criteria of this survey ).

You are wrong. Rice University in Houston is hardly a dlploma mill. When our son graduated from that excellent institution, it was remarkable to see students from all over the world, but especially Asia, receiving their degrees in every branch of science and math. They don’t give those away.

40 years ago, I actually had to think hard and work hard for a BA, MA and PhD. Now all you have to do is show up and parrot back politically correct answers. Independent thinking is more likely to be punished than rewarded.

I’m very certain that Cal Tech does NOT just hand out diplomas. They accept 11% of applicants, and 3/4 of their successful applicants have SAT math scores over 770. Most have perfect SAT math scores.
