Seems like some journalist may have skimped on their geographical education spending, last time I drove to Los Angeles I only had to cross county lines not state.
Is anyone really surprised? Colleges have been turning into a money pit for students and more of fun and indoctrination centers. So many 'students' use their outrageous student loans to fund parties, trips and toys instead of a foundation for the future and then bitch, moan and cry that they can't get a decent job with their degree in minority studies, Gaia worship or a Masters in masturbation and want the taxpayer to bail them out of their stupidity.
And This is what these rec centers, dining halls, and other over the top amenities are all about....attracting students who have approx. $8k/year in federal loan dollars to spend.
