Colleges have turned into greedy money indoctrination centers. In the 70s, it was cheaper to send your kid to college than to house him in the basement. Tuition at my state university was $3/hr making a regular 3 hr course $9. As a reference, minimum wage was $2.30/hr. Taking 18-21 hr/sem and going summers could shave off 1.5 years to graduate early saving $$$. That was before today’s high school AP classes but then we didn’t have to take all the hooey woke stuff. It was $7/semester to have a dorm room without a roommate (don’t get me started on wacko roommates). Students worked or volunteered as support staff. Today, students turn down campus jobs because they pay lowly insulting minimum wage and only take 9 hs/sem whining that’s too hard.
Those who can, do.
Those who can’t, teach.
Those who can’t do either, administrate .
I’d love to know how many of these ‘administrators’ were unemployed Democrat politicians.
Let me re-phrase. It is hard for CIS gendered white people to get into the poison Ivy League of reprobates.
This kind of waste can be documented for just about every college/university in the country...
