Liberal Universities exist today to allow people who have the money to pay for an education but do not have the intelligence to actually assimilate or even comprehend said education to buy a diploma.

In what other employ do white collar employees get "tenure" and are guaranteed a job for life regardless of performance?
In what other employ does a worker get to send his kids to college tuition free?

But there were also some objections, to which I'd like to respond. Some of these were serious. Some were not at all serious -- despite their having been made by people who evidently take themselves pretty seriously. The Professors Weigh In To take the latter...

For improved accuracy, the word "Dominated" in the headline needs to be changed to "Infested".
