You're right. One of my kids has a computer science degree. He really had no need for a course in women's studies! (He didn't actually take that one, but it was an option).

I think that these colleges are going to price themselves right out of the market. More and more students are going to turn to practical and less costly choices like tech schools.

well mine was a technical school. It is on the verge of overpricing itself. Everything all together was about 35 large a year.

But you are right prices will destroy a lot of crappy colleges that don't need to be around. It will also prevent kids from going to them that don't belong or who wouldn't get their money's worth. Then they will become "respectable" again then everyone will start going, then it'll die out again, and on and on :)
