What a load. Do you think everyone of those 500 was capable of getting a college degree. Consider yourself blessed. I know that where I work less than 50% could get a degree. In anything. As someone said "Higher education is by definition only for some people." Actually increasing the enrollment at the colleges/universities lowers the level of "higher" education for everyone.

At my university they had a fine degree for those who didn't belong in college: exercise science. Don't mistake this with a 'hard' degree like Sports Medicen. No this was for those with the bottom edge SATs. I dated a girl who had one of those "degrees". Her job? Selling gym memberships....yup, because she knew the proper way to do a pushup and it only cost daddy $20K.
