11. Get your "Doctorate in Social Justice" at UMass!
Ha, ha. I worked at UMass Amherst as a SysOp/SysAdmin for a long time (I started by reading cards into a mainframe-attached card reader).

We had on-line wackos you wouldn't believe -- for example the very last graduate of the School of Education's "Future Studies" program, predatory homosexuals, incompetent management, abusive unions, and rule by minority victim-groups.

At the same time staff were required to attend these "Diversity Training" sessions -- taught by America-hating, capitalism-hating, and white-male-hating leftards. While we sat across the table from a three-fer* manager who was astoundingly ignorant and who treated the staff like crap.

To be fair, you can get a good education there, but you have to dig through a lot of chaff to find the wheat.

But maybe I'm biased because my former dept. was a dumping ground for other departments' human waste.

It was worth the huge pay cut to bail out of that cesspool...
