That is what the SAT tests are for, weeding out the fraudulent graduates.

Plus, there are tons of college degrees that cost alot but are worthless.

I see Biology and Earth Science majors with BS’s working at the gym as trainers.

That is NOT going to pay the student loans back.

Of course, the answer is for the Federal government to spend 1/2 trillion dollars to send everyone to college. Push the failure forward.

“A lot of schools are looking to fill seats. They’re looking for warm bodies.”

If they were wasting their own money, I wouldn't care. However, taxpayers are footing the bill for all the inflated charges and fees.

A college degree, even a technical degree, is now useless for getting a job. Each employer is likely to give you a test. The one I took was like an eighth grade final, though much of it was fractions and simple addition. When I asked my head hunter, he said the test regularly eliminated college graduates from the local historically black college. He thought that if they challenged it, the company would lose because, to his knowledge, the test had only so far eliminated black candidates. But, the company had cut its turnover by a huge amount.

Now companies are requiring professional certification for jobs like QA engineer or program management. These are private companies (ASQC and PMP) who administer tests and the continuing education scam. You must get their certification to be considered for a job and then spend a couple of thousand per year in education to maintain the certification. The certification is in addition to the, now useless, college degree.

She explains that she rarely showed up for a Government class that was scheduled first period at 8am. Due to the early hour she only showed up a handful of times and never turned in any work. She even missed the final exam.

When inquiring about the final exam make up date she was told by her guidance counselor Mr. Ortiz that her teacher had already passed her – and then congratulated her.


Congratulations. You are breathing.

Does not surprise me. At my college, we are seeing increasing numbers of kids who definitely should not be here. Almost all are classified as disabled, so (per Federal law) we have to accommodate them. The result is chaos. They either fail their classes or cannot finish them. If the latter, we have to give them incompletes, which they typically never complete.

In some cases, my jaw drops when I deal with these kids. They are in such bad shape (psychologically) that is hard to believe the school is taking their money. Not sure if greed, regulations (or both) is driving in. Whatever the cause, it is a disgrace.

A high school diploma and a college degree are worth nothing today. Minorities don’t need to know anything to get a job - they are given jobs they don’t qualify for. Whitey will get to do the work, while the minorities will get a salary.

We pretend to teach.
You pretend to learn.

It’s a win win.

Academia’s credibility and cost are heading in opposite directions at warp speed.
