The “College for Everyone” crowd is pulling a huge scam. They realize that college isn’t for everyone and that many of these kids would be better off in entry level jobs or trade school Those unqualified students who get pushed into it will walk away with NO degree and (maybe) lots of debt. As a bonus, they will also be indoctrinated and bitter — ripe for recruitment by groups like Antifa & OWS. Which is maybe the real goal. That and keeping the cartel of indoctrinators (e.g., leftist professors) funded & employed.

Good comment.
Perhaps the college would have better outcomes if they would replace any remaining Chemistry, Biology, Engineering classes with more in Basket Weaving, Floral Arrangement and Gender Studies.
“The “College for Everyone” crowd is pulling a huge scam.”
Loan debt and embitterment are bonuses, you are correct.
What I find the most interesting is that this failure rate in LA is certain to be repeated in every other Lib area. But what about a little further out of town? You know, all those Red counties. I’ll bet the young folks in those areas would perform much better. Point being this leftist “free college for all BS” would end up benefiting the “white supremacist nazis” more than the useful idiots on the left.
If all colleges would simply raise the bar and insist that only A and B average students got in....then the yearly entry number would likely drop by probably 40-percent. You’d have colleges then going back to the way that they were prior to the 1960s. Course, you would also be laying off probably one-third of all professors.
