Ain't gonna happen. The only way to beat these creeps is through competition. That means home education. We have to be so good that the system will tolerate us. The mere existence of a market in home education will drive creation of the virtual university. The success of its graduates will create a groundswell to get in. Bricks and mortar institutions will then be an anachronism. The public will see them as the fiscal black hole that they are and cut off the money.

The entire educational system in this country must collapse. It's the only way.

As with the ABOR and the Georgia Senate Resolution, I was referring to higher education, not pre-school, primary, or secondary education. (Note: this is not to detract from your contention above in any way... ;-)

Why, you educational anarchist, you... ;-)
