“There should be a method for an accredited degree to be bestowed based on objective test scores, not leftist indoctrination.”

I get what you are saying and many of us have discussed the alternatives to education outside of the traditional university, but, frankly, the problem isn’t the universities, it is the businesses that hire the graduates.

If we would demand a high standard and only hire graduates that met the standard, universities would be forced to teach instead of indoctrinate and be the money machines they are today.

You guys remind me of a computer sales associate I met in Office Depot years ago. He was a gothic disheveled technical geek with dirty fingernails. Somehow the discussion of college came up and he told me, “they should give me a degree because I know all that business and computer stuff.” I smiled politely and left. I believe he still works for Office Depot.

All this talk of universities not teaching and their being money machines is hysterical coming from non-college graduates!

I guess they should just, “give you a degree” based on some test? Like the MCSE? Because you know THAT is worth the paper it’s printed on!
