“Higher” education?
WAY too long and WAY too expensive.
When will see some no talent academics hauled before Congress for the unending upward spiral in the cost of education?
I did not finish college and I have done very, very well in my 30 year High Tech career.
Enough said.
“When will see some no talent academics hauled before Congress for the unending upward spiral in the cost of education?”
That won’t happen. Education costs are driven by government policy. For example, I got an MBA which my employer paid for 100%. Did my employer do this out to the goodness of their hearts? Companies have no heart. They did it because the tax codes made it too attractive not to do it. Did my company care what the courses cost? No. I could have gone to Lilly-put U or Harvard. They reimbursed 100%. Since they didn’t care one wit what the cost was the universities can charge whatever they want. I know adjunct professors making $60-80k and the retirement benefits (state) are unbelievable.
That’s just one aspect.
Now, from the school’s perspective, why would they want to lower their cost to students? Students can get loans out the whazoo. Do they care whether the student is saddled with debt? Caveat emptor.
