-— American “higher education.” Never have so many invested so much for so little that is decent, real, or useful. -—

Well said.

Looking at it another way, Who is more of an idiot, the student majoring in sociology, or the parent paying the tuition?

Both of my kids are working their way through and commuting. Otherwise, I’m not wasting a dime on college.

I haven’t paid a nickel either, and my two oldest have degrees. For whatever that’s worth.

I think the parent paying the tuition is part of the problem. It’s bad that parents are expected to pay their kid’s way through school and it’s wrong that parents are somehow suckered into paying for asinine fluff degrees.

My kids, if I have them, will pay their own way.
