Now we find out who is the grasshopper. And who is the ant.

One of the annoying this about journalism, in my opinion, is the assumption that things “should” always remain the same, and that it’s “news” if they don’t.
There are also many smaller conservative or religion based schools which are much stronger...they might be able upgrade their campuses at a fraction of the cost of building their own...hopefully many state owned state colleges will go banckrupt and the liberal stranglehold on higher ed will be broken.
So many universities have devolved into awarding pointless fluff degrees with no market value that they should be branded diploma mills and sued for fraudulent misrepresentation. They certainly shouldn’t be eligible for financial aid or loans for such degrees, when there’s no real hope of future income sufficient to repay the loan.
There’s no real comparison between the two schools. Concord has about 2,000 students. It has never had much more than that. WV has never exceeded two million in population.

And they’ve not yet felt the impact of online education.
People are slowly catching on to the scam(s) of higher education.

Notre Dame isn’t Catholic anymore. Brandeis was never actually Jewish and is increasingly anti-Israel.
