awww....too bad...so sad.
It's too bad it's not happening sooner.
it's so sad it's only half of them..

Colleges and universities are increasingly anti human. They've been anti free market for a long time .

Not to speak of the 'student loan trap' which has seriously complicated the lives of millions of people.

On line education has made them irrelevant anyway...

Sort:  

It's interesting to see how irrelevant colleges and universities have become over the past 15 years. I would not give up that time of my life though. I had more fun than 99% of the human population during those days.

The student loan issue has been on for so long, alot of students repay these loans for most of their useful work life. I hope these changes soon.

Good news, then! I can only hope the UK colleges go bust as well... too infiltrated with leftist ideas copied from the US.

education is one thing, but indoctrination should be one of those few things regulated to prevent it.

I have three degrees, two of them engineering degrees. It's clear we need education. It's not clear at all how universities can defy all reason and raise tuition above the rate of inflation. It should be regulated to only be able to raise by inflation...

That said, there are many useless degrees. Communications and General Studies are two that come to mind. We should move toward more of the German model of apprentices. 50% of the Germans get an apprentice in anything from tool design, tool making to hair dresser or administrative assistant. Practical training is what most of our young people need to give them an actual skill set.

I have my 18 year old nephew and his 19 year buddy living in my basement. They don't have any skill except for being slobs. Seriously. I've never seen two messier young men than these two. But I will prevail in helping train them to be functional adults:)

at one time the Army and the marines did that. (The ChairForce and the Navy's higher standards prevented them from being accepted).

education is one thing, but indoctrination is pretty much the same thing. It would depend on your political or religious orientation.

yup...you're preaching to the choir.

I hope so it should get prevented

good riddance

tear it down to the foundation and rebuild

rebuild....into a paintball field...or perhaps a park..

Hopefully this means some of that student loan debt will go away too!!!!

Hopefully this means
