A small percentage of people know it’s a racket.

Yes, but in college, they spell it “racquet.”

100% yes. Only for a small minority of student does it pay off. The rest need to learn a trade and get a job.

If school cost $10 thousand dollars a year, and after 4 years you have an art history degree, then you are in debt for $40 thousand dollars. Good luck paying that off with any job that you get with an art history degree.

Yeah, when Johnny gets a degree in English and his thesis is on “The Meaning of the Word Shit” or on “How to Climb a Tree,” then you know he is qualified for some high-paying job in the produce department of some grocery store. Johnny will say, “What a lucky bugger I am! I’m glad college got me this far. I was starting to have my doubts.”

Grades are inflated because tuition is so high. Professors give students a break on final grades, since everyone knows that students will need a lifetime to pay back the loans on a $200,000 degree. Sure, give them A’s and B’s and hope they get tough under the yoke of a huge loan. Very sad, really. The Apollo 11 involved three million parts, 400,000 workers in 50 states and an average age of 25. Few Apollo workers had college degrees, since there was a small group of designers hired from the best colleges like Cal, MIT and UCLA. Today, colleges are losing customers and demolishing dorms.

My son is about to graduate with his associates in teaching. I had harder homework assignments in 6th grade. Glad I never wasted time in collage.

College used to mean something, but like everything else Democrats touch it was perverted to their own ends. They do these things while we are all distracted (as by the Rittenhouse verdict currently), meanwhile they are busy covering up their past crimes. I read an article over at TheFederalist about that, “Whistleblower Videos Capture Pennsylvania Election Officials Destroying Evidence”, so give that a look. We need full forsenic audits of all 50 states so we can root out the election fraud for good. The truth is this started decades ago when communists infiltrated colleges, MSM, government schools and the Democrat Party.

Went to college from the Fall of 1967 until the Spring of 1971 when the wages of a decent Summer time job would pay for one semester’s tuition. And everyone went home during breaks instead of vacation hot spots.

It was a different time.
