On line universities (ie: U of Phoenix etc.) are the answer. IMHO most degrees are a waste of money anyway. Unless you go into medicine, law or something like engineering that requires specialty courses the rest of college is just structured reading of some tenured professors lame excuse for his course textbook. Sitting in 500 person lecture halls is also a huge waste of time. Truth be known, most ‘students’ never work in their discipline anyway. How many Sub-continental Indian art majors can the world need to augment the Black History and Womyns studies PHD’s? Since they are going to be living in their parents basement anyway they might as well just take their laptop down with them and hit one of the on-line universities while they are at it.
Online Universities (like U of Phoenix) are very expensive. Our kid earned his bachelors and masters w/out a penny of tuition (dual credit at community college for AA, state university w/merit scholarship for BA, and teaching assistant in exchange for tuition for graduate degree.) He lived at home and commuted, gas and books were his only expense. We’re fortunate we have 4 Universities in the area.
U of Phoenix, per hour for a bachelors is equal to what manythink they charge around $550 per hour for a bachelors in business management.)
