“Higher” Education?
I only graduated from High School but at a time and in a school that actually taught things useful to learn.
Now Colleges seem to be mostly about indoctrination, propaganda and fleecing the American public with outrageous costs provided through the Gov’t.
I’m glad I didn’t go.
83% of high school students everywhere are unready for college and never will be. It not the fault of the high schools, its the inadequate IQ’s of the students themselves. Not more than 10% of high school student can actually benefit from a BA/BS, which is why so many are unemployed.
