Inept Colleges

Too many schools market themselves by appealing to the baser instincts of students. The idea is to fill the rosters by making it easier to attend. So many graduates are unable to find real, practical jobs. Or why we have so many with easy-to-get law degrees and few who are doctors and scientists.

Affirmative action is practiced, not just for conventional minorities. It is there for any group that is not equally represented on attendance roles.

The truth is, few undergraduate students have celebrity professors. They often are taught, instead, by graduate students.

In fact, Colleges and universities engage in "bait and switch;" confer what are actually deficient degrees, and engage in other practices that would bring legal sanctions if done in any other business.

Parents and taxpayers pay billions of dollars to colleges and universities. Schools make money whether students learn or not, whether students graduate or not, and whether they get good jobs after leaving school, or not.
