Yes.
idk, but didn't tim just do a vid on evergreen...
I think it was 17 that closed last year.
I'm watching it.
wait what
I'm wondering what that looks like...
17 colleges out?
Yeah, the whole sector is in deep trouble.
see this whole 'get woke, go broke" tells me they are not controlling the norms
y'know...
It's mostly small colleges no one has heard of though.
I just had a laugh at that, pratel.
try as they might
Ironically, the more right-leaning ones.
I really shouldn't have.
The one affiliated with Bernie Sander's wife wnet bankrupt and closed. That was a minor controversy actually as there were some sketchy loans approved near the end of it all.
Yeah, I'm wondering about the colleges with sprawling campuses.
Ones with dormatories.
That would include the ones that were closed.
The big state schools aren't closing, they have too much grip on state politicians and too much money.
Harvard thinks there will be half as many Unis in 2030 as there are now.
I have to wonder how bad they can hurt before the politicians call it though...
Forever.
What do you think "free college for all" does?
destroys us.
devalues college to bascially being a high school diploma
Also correct.
lowers the quality, and creates a giant burden on the taxpayers
Tbh at some point the political parties have to be upended, on one side or the other
Eliminates competition between colleges.
They should be, Beemann
But it's a 'You First' standoff.
There's too many "this exists because why would politicians vote against it" scenarios
That's why, right now, we need to try to reform one party
and I don't think we'll get very far with the Democrats.
It also crystallizes Social Justice forever and makes college even more important for getting a good job.
As I've said
Get involved with the Republican Party.
A political party is it's membership.
